    KAILEY and Nathan had known each other for a few years but when they found out she was pregnant at just 16, they’d only been dating a short time. Kailey took a test as a joke with a friend; she was on birth control and had zero symptoms so when the result came back positive Kailey took another two because she couldn’t believe it. For Kailey, who at that point was living in Alabama, abortion wasn’t an option. It was over a week after finding out before Kailey had the courage to tell Nathan but he was excited and simply said ‘ok well let’s do this’. They only told one other friend at school, keeping it secret until Kailey left school at six months pregnant to continue with online school. Living in a small town where teen moms tended to just go into hiding once their pregnancies were public knowledge, Kailey and Nathan were determined to change the narrative. Avery was born in March 2020, just as the world was going into lockdown. That meant that not only did Kailey and Nathan have to deal with being parents at a very young age but they also didn’t get the usual support groups or family visits that would have happened outside of lockdown. It was 3-4 months before Kailey’s dad got to meet his grandchild. This challenging start has prepared the young couple well, who are entirely self-sufficient. They got engaged when Kailey was just 17, Nathan, 19 with Nathan proposing on the beach. They are now married and live in Omaha, Nebraska for Nathan’s job, while Kailey continues her studies and looks after Avery. Kailey started her TH-cam channel and Instagram to be a safe space for other teen moms. She says: “I wanted to not condone it, not encourage teen pregnancy but show the real side.”

    A doctor telling a 15 or 16 year old that they are infertile is extremely irresponsible. A teenager will take that as 100% fact and think that there is no possible way that they can get pregnant.

      It's actually not as tough as in your 30s or 40s. The older you get, the more nerves you lose, patience is out of the window and stress from work also is sky high. When you're teen, you have support, patience and strength to carry that on and education. If someone tells me it's too much, just remember how many all-nighters you could pull off at 18.

    I had my babies at 16, 18, and 19 and married their dad at 17. Thank God too because at 20 I was diagnosed with cervical uterine and ovarian cancer. Started in one place and spread and can't have kids anymore. I've been with my husband for 20 year married and 23 years altogether. We are very happy in a healthy loving relationship. We finished school and college. Went on to have 1 masters and 2 bachelor's between us. Our kids now adults, except 1. Are in college and not parents themselves. People look down on teen parents all the time and I understand. Most of the time it is messy for awhile but sometimes it's not.

      @@Wakeupgrandowl Honestly, I think the whole 'energy' thing is overrated. There are so many factors that are much more important that most people just don't have when they are in their early 20s and have been with the same partner for all their dating life. When I was a child I wanted to have had my first baby by 21. Now I'm 25, childless and having the absolute time of my life and I'm still doing the whole 'finding myself thing'. I couldn't imagine doing that with a child to care for. If I have kids I want to have them in my mid-30s. Sure I may have less energy, especially with the career I'm going down, but I feel like I'll be a much more well rounded person and emotionally be more available for my children. Right now I'm too emotionally volatile to care for another human being and 99% of my friends of a similar age are too.

    I became a momma 11 days after I turned 20. I adopted my sister's son whom she abandoned at the hospital at birth. Wouldn't change it for a thing. Some people are up for it, but most aren't. You just have to take it for what it is and make the most of it. I wouldn't suggest being a young mom but it's totally doable to be a great mother at a young age. There are many challenges though, especially if for instance your child has special needs like mine does.

      It's not. They themselves said they didn't want to get married so soon. You do so much growing and maturing at that age. With a child you need to put the child first in a time of life where putting yourself first will help you grow as a person. Also, doing that while married so young works for some people, but it's usually a disaster in the end for most others.

    I am happy for you guy's. Have kids early and get it over with. The fact you guys got marry is showing you guy's are responsible. When you get 40 something you still be young living your best life. Partying and clubbing is so overrated.

      Only time will tell if they will last. Partying and clubbing is not overrated, it’s what young people should do !

      What awful advice. Also, being young isn't just 'partying and clubbing'. It's about finding yourself and that is made a hell of a lot harder when you have a child to put first and are married.
