I fell pregnant with #1 when i was 14 and gave birth at 15. Now expecting #2 and currently 17 and bub will be born when im 18. People are shocked to learn how young i am as i dont look my age i have always looked older. I didnt get too much grief during my 1st pregnancy, The hospital was great and the midwives asked me what i wanted to do and listened to me. Everything went great, I had no problems everything was text book. My mum wasnt supportive untill i was almost due to give birth, But my Dad shocked me and he supported me since i told him. Being so young was a bit of a challenge and yes it was hard but we got through it. People ask me "are you still with the father" like they are expecting me to say no, Actually yes i am and plan to be for a long time. I had more problems with my friends then with anyone else, Once you have a baby all your friends are "too busy" for you or you just dont hear from them ever again. It deffinately shows you who your true friends are.
Having been there and done that (well doing it again lol) i wish all young parents good luck. Its not easy but its deffinately worth it.
