Planned Teen Pregnancy anyone? (at 18+)

eager.4.U · Mar 28th, 2012, 13:48 PM

Hey

Im Lianne, I introduced myself and my story in the introducing section, if any of you would like to check it out and read...

I'm 19 and WTT with my fiance that is turning 20 in a few weeks. Has anyone else my age, or a bit younger planned their pregnancy or are actually TTC? Either 18, 19 or around 20. (read teen pregnancy rules)

And for those who have planned it, how did you tell your parents and family that it wasnt an accident and that you actually were trying to have a child?

What is the greatest reward at the end of each day? And what makes being a young mom better in your opinion?

Kateycakes -

Omg how did you avoid the topic so well lol I thought of probably doing the exact same thing, but I know my mom will just see it in my face that it didn't happen by accident lol She just knows me too well!

I have a feeling though, if she does ask me if I tried to consieve, and when I admit it, she'll probably just tell me its out little secret.

How is it being a 'teen mom' at 20? Did you get to finish college, or are you still trying to finish? Im just so curious of how this has worked out for some women my age, as me and my man are so very excited and comfortable with the idea of raising a child!

Thank you for replying

Hi! I'm brittney and 18, and 19 weeks pregnant with my little girl! Me and my OH are both 18, and kinda planned our LO. we both wanted a baby but for a while when we were trying I couldn't get pregnant. Then as soon as we stopped trying and just "let it happen" we got pregnant

congrats on your pregnancy!

I was a teen mummy at 19 and now being 20. Being a mummy is totally different in real life than in your head. It's so much more worrying, stressful, totally exhausting yet amazing and the most rewarding thing in the same sentence!!
No matter how much I thought I was prepared..I wasn't lol.

Plus babies are very expensive! She eats more food than I do ha ha!

Babybumpleb - Hey! Wow that is pretty funny, thats always the way it works isn't it haha Well congradulations to you and ur man!

Im not pregnant yet tho

KateyCakes - I dont think anyone is really 'prepared' haha, you can say im comfortable and excited to raise a child though

What do you enjoy the most about being a young mom? What feels really rewarding at the end of the day, that just makes the exhaustion, the worry and the stress worth it?

Hi! I'm Francesca, 19 and 21 weeks with my little boy.

We were actively TTC for 3 months when I got pregnant. I was 19 and my OH was 25. We've been together for over 2 years and living together in our own place for a year and a half so we are prepared and stable. No one has asked me if it was planned, most people assume it wasn't. I wouldn't deny it if they did ask, I'm not ashamed of being a young mum!

Good luck with everything and hope you are able to conceive when you want. X
