I got married when I was 18 and he was 22 we've been a happily married for two whole years before we decided to start a family. It's not easy but no marriage is no matter how old you are. It's all on how much you're willing to work at end love each other through everything.

My husband and I got married when I was 19 and he was 21 :) we've been married two years now and I am pregnant with our first little babe! I knew right away that he was the one. We got married after being together over a year. Honestly, if he wasn't military we probably would've waited just awhile longer, but the military lifestyle really kinda makes you rush things sometimes. But I do not regret it one bit! He is still my best friend and we are stronger than ever and very happy! :)

I got married the day before my 19th birthday. We had been living together for 3 years before we got married. We have been married for 8 years, celebrated our 8th anniversary this past August. Everything has been fine not perfect but good. We have five girls and a baby on the way... nothing would be better if we would have waited to get married. I think if you are having a baby and in a relationship then you should be married. I am not putting down anyone that is not married. I just feel it is better for a relationship and for your children. My husband and I have a better relationship than before we got married, we truly have more respect for each other... good luck in your decision..

I got married at 19 to my first boyfriend since age of 16 and now I'm going through a divorce at 21 and pregnant with my new boyfriend who is amazing by the way . It works for some but not others you just have to make sure you know what you want

I met my husband when I was 15 and he was 17. I got pregnant 3 months after we got together. We got married a month before my daughters 1st birthday. I was 17 and he was 19. We've been married for 5 months but it doesn't seem any different because we were basically married already because of our daughter.

My husband and I met when we were 13, we were never an on and off again couple so we were together 6 years when we got married at 19. Would have gotten married sooner if we could have, though my parents aren't all for that. We've been married now 2 years, will be 3 this coming April 1st.

I got married at 16, he was 21 and we will be celebrating our 5year wedding anniversary this new years..we've been together since I was 13, im pregnant with our 3rd son and it hasn't always been easy, you will hit bumps in the road big or small but one thing ill say is do not let divorce be an option..it shouldn't be aside from cheating but even then take time to think things through before making moves like that..and most of all we wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for God

I got married at 18; to someone who was 10 yrs older than me. Thinking he was so perfect, turned out he was stealing things from my friends, he was abusive. Alcoholic, did drugs behind my back. So I got divided at 19 and now I'm 21 in a new relationship for about 2 years now, and were expecting our first the same month of our anniversary.

I can't believe how many marry young in America.  

I'm 24 not married but we live together years and have a daughter (5yrs old) & this little guy is due January.  We may aswel of got married because we've a house, family etc...
I just didn't get the  big wedding :(  lol

I think if your going to be living like a married couple why not have a fancy wedding etc? :)
