Motherhood is not a new thing to me when I got my own family

I got pregnant at 20 and gave birth in the same age nine months after. My eldest daughter is kind of a birthday gift from my husband to me at that time haha. But yeah, you read it right, motherhood duties are not new to me when I got my own family. Maybe I unknowingly wanted to have my own at that time. I nanny my nephews and nieces whenever I needed to. **when I was 5 years old** I already had a nephew to look at, his name is Jovannie. 5 years age gap is not so far and I was thinking that he is my younger brother since I'm the youngest in us four. His mother was the eldest at that tie and she was in charge of looking out for me when our parents are at work during day time. Jovannie now

**few years later** Princess Jhemimah came, my eldest niece. But all of a sudden my sister's World collapsed when she noticed that the child is having siezures and later, the doctor confirmed that the child has cerebral palsy. Her health is poor and she had been admitted to the hospital few times before she reached 10, by the way she's 14 years old now.

When she was younger, I was the one that cut her nails first at two months old. I baby sitted her, I made he drink in milk bottle, I made her burp and carry her around, I also make her sleep. When she poops, I change her diapers, I learn by watching how my sister does it and when I do it, she corrects some of the ways that I do wrong **Alexis came** Few years after, another sister gave birth, she was teaching in Valencia City as an elementary teacher and had her first child. She took leave of absence few adays before her EDD, expected date of delivery, and went home. Few days after, she felt the contractions and was taken to the hospital. She gave birth shortly and I was her watcher.

**Andrea Came** Ther is only over a year age gap of the two siblings and mother was asked to look for them. I have my sistetoo bust she had different schedules. She wakes up late and so my mother had hard times looking out for the kids especially when she had something to do. There was even once that I just came from school and Andrea fell to the ground because my other sister was busy with her phone and I am busy with something too. Mother blamed me for it like I was the only one around. The couple decided to leave the children to my mother and they will come home weekly, later on, that decision changed when she had an accident whilr going back to her house there. So they brought the children back home, his husband sacrificed a lot. He was selling steert foods while tending to the children. **then I became pregnant** With all those years of training, haha so funny. I never had a hard time tending to my child. After I gave birth, I was ashamed o f lending my mother's hand in my child so I did everything I can as a mother. My husband and I didn't live under the same roof at that time so it was a little harder for me than I imagined. Though I don't have to think of where to get my food, taking care of my child is never new to me.

Whenever my nephews and nieces are not feeling well in their time, I always remember the symptoms and the medication, bithe herbal and synthetic. That helped me much on taking care on my children, Thank God they are all having good health through the years and I am praying for them to stay that way. Go had provided all my needs for them and I was blessed to have His grace. How about you, fellow readers, have you had experience in taking care of children before having your own too? All.
