My husband has a 2 1/2 year old son with his ex. I have a 14 month old daughter with my ex. My husband has been around for me since the end of my pregnancy and we got married when my daughter was 5 months old. He has always treated her well and has stepped up to take care of her when my ex didn't. When I went into this relationship initially, my step son was 1 1/2 years old. He had a history of abuse by his moms boyfriend, was neglected by his mom. She used to lock him in his room in the play pen so she could drink and so drugs.

Hi there! I'm brand new here. I'm also a first time mom to a beautiful daughter who just turned 11 months old. But with becoming a mother, I also became a step mother. In which I struggle with.
