Ways to make a family

Somehow you became a parent.

You might have spent years battling to get pregnant, or accidentally started a family when you were still a joller yourself. Maybe you adopted your baby, or are sharing responsibility for your partner’s kids.

However you came by your ticket, here we are, on the bus, riding along this scenic but occasionally torrid road together. For Parent24 Editor-in-Chief Sam Wilson, having two babies close to each other was not part of the plan. And for me, the years between my two pregnancies were not supposed to be so many, nor so full of strange little bottles and sharp needles in my ankles. But we’re both sure we wouldn’t change a thing.

How did you become a parent? And are you the kind of parent you hoped to be? Come and share stories with other moms, dads, grandpas and interested aunties.
