teen moms excited .

I am 17 and I am 10 weeks and 3 days pregnant. I could never feel so blessed and scared at the time. Everything is falling into place seeing as my boyfriend just got his job I'm currently looking for a job but I know granted I am a teen mom I will be able to give this baby a life like no other. It just really bugs me how all the other mothers on here that aren't teen moms say its so bad . I know my Baby was not an accident seeing as we never used protection. I just don't get why people judge age doesn't say how mature you are. I have taken care of my younger siblings since I was four giving them baths changing diaper putting clothes on making there bottles. I pretty much have it covered granted its going to be a lot different because the baby will be my own and I won't be able to hand the baby over to mommy since I will be mommy . But I could never be so happy about our miracle.

    Youre very right, age doesnt define maturity. You and your boyfriend come across as more mature than most expecting parents your age would be though! I've known plenty a boy to run for the hills, and plenty a girl to flatout refuse to work. It's all about the mindset in the end, and I'm positive you'll make good parents if you're willing to put in the work, same with all of us :)
    Im sure you can understand how some moms that had a really hard time because they waited must feel though. Place yourself into their shoes, imagine you had waited because you wanted to be sure your child had everything it could ever wish for and more, only to find out its now incredibly hard to conceive. If both parties kind of learn to look from eachothers point of view, I'm sure everyone could see where the other persons feelings are coming from!

    As long as baby is loved, I see no real issue either way, but I do feel either party kind of glaring at the other is just natural, because there's two incredibly different ways of life that meet. Personally, I fall kind of in the middle. Im 23, am married and we're financially stable, and our baby was planned. We conceived really quickly and feel absolutely blessed!

    I had my first son at 18. I have raised him as a single mother and he is my world. I am now 24 and in my second pregnancy. It was hard on my own at that age but i wouldn't have changed it for anything. Just stay focused and u will be fine :)

    You keep doing you and keep being excited to raise that baby. Don't let someone else's unhappiness bring your happiness down!

    Thank you melmel92 I have just been very frustruated with some of the things I have read and you helped reassure me to not get so mad and look at it in the other moms perspective . We have been living together already for about a year and have been together for 2 we honestly have been talking about having a baby for some time now .
