I CAME HERE ON A VISITING VISA OVERSTAYED FOR TWO YEARS, DECIDED TO GO TO SCHOOL AFTER A YEAR AND GOT LOST IN THE COLLEGE FUN LIFE.  WENT BACK TO HOME OUT THE COUNTRY WITH MY COLLEGE FRIENDS AND WE BAG PACK THROUGH MEXICO. CAME BACK IN TIME FOR OUR ANNUAL BACK TO SCHOOL EXTRAVANGANZA IN TJ.RIGHT NEXT TO THE SAN DIEGO. I LATER FOUND OUT THAT WAS THE US BORDER. 

I NOW HAVE GROWN, GOT MARRIED WITH MY FAMILY AND IS REALIZING I MAY BE IN BIG TROUBLE. WHAT HOPE DO I HAVE? SO SCARY SITUATION! VERY EMOTIONAL JOURNEY. MY FAMILY NEEDS ME.

Your family are presumably with you?

Good to hear

yes they are. my husband and  my new born were born here.

If your family is with you...I'm not sure I understand the part where you said "My family needs me", then, if you are already all together?

Your husband (I assume he is a USC or LPR) can file for the CR-1 spouse visa, if your plans are to move to the USA.

Sounds like you need to leave asap. US does not have exit controls so you should be OK.

Well back packed in, not sure what the difference is.

When you overstayed on the tourist visa for 2 years and then went back to your home country, you would have triggered the 10 year ban.

 

Crossing the border without inspection the second time (and before the 10 year bar was up), was not a wise choice as you know now.

 

You have no legal status to adjust from right now...you will have to leave the US and file for a waiver first to do things the legal way.
