Hi! I am also a teen mom. I was 17 when I had my daughter. She is now almost 10 months and I'm 18. I'm not single or breast feeding. But I have a lot of respect for single moms, especially single teen moms!! I would like to have teen moms as friends here on facebook, because it would be great to have someone to talk to who understands!!

I breast fed my daughter for 2 months and then I went back to school. It was hard breastfeeding her but now I wish I wld have kept with it. She is 9 months now. I got pregnant 2 months before my 16th birthday and I am now 17, and single. Being a mom is amazing and I love waking up to her with a big smile on her face. Babies are a joy. I plan to have more when I am settled in my own home and in a commited relationship.

Hi im a teen mum too i had my son, Alex, at 18, 6 days before my birthday. I am also pregnant with my second one due in January, I'm 20 in October. I breastfed Alex until he was 4 months old but then he started to nip at me. I am happy to hear that there are other teen mums that have fed their children, I must now point out that I obviously have no problem with bottle fed children as Alex was, as I know so many girls who I went to school with who haven't breast fed their children. So good on you!! x

Hey i was a teenage mum i fell pregnant at 17 and had my wee girl just after my 18th birthday i hate the way people look down there noses at us but i think we could do a much better job than some adults can. I hate when you see some children at 2 years old that still have a bottle! I never breastfed as i was too weak after giving birth but i hope do it with my next child x

I was 17 when I had my son and was still in High school but graduated and am now 23 and about the get my bachelors degree from Ohio State University. I also have 9 month old twins. It is awesome that you are breastfeeding. When I was a teenager I was too self conscious to breastfeed and then it just didnt work out with the twins. I am sorry you are single, I was for a long time too until I met my husband a little over a year and a half ago and life is a million times better now. I wish you all the luck in the world! try to enjoy every moment! My son is going into 1st grade this year and I miss his baby.toddler days sooo much!
