[YummyMummy]

people are always like this..friends tell me i wont be able 2 come out drinking no more but they way i see it is i would rather play wit my son then poision my body, get drunk be sick and forget what happened the next morning...everyone keeps saying to my mum how does she feel being a granma b4 40...they think shes upset but she says the way she see's it is she is still young enough 2 run around wit my son n play with him..she happy im happy and she tells me everyday being a mother is not abt age its abt love...cause u can be 40 and not hav a clue or 15 and not have a clue it matters on u not on ur age..so i say 'GO TEEN MUMS' WOOOW xx

Id like to say to you mBLACK that you are really mature and i think your son is very special to have a mum like you! I think you have a good head on your shoulders and i think you know what you want out of life, so ignore the people who want to put a down side on things.
I am a young mum and people still say things to me, and i look at my kids and i know that they are both happy and well cared for...thats all i need to reasure me that i made the right decisions for ME!

I hope one day they will stop thinking that their opinion is so important!! I know that you will prove them all wrong - you havent ruined your life at all!!

You will be a fab mum and that is all that matters. Your lil boy will be so loved and happy.
Hate it when ppl stick their big noses in and try to tell you how to run your life, what do they know.....? Especially ppl who dont even know u, its just plain rude! Keep smiling though hun x x

I've read alot about young mums and older mums (being older myself) and it's all in your favour! Younger mums have more energy, can adapt more and will grow and change with your babys. Older mums are more selfish, a bit more stuck in our ways and can't adapt as easily! (Hope I don't offend any 'older' mums here!)

I've done it all the other way round and did ALOTof living before finally settling down and starting a family now. But I would never consider myself to be a 'better' mum cos I'm older. I worry that my child will look at me in years to come and think "what's she know anyway, she's way too old".

Keep your head high. You'll be a wonderful mum and love your child like no-one else can

OMG yea i totally get all this does my head in, grrrr... i have to say MOST of the people are great to me, though nobody can tell im pregnant so nobody i dont want to know about it knows. But yea im fed up of all the talk on how our lives have ended and we wont be able to do anything anymore grrr.... why would i prefer to go out partying and drinking (which i never really did anyhow) instead of looking after my beautiful baby.

Hunni I would try not to let it get to you I have people say it to me too. I'm 22 and married. Just remember that the people saying it to your are people who either don't have children or regret having children no matter what age. Your gonna be a great mum because you will never regret having your little boy

Sounds like what my parents have been saying. They are worried that I wont finish college, or have enough money. Well I went to college for a semester and a half before coming home to take care of my pregnant self, and I really didn't like it at all. I'm perfectly happy taking a few years off to figure out what I really want education wise. Also I know I'm young and that money will be a struggle for us, but at least I'm happy. I've never been happier in my life, and can't think of anything else that would be better then having this baby with my OH. Knowing that makes it easier to hear, I know my parents are just concerned

Some people can be just ignorant, and you know you will be the best parent to your little miricle and thats all that matters you will love him and do everything and "older" mom would do right? and yeah your right u didnt ruin your life u just skipped a chapter because you will be able to do all u wanted to accomplish it will just take longer well Good luck...

Aww hun, please don't let them grind you down, when i first started posting on here i thought you were much older, and you certainly sound it. You sound very mature and remember people will always pick holes, no matter who you are or how old you are.
I got married on my 22nd birthday, so many people told me i was too young, and i firmly believe my love for my man will not change regardless of the fact i married at 22 or if i'd have waited for a few years! Same with having a baby, we now get asked if we're ready. at 22 & 28, its pathetic and winds me up so much when people say wait a few years!!!!
We're both aware of what we are doing and that it will mean changes to our lives, but thats why were doing it.
Ignore them as best you can and remember people will pick holes regardless of age....my FIL calls it jealousy!
If you we're doing drugs and getting drunk all the time and wasting your time "being a teenager" as they say, that wouldn't be right either! big hugs babe xx

also for what its worth, i didn't do my alevels or uni or anything like that, i did 2 years day release college in my chosen profession.
I also left school early and only gained 5 gcse's compared to the average 10/11 i think it is, but i have a good job and am well paid.
At the time i was criticised for this, but i was doing it for me, no one else, i wasn't pregnant nor did i have a child, so it goes to show people will skip/put off further education without being pregnant!
It is just that some people have nothing better to do or say!!!

gees i know how you feel half my family and friends tried to make me put my daughter up for adoption and all sorts. they then tried to completely take over when that didnt work grrrr
its soooo annoying when other people think they know you better than you do
take it from me being a teenage mums HARD probably my greatest acheivment though. i just stuck to my guns and keeping her and bringing her up MY way. i was very young at 14 but i still did it and that was 12 years ago now
plus i really dont give a shit what other people think and never have lol

so good luck and enjoy you will be great ALL YOU TEENAGE MUMS if i can do it anyone can xxxx

Mummy2be, elli, and everybody else - I would like to give you all big to show my appreciation for your kind words! Aww got me all teary eyed now - hormones, hormones, hormones!
It's true though, you always have to remember to hold your head high - they'll kill to see you fall.
