Any other teenagers?

I am only 16 years old, but I'm in love with my daughter already. & if anyone says I'm not going to support her, or be a good mom, etc.. You don't need to comment on this post.. I don't have any type of support other than people supporting me to get an abortion.. I cry myself to sleep all the time because of it... I don't talk to either one of my brothers due to the fact they both wanted me to give her up. & I said no. I am supporting my daughter, I'm currently not in school anymore because every single time I stress myself out I bleed, & I have had liver problems since I was 8 years old.. I have depression, bipolar disorder, & anxiety, I was diagnosed by the time I got to elementary due to growing up in a house full of  different types of abuse.. So I need to have some type of friend or anything.. Please comment if you deal with the same or have been in that sort of situation before..

Yes you are young, but you are fully capable of being a great mom. I am 18 in labor hopefully right now with my second baby. I had my daughter when I was 14. And I did keep her. Don't get me wrong, it is hard, but totally worth it. If you ever need anything, you can message me. :)

I just turned 19 due march 25. Its terriffying! I couldn't imagine being your age and pregnantbut have a lot of respect for any girl who is young and keeps their baby and wants to support it, it takes a lot of sacrifice and maturity. I'm 3 years older than you and I'm still pretty scared so you go! Don't listen to ant negativity you made the right decision

I've never been in your situation but keep your head up. Age doesn't define your parenting ability. I'm sure you will be a great momma.

I was 16 when I got pregnant with my son and had him 1.5 months after my 17 bday and I kept him even though I was raped, my mom and brother supported me but my great aunt and uncle told me to give him up and I never did:) because I knew it was not his fault and he did not ask to be born. I think its awesome you want to keep your baby! Congrats hun!!
