What advice would you give to your mum just before she gave birth to you?

If you could go back in time before you were born.

You go first 🙂

Please have me adopted. I didn't deserve the life you inflicted upon me.

Spend as much time as you can walking or squatting. I'm back to back and I'm looking the wrong way.
Also sorry!!!!

I know you don't want a 2nd child but don't be a dick

Get yourself to the big hospital in town as soon as you go into labour.

Invest in Apple

Amazing 😂

I know I was a “mistake” and you thought your family was complete, but you chose to continue with the pregnancy so please don’t fucking remind me every day of my life how I ruined your life.

Please don't have my sisters...

Please leave my dad (don't wait 45 years) it's not in my best interest to stay with an abusive father).

Crack on luv. Your life won't be the same without me!

Reduce your salt intake. Deal with your own family trauma so you don’t repeat the cycle on us. Remember it’s completely normal for teenagers to act like twats. Don’t take what they say personally. Telling your teenage daughters how little you weighed after giving birth isn’t helpful.
Don’t listen to the dr, speak your mother tongue. We’ll learn how to speak English when we start school.

Don't tell me you love me because you're my mother but that you don't like me

don't spank me or slap my face

don't laugh at me and call me huffy any time I express negative emotion

don't call me a slut

Don't tell me the family have more fun without me when I'm not around

Don't read my diary and write mean things in the margins

You're amazing and I'm going to be the luckiest kid around but please stop worrying so much.

dont hate me for how your life is

How about your thoughts too OP?

Remember this feeling. I'm your baby, not a threat. You'll do a very good job if you keep your temper in check. We can do this. He only becomes my favourite because you engineer it that way. You don't have to be maternal, just stay on my side.

You’ll die before you get to see me flourish in adulthood and motherhood so let’s not waste my teenage years butting heads. Advice to my younger self too 🥺

Always wear sunscreen.
And get that dodgy looking mole on your shoulder checked out as soon as you notice it, rather than leaving it until it’s too late.

My father is going to be a multimillionaire - are you SURE you don't want to accept his proposal?!

Don't assume you can't do this on your own, don't settle for the first man who shows an interest because you think no one else will want you with 2 kids. It will be a massive mistake and eventually result in you losing the daughter you're about to give birth to because you didn't protect her from the man you married. He will bring nothing good to your life and you and your babies deserve better.

We are only going to have 16 years together, lets make the most of it even though our personalities are quite different.

Be honest with yourself about your sexuality and leave my Dad much earlier - you'll be happier for it, he's an arsehole and he'll never change.

Get yourself and my sister screened for ASD, get me screened for ADHD.

Try not to be the emotionally absent, hyper critical, spiteful person that you ended up being - then you won't be lonely in your old age (both my and Sister are NC for years).

This one is perfect, as you will come to realise ... but please don't make that quite so obvious to the others 😀
Also, don't do the drinking thing after dad dies. 🙂Then you might live to see my wonderful children - you'd have been a fantastic grandmother.

Please treat me as an individual, not just as my sister’s younger sibling. I don’t want to spend my entire childhood in second place, the same but less good.
