This is just a reminder of our policy that members must be 18 years or older. Pregnant teens are still growing themselves and have different health requirements than adult mothers. Young Moms must be sure to be in very close contact with her doctor and a trusted adult in her life (even more so than a typical pregnant adult).
BabyFit would like to be able to serve pregnant teens, as they need support and good information, as well. But at this time, we are not able to do so. This is a time when all Moms (especially young mothers) need as much friendship and support as possible. BabyFit enthusiastically encourages each teen mother to seek out resources in her community and school.
For teen Moms that may have still been able to register, we will not be able to continue your membership. Below are on-line resources that may be helpful and should be coupled with direct contact with your physician.

This is I can see an old message, but i felt the need to post anyways. I was only sixteen when i got pregnant with my now 2 and a half old daughter I was seventeen when I had her. I had it different from alot of people though I was a single mom, I had been with her father for five years and got pregnant with my daughter not even two weeks later he bailed and to this day I have never heard from him. I will tell you it is hard but woman have the strength and will power to over come things like that in our lives you have a child and everthing changes your whole out look on the world and being nervous is very commen. It all kinda falls into place one you have your baby though. And trust me things will get really tough but then there's those perfect breath taking moments that make up for the hard times.

Hi! I'm Amanda and I'm only 18 years old. I was wondering, how is an 18 year old more developed than a 17 year old? I had only been 18 for a few weeks when I conceived, I'm a little nervous.
