I got preg when I was 15, had my daughter when I was 16. I married her father and am very much happy. I'm almost 20 now 6 weeks preg with #2. Being a teen mom is very hard. I still struggle with it. You loose your child hood, you don't get to do whatever you want anymore. It's all about baby now. You have to somehow find a balance between being the best mom you can be, and yourself. If you ever find that..let me know. I've seemed to have lost who I am along the way. Good luck, you're going to need it hun. Best wishes!!

hya i had my little boy at 16 and then another at 17 my lg at 21 and now at 25 im married and were having are 1st baby together, im 32wks pregnant, i did it all alone i had no help off my mum and there dad was a waste of space teen mums get a lot of bad publicity but every1s different am proud to say i brought up 2 baby's in my teens im more nervous with his 1 as i lost a little boy last may hope everything goes well for you and good look xx

Ha ; I'm As Well A Teen Mom . I'm 17 &' Pregnant &' My Due Date Is Feb. 28th 2013 (:

It isn't impossible to be a good Mom at 15 but it won't be easy for you but you sound like you have your head screwed on right. Watch shows like Teen Mom and 16 and pregnant.... then do the exact opposite of what they do and you'l be just fine!

Congratulations! It's so normal to feel all of those things but I know that it can be pretty overwhelming sometimes. I got pregnant with my first at 16 so I do know how it feels too. It's not easy doing it all so young but always remember that having a wonderful life and being a young mom is completely possible! In fact, you have to work extra hard and achieve your goals now for baby instead of you, and that makes it so much more important ;) And please, you don't have to stop "labeling" yourself as a teen mother because other people won't stop. Better to own up to the label and beat the stereotypes into the ground I say.
I hope that everything goes wonderfully for you with this baby and I honestly hope that you keep your head held high and stay strong in making a good life for you and your child. I went back to my Senior year when my daughter was 5 days old and kept going until I graduated on time and hopped straight into college and work- it's not easy, but definitely rewarding. There are SO many opportunities out there to advance your life so please never feel like there isn't an option to do it! I have one year left for my RN but I put school on hold when my husband joined the Army and then we PCS'd to Texas this January. I'm 34 weeks along with our 2nd now (we're 22). Going back to school after being out is hard so I suggest diving into it head on with as little a break as possible. Separate yourself from negative influences and don't be too sad when you can't relate as well to all the friends you had before. You're growing up and headed in a different direction but, there is tons of support out there for young moms so take advantage. Hopefully you find some great people to connect with here! I'm no teen mom anymore but I would be glad to talk to you or lend support anytime Momma. Best of luck to you and your little one!

Congrats you can do it! I had my son at 15yrs old, worked and graduated highschool at 17yrs old. Not the easiest but I don't regret my son at all. Love him way to much ... your not alone babe and when thst little baby comes into this world you might still be a little scared but everything will fall into place. Good luck mammas

If you are going to be rude, don't comment on this at all. And stop telling me to stop labeling myself as a teen mom. You're not me, so quit worrying about what I call myself. Do you think I'm proud of myself for being 15 a pregnant? Well, I'm not. Im proud at the fact that I grew up enough to take on the responsibility of having a baby. Now, if you are not a young mother, or a past one, like I asked for then don't comment. I posted this to find girls who got pregnant at a young age to ask for advice and meet them, not to get negative comments.

Wow, simmer down.
We tell you that because no one's going to respect you if you label yourself like that. If you call yourself a teen mom, you'll be treated like a teenager. You're a mom, and I'm sure in that aspect you'd like to be treated like an adult, yes?
Then don't label yourself. Why is it such a big deal to just call yourself a mom? Why do you want to throw teen in front of it?

I honestly don't think their is anything wrong with calling yourself a teen mom. I still think of myself that way. I don't get the big deal about it all, your a teen, your a mom, hence teen mom. There is nothing wrong with that. Just beat the stereotype and be a GOOD teen mom.

EXACTLY I was a teen mom even though I was 19 when my daughter was born. What separates you from the "bad" stigma of teen moms is if you get things done like any other mom to the best of your ability.
