Honestly, I was 16 and pregnant, found out at 17 lol (a week after my birthday). All I could think of was how would we live if i have to do this alone. I didn't know what to do so i just stayed in school, so now i can make money.😂

I hope so 🫶🏻

Don’t worry I found out at 18 too…didn’t know wth I was doing. I’m 19 now. Currently about to have my bby And my main piece of advice to you is keep your mind on your baby (as a motivation) cuz it gets better. I’m here if u want to talk.

Just wanted to drop a message of support and encouragement had my daughter at 19 just like you'll be and here we are 13 years later and we both survived lol she's amazing and taught me so much over the years, I'm now expecting my 5th baby. Just enjoy your baby and remember they don't stay young forever I know it's cliché but its very true there constantly changing you will grow with your daughter ❤️ I wish you all the best

I can’t talk for everyone but I don’t think anyone knows what they are doing🫠😂 I’m 25 and due in a few weeks, completely bricking it but we’re made for this ladies! You’ll smash it💖

Got pregnant at 19 had my baby at 20 and I can say I don't think any of us actually know what we are doing ,most of us are winging it ♥️and we do a bloody good job of it 🥰

Avatar

No one ever does, I’m sure you’re doing great☺️💕

Avatar

ohh I see. Did it cost anything?

Avatar

yeah I think the actual scan was like £45 and there was loads of extras you could get I think in total I paid £80 x

Young mum

Hi guys,

I’m just wondering if there’s any other young parents that are getting further into their pregnancy and like, genuinely just clocking that I’m gonna be responsible for a baby and I don’t know everything their is to know about baby’s I feel like I’m gonna be so useless and accidently be the worst mum in the world 🫣

Does anyone else feel like this? Or felt like this? I’m 19 and genuinely have so much anxiety about this now I’m 20 weeks lol

So annoyed, dog jumped on me :( now I’m anxious

I have a big dog and she NEVER jumps.. today I came home and my mum was with me visiting and my dog must have just got over whelmed and she jumped and ended up scratching my lower back,

with that I’ve bent backwards almost and stretched my lower belly and it didn’t hurt as such just felt like tha shock ligament pain but ofc I haven’t actually bent that far since being pregnant and now I just feel anxious really and just need some reassurance. It only happened about 15 mins ago and I have felt baby a little since

But why is there always something to worry about!😭
