Young parents?

[KatherineJoness]

I was a "young" parent. I had a child at age 22 yrs. It was a struggle financially, but in the end I made it work. I have 5 year old now. He is my wonderful baby boy!!
So any other young parents?? I know there are probably quite a few but I just have rarely met any and it was hard to talk to my friends about it as none of them are young parents.

And I would also love to meet and make some friends!!

I’m 21 and currently 22wks +3 days pregnant with my first! I’ll be 22 when he’s born. I feel like all of my friends are still super young & not interested in my pregnancy as I’ve “grown up” and they don’t really understand it. That’s why I’ve joined this forum for advice and to make friends

I was 20! You find friends come and go. Lots don’t understand what your going though and you mature faster than the rest. Your making decisions now based on the little person next to you.
What I will say is he was the best thing to happen to me. He is 8 now

Yeah. I always felt like my friends were there for me... but they didnt know what I was going through.

I was 22 and now 23 with the next on the way 😬😬 I have lost touch with so many people but it was by choice because they just reminded me of bad times, these babies have given me a new life 😍 hard to keep in touch with people when you can barely be bothered to feed yourself or get dressed 😂
