You seem to be one of a kind for teenage pregnancy. I have a niece who got herself oregnant at age 16 because she couldn’t think of anything else to do. She lives completely on Govt money, in Govt subsidised accommodation, Govt subsidised utilities with her unemployed partner. So sad for bub

wonderful

great story to read

Age is not a sign of maturity or ability to cope with life. You and your partner obviously have dealt well with what life has thrown at you, and you are planning for the future, rather than drifting along. Good on you for being so focused at such a young age, because there’s a lot of people who are double your age, who still just wander through life, with no purpose.

Congratulations, that is wonderful news

Congratulations.
I fell pregnant with my first child at 17 (was 1995) so wasn’t very accepted back then but like you i loved being a young mum I know have 4 children been married for 10 years and own a 5 bedroom house so to all the people that say you ruin your life having a child young up your bum lol

Congratulations!.
I had my first at 19 aswell and Im 22 in August and I have an 8 week old now as well we also just moved into our forever home xx how exciting for you! Hows your oldest feel about the new baby on its way?

You should be proud of yourselves you’ve done good

You have your priorities right & you sound determined to achieve regardless of your age.

I am jealous! I started trying at 19, and finally succeeded at 34. I would have loved to have been a lot younger, but still glad I have her!

i was 16 when i had my first and raised all on my own than 4 years later met my partner and had 3 more kids so good on you

I am nineteen and expecting my first child in August, a beautiful baby girl. You should be proud of yourself. Well done x

Great news all the best to you and your family, 19 is not young

I agree – it is not age but determination and attitude which make the difference

I was 17 when I had my first child and married and had a second child at 19 and My oldest will be 30 this year ,and it was back it it was looked down upon.
We built and own our own home and own it as well as all our furniture and 3 cars.
Which are all the things people said we would never have would never happen.
Just as was said about my first born Daughter she would be a school drop out and pregnant before she was 16, well she finished year 12 with honors and got married at 22 and not pregnant and does not drink or smoke and has a few diplomas behind her. So you can always show people you can do a lot and your age has nothing to do with it as it is the type of person you are that makes it all come together

congrats to you on getting the house, and being such a great woman, you sound like a strong and confident girl beautiful to see
