Since I first found out I was pregnant I've been having to face stereotypes and judgement from family, friends, and strangers. Being 16 and pregnant isn't easy but it certainly doesn't mean my "life's over" or that I'm "never going to amount to anything." As soon as I knew I was pregnant I got a job, started saving money and completed a fast track program to get my highschool diploma. Now I already have most of my basics done for my associate's degree. I'm proud with what I've accomplished and im not ashamed for being 16 and pregnant. 💕
