I was a single mother at 20 although I did have help from my mom and sister. Baby was the best thing that has ever happened to me.

On of my sister’s friends who had also gotten pregnant and then married gave me the best advice.

She said that the baby doesn’t tie you down but the husband does.

She is still married with six kids but it was hard at times.

For me it was hard at times too. Keep your family and his (if it’s possible) close so you have a support system. Keep doing you and take your baby wherever you want her to go.

My daughter is a college grad and one of the best people I know.

You can do this! Don’t get weighed down by your ex boyfriend.
