I used to feel that way, now I don't like being away from my daughter for even a night to go out with my friends. Once the baby came I fell in love with being a mom and never thought twice about what I "missed out" on :)

I had my first son right before my 19th birthday. I watched my friends do so many things that I couldn't. It was hard! I won't lie- Im about to turn 30 (pregnant with #3) and I still look back at times and think of the opportunities Ive missed out on to be a mom. It's going to be okay though. I always think of it like this.....there is NOBODY in this world or in your lifetime you will love more than your children. By having them young, you just get that many more years with them. It gives you more time with the one person you love more than anything. I have friends that are just now having children. Say I have as many years on this earth as they do, Ive gotten another decade to spend loving my child than they will. When you are looking back on your life that is what will matter. Not living a few years in some dorm room or some keg party. Chin up....

I'm going through the same thing but I know that I'm going through this for a reason. I know that once my baby is hear I'll be able to go to college and make him proud to have a mom that never gave up (:

Wait your turn. College isn't going anywhere

I feel the exact same way! I'm so excited to have my baby but at the same time I wish I could experience that too.
