I was with my sons dad for 2 years then got pregnant and delived him right after I turned 20. Did I think I was ready? YES. I would never give him back but I WASNT READY. I hadnt even figured out how to live on my own let alone be financially responsible for a baby. Sure I knew how to care for him but It was hard.
I went back to work when he was 2 weeks old because his dad is the laziest man on the face of this earth. I left him when my son was 9 months.

I got married and had my second son at 23. i was way more ready for him.
my oldest is now almost 7 and youngest is 4.

Kids are a lot of work and make sure you are done with all your YOU time because you lose that completely for the first 4 years at least. No pooping alone, no showers alone.
No sleep. Never ending diapers.

but on the other hand you get the first smile, first word, first steps, you get to see your OWN MIRACLE develop.
