I’m 19 (turn 20 in May) and an esthetician, my fiancé is 24 and a nurse. We have a monthly income of $5,000 and live in a rental house. Our rental house isn’t really nice, but it’s a roof over our heads and we are thankful. It’s not that we can’t afford a better house; our mentality is that we will live luxuriously one day, but the only way that’ll happen is if we hustle now.

I don’t talk to my family for personal reasons, and his family is distant but we still see them pretty often. I’m not close to his family... they’re just kind of distant people in general and towards everyone. It’s nothing that affects me in any way, it’s just a fact I’m stating.

We’ve talked about TCC and we both agree that whatever happens, happens. It’s not like I’m going out of my way to conceive, but today i explained that I’m kind of cramping because I’m ovulating and next thing you know we’re catching our breath after a nice...um workout. 😜We’re supposed to get married in April 2020- but we haven’t locked in a date or really started planning just because we are having to deal with some things are kind of taking priority over a wedding. We both aren’t really looking forward to the stresses of planning a wedding (family issues and all) and it’s kind of a situation where “when the right time comes, the right time comes”. We aren’t in a rush.

If you haven’t gotten the message yet, we’re go with the flow kind of people, haha!

I guess I’m asking for reassurance that we’re okay if we get pregnant. I’d also like advice from the younger mommas out there for dealing with whatever repercussions come from getting pregnant at a “young” age.
