Answer

Being a teen mom is extremely hard. My son is only 2 weeks old and it's been the hardest time of my life. I worked until 32 weeks when my doctor took me out of work due to complications. I'm still deciding if I want to go back to work or not when my maternity leave is over. My boyfriend is in the picture and he's  an amazing father, he works full time but he's also 24 and I'm 18.

Answer

I’m 18 and currently 36 weeks pregnant and I have a 10 month old. I was on the mini pill after I gave birth also breastfeeding and had sex before 6 weeks PP (when your “all” healed and allowed to have sex again) and ended up pregnant again. 
It’s hard especially since my first doesn’t fully sleep through the night still and he’s teething also going through a clingy phase. I’m a whale and can barely walk so it’s hard to do what I need to for my son, I can barely pick him up or hold him for very long and he gets mad
My parents were mad and told me to abort with my first child since I was in high school, but I kept him and ended up graduating on time and I worked half of my pregnancy before quitting 
I’m still with the babies father and he works full time while I stay at home with my son, we live with his parents but applied for an apartment of our own even though we meet the bare minimum requirements. 
Breastfeeding is time consuming and was difficult for me so I went to formula for my son but it’s ridiculously expensive I wish I would have stayed breastfed but I’m going to try again with my daughter
My family is supportive of me now and are actually excited for the second baby, they spoil my son and are already spoiling my daughter even though she’s not born yet

Answer

Extremely hard. My boyfriend is still around and he works, due to complications in the beginning of my pregnancy he didn’t want me to work so i don’t. We afford everything with our savings and tax returns
