hey nik, you can send me a questionnaire if you like. i know a couple of others who could fill it out for you too.

I don't know what you'd classify as a teenage mum - are you looking for young teenagers??? I was 19 when I had my dd - does that count. If it helps then I'll fill one out too - just CAT me.
