I became a mum at 18

As title says, became a mum at 18 AMA.

Was it through choice, and if not what was the hardest challenge you had?

How old are you now?

Was it through choice, and if not what was the hardest challenge you had?

Yes it was through choice. Both myself and my DP (child's father) chose to have a baby.

How old are you now?

20

Although I assume you wouldn't change your baby for the world (hopefully terrible 2s are not an issue for you) but do you ever wish you had maybe waited. Were had a baby whilst your friends are studying, travelling, drinking and generally care free.

I had my first at 21. I wasn't really young, but its considered quite young. I had a time all my friends were so busy being wild or exploring the world, I felt a little isolated.

At 18 I can imagine that would be even tougher for you?

Nope, never wish I had waited. I don't drink, so there is no issue with missing out on parties or nights out. I still have a social life. I haven't missed out on anything so there really isn't anything that I should have waited for.
