    I also became a mom at 21, 30 years ago. Very consciously!!! It was quite early for that time too, but people didn’t look at it as strangely as they do now, I think.
    And now I’m becoming a super young, fit grandma at 51. How cool is that :-)

    hahaha super fun, is that true! my mom didn't want to be a grandma at all, she said I had to wait a bit longer, she had just gotten out of diapers herself, she said. my little brother was 9 when my oldest was born, now she thinks it's fantastic. my boys can't get enough of her, they are crazy about their grandma. so it's totally awesome that we now live in a co-living community. cozy to form a community with three families and take care of each other. everyone puts in their own talents. grandma takes care of the little ones

    I got tired of it, and still do. I was 16 when I had my first.
    To this day, people still ask if she was planned or an "accident." Well, you can always see people doing the math when you mention their ages.
    I'm 28 now!

    I mean, no, she wasn't planned, obviously not! But do you really need to ask? What does it matter? They were born, we love them, that's enough.

    My mom became a grandma at 39, and she's super proud.

    I'm 21 too and a mom of a beautiful daughter. My boyfriend is 27 and we just felt it was time.
    I was still studying when I got pregnant because we never expected it to happen so quickly (it was a hit within two weeks). As long as you can provide your child with all the basic things they need and your relationship is really solid, I don't see any reason not to do it.
    Let them talk all they want!

    I was 20 when I got pregnant! And 21 when I gave birth

    Now I have a beautiful little boy who's just 4 months old!

    And I'm a super proud mom (single)

    Haha, great way to put that, I totally agree with you, girl.
    I'm 21 too, I still have to take a test, but I'd jump for joy if I were pregnant!

    I'm 21 and pregnant with our first baby. We both have jobs and are renting a family home together. We have enough money for raising the child, and we've been together since I was 16. Still, some people think it's weird that we want a baby and that I'm pregnant now. But we're really happy about it, and that's what matters.

    I was 17 when I was pregnant with twins, but unfortunately had a miscarriage. At 20, I got pregnant again. Now 26 weeks and 21 days to go until birth.
