I'm told by "others" that I'm "so young" ,to have three kids.?
I was officially a Momma of three just two days shy of my 23rd birthday.
I can think of more than a dozen women I know who had 3 and 4 kids YOUNGER than I was. So if you don't mind? Just how old were you with your third?just curious....

I had my first at 18, my second at 19, my third at 21 and my fourth at 23. You just need to ignore those people. It's your life and as long as you are happy, your children are happy and you are being the best mother you can then that's all you need to worry about. Just because other people wouldn't choose to have their children at that age doesn't mean it's wrong for those of us who do. I am 34 now and I am so happy that I had my children at a young age and close together. They are all very close and great friends and they all love the fact that I am a young mom. Remember, it's your life and your decision and they are just rude nosy people who have nothing better to do then give other people a hard time. Good luck!!!!

I was almost 20 when i had my first, just turned 22 when i had my second and i will still by 22 when my third is born. So i guess i would be a young mother too, and i dont care what anyone else says, because i have the income and the love and the ability to take care of and to raise my kids the right way.

I had my 3rd child when I was 23 y/o. Don't let what others say, about you being so young to be a mother of three. Everytime someone says that I had my kids too young. I just tell them that I wanted to retire early and be able to do things at a young age...especially once my kids have left the home, to start their own lives. That's when they say, good point.

I personally have no children, but I know a women who had 5 kids at the age of 23. You're doing fine! Don't let ANYONE tell you where you should be at in your life; only you know that! Congratulations on your children!

That is very young to have 3 children. I was not even married at 23. I had my 1st at 27 and my 2nd at 33.

I have 5 children. And I was on my third by 23 also. That's what me and my husband decided on and no one knows what's best for you. And if it works for you then don't worry about what people might think about it.

I'm 34 and I have only 2 kids...having 3 kids by the time you're 23 is so hard on anyone. You haven't lived life. I had my first baby at 19 and it was very hard...my neice is 20 and pregnant with her 4th, she's having a very rough time. When do you have time for you? When do you get to go out by yourself? I believe a woman needs to go out and experience life herself before she can teach another person about life.

You're not young, it's your life and as long as your happy and comfortable everyone else has no room for input!
