Pregnancy - Teens Support Group
This community is dedicated to the experience of being pregnant as a teenager. Pregnant teenagers face many of the same obstetrics issues as women in their 20s and 30s. However, there are additional medical concerns for younger mothers, particularly those under 15 and those living in developing countries.

My life has been hell lately. Tyler is now 15 months old and on some days I just want to end it. I am stressed to the max with being a full time college student and running around after a toddler. Today I found out that he doesn't even have health insurance anymore and that just threw me over the edge. I feel like a failure as a mother and I'm really stuck in life right now. I am about to quit school because I don't need that extra stress in my life right now. I am so depressed that I don't even want to wake up in the mornings and most of the time I can't get myself to be happy. Living with my parents isn't making things simpler either, but I know that if I were on my own, it would be much harder. I just get really mad when they try to tell me how to raise Tyler and what I should and shouldn't do with him. I'm just looking for something or someone to be there for me. I have 1 friend left in real life, but she has her other friends and a job, so we hardly see each other. I don't know how much more of this I can take before I break.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
