Young Pregnancy

[4Nheaven1here]

I'm not judging nor am I trying to be rude but I have a question for all you young moms. Now I've already asked a few of you why so early and some responded that it was an accident. Understandable accidents happen and at least your being responsible and taking care of your self and baby, bravo to you ladies!  Im wondering about the others who are purposely getting pregnant at such young ages like 21 and under? Why so early ladies? What's the rush? Btw I'm currently writing a book about this. No names will be used only opinions. I've exhausted my own topic of " Being pregnant with Cancer". Thanx to all that do share .

Im 19 becoming pregnant at 18 was unplanned I will be 19 when she comes in just 8 weeks im sorry but age is just a number my boyfriend of 5 years is 21 I dont think that theres any problem with becoming pregnant 'early' as you say it. As long as your mature, and your earning money dont see whats the problem with becoming pregnant 'early' we live in our own house and pay our way by ourselves and will look after our baby the best to our ability. Im sorry but I hate it when people say young mum when im 19 does my head in. Young mum is lile 15, 16. If you and your partner are ready to have a child then whats the hold up. I have got all my qualifications I need and am hoping to go to uni in a few years just because Im having a baby does not mean I wont get what I want in life. She is the most precious gift in the world to me.

I work at quest diagnostics as an electronic data specialist and am currently in school to be a CPA. I live on my own and support myself. I love my baby and wouldn't have it any other way :-)currently 9 weeks 1 day with bby #1

Young pregnancy will always be a hot topic only because society doesn't want to understand that just because you are young doesn't mean that you are incapable of making your way through life and giving the best to your children. To my mother I was the mistake. She couldn't finish college because she had me. She always blamed all her short comings because of me. I was sad for the longest time seeing myself as " The Mistake". That's bad parenting to me. I've been a Dr for the last 3yrs and in the process of writing this book and of course she wants to take credit for all my  accomplishments. What a bunch of sh*t!

That was my point exactly. I'm tired of older people judging young women on pregnancy. They think because your young that you can't hold your own. Well I think it's bullsh*t. If anything so many of you women have had more life experience then some of the older people that I've spoken with. Not only are most of you very mature but socially responsible as well and quite respectable. I feel your voices and stories,  your opinions should be out there. That's why I'm here.
