Question

Planned Teenage Pregnancy??


HI im 18/19 in march. Im currently trying to concieve with my partner who i have been with for nearly two years.

Has anyone one else on here planned for there baby? I have read a few articles on the net about planned teenage pregnacys.
My view is that i hate the way teenage pregnacys are still quite a taboo and i feel teenages should get more support in this area instead of being shunnned and made to feel bad! I heard on the news that the uk society is becoming an old society as more people are choosing to have babys and starting familys later in life and this may cause problems. But why do teenage mums have alot of bad press??


Any ways just thought i would say hi!

Because they focus on the majority not the minority and there are bad teenage mums. My friend was trying for a baby for a year, she's 19 now and 12 weeks pregnant. Good luck TTC

I think its because some teenagers become parents for the wrong reason. And in the end are too immature to be proper parents. But not everyone of course. Good Luck Ttc x
