What are the pros and cons being a teen mom?

Question

Is 16 a good age to become a mother?

Answer

Don’t get pregnant at 16 please.

Answer

I'm 17 with a 7 week old, dont do it, I love her so much and I wouldn't change anything but don't do it

Answer

i wouldn’t say that intentionally getting pregnant at 16 is a good idea at all. 
i’m 19 and due in 2 weeks and not only has the process of pregnancy been really horrible for me, but babies are expensive and time consuming. most of the baby stuff we have was bought for us at our baby shower, which i’m so grateful for because it’s so damn expensive. i say wait it out

Answer

im 19 and my son is 9 weeks old today . in my opinion its not hard , i dont have help from family either . its just me and my husband ; despite the fact that im up every 4 or 5 hours .... things are great . if YOU wanna get pregnant at that age then YOU do that . make sure your parents are loving and supportive about it and i promise you that'll make this whole process a breeze .

Answer

in my opinion that’s not a good age to try and have a baby but it’s your choice in the end. i’m 16 with an almost 3 year old and it’s difficult and has been since the start. if you’re financially stable and have a good, loving relationship then we can’t stop you from trying but love, you have plenty of time to get pregnant later on in life...

Answer

If that’s what you (and your partner) want to do, than that’s your decision. I had my first at 14, and last at 24. I’m so happy with all my kids. Yes it’s hard, but anything that’s worth it is hard. Your life changes when you have a baby, but it doesn’t end. You can go to school and college, there’s tons of programs that help young mothers. Your youth isn’t the only time you get to “have fun”. I’m very happy I had mine at when I did, but that’s not for everyone. I wasn’t really a party person, more of an introvert. But again, your decision and your partners because it’s much easier to have and raise children with the father involved.

Answer

i had my oldest at 17 & would have definitely waited. enjoy being young while you can. my now husband and i worked 24/7 and had our own house and cars but i missed out on being a teen/young adult. with that being said i love my kids more than anything.

Answer

I became a momma at 16. As much as I love my boy, and wouldn’t trade him for the world, I’m now 20 and pregnant with baby #2 and let me tell you, waiting to have a baby is going to be so worth it. We live on our own, financially stable and not relying off family to support us and our child. It’s so much better to just wait until you’re stable enough to support yourself, a child, and housing. Please wait.

Answer

I’m 18 and have a 17month old and am already expecting my second .. I wouldn’t change them for the world and I don’t regret having them I’ve never known love so pure but it’s safe to save I definitely get jealous of all the other people my age going out having fun / goof to festivals whenever the feel like it because they don’t have to look after a child 24/7 and can buy them self nice things ... I never leave my house to do anything and I’ve lost pretty much all of my friends because I can’t just go out whenever
