Hey i'm Lucy. I got pregnant at 17 and had Harry at 18. He's now 8 months old and im 19! Makes it sound like i was pregnant for years!

I don't think i want to have a lot of kids though. Do you think you found it easier to have the three by 27 Cazmac? xxx

jo jo I have a similar story to yours. My name is also Joanne and I fell pregnant at 16 and had my daughter at 17. I was also at college up until it finished for the Summer, I finished in June and had Jamie in August. I did get funny looks but for a different reason, none of the boys in my class knew I was pregnant and just thought I got really fat. lol idiots! I'm going to start tcc next year and I will be 22. I don;t think it matters what age you are you will always have busybodies judging and giving their opinions even when its not wanted.

Hi all i was 19 carrying my eldest, 20 having him then had my youngest and last!!! 18 months later at 21. Ive never had any stick. My and oh (we have a 20 year age gap, hes 42) own our own home and cars and both have good jobs so we have been able to give our boys a good life, just as good if not better than mums in their 30's or 40's. People really shouldnt judge by age x

Hi,

I fell pregnant with my daughter at 14, she is now 9 and im just ttc baby number 2! Had a miscarriage recently so feel that im really lucky to have a beautiful little girl already.

I kept my pregnancy a secret and there was only me and my best friend that knew, she was 9Ib 8oz born, but no-one guessed! lol, think i played my last netball match a week before i had her!! Just goes to show doesnt it lol.

I hate the stigma that come with 'teenage mum' and people automatically just assume that your going to amount to nothing (not my opinion but others, not all) i just want to say that not everyone is the same, we can still go on to have good jobs. I left school with 11 GCSE's went onto college full time for nearly 3 years, done loads of other training and now work in a secondary school, and i love it, especially now that i can help other girls that are in the same situation.

I just want to wish you all the best in life and hope that you enjoy your baby xxx
