I got pregnant at 18 and had my DD at 19. I'm now 20 and currently TTC #2.
I know I'm young, but when I fell pregnant we were married, both working full-time and the baby was planned!
When I say I had a baby at 19 people think DH and I were irresponsible and got pregnant by accident. I live in a small town and the teen pregnancy rate is high. People here have a very judgemental view of young mothers. But I don't identify myself with that stereotype. DH has an excellent job, we have a nice house, nice cars and we live comfortably. We don't go out partying. In fact, going out by ourselves is saved for very special occassions (engagement parties, etc).
People are often surprised to hear that we are young parents because we don't fit the image that they have in their mind of what a young parent is.
