00:00 I feel like being a mum made me grow up really fast and everyone used to always tell me that
00:07 I was really mature so I think having a baby at 16 was what done that to me. Being a mum
00:17 of 5 now and my second child coming to me and telling me that she was pregnant was a
00:23 huge shock because she's only 14 and I'm just worried about her finishing off the rest of
00:30 her school years and her GCSEs. After getting over the shock we are supporting her and we
00:37 just want to make sure that she doesn't feel like she's alone in this and making sure that
00:43 she's just always got someone to rely on. I feel like I'm in quite a good position to
00:48 help her because I've been in the same position as her before so I can go from my own experiences
00:55 of what's best for her maybe and I just want to let her be the baby's mum but also know
01:02 that I'm there to support her and come to me if she needs me.
01:16 Being pregnant and my mum having children at a young age has really helped because she
01:21 knows how to be supportive and help me because she didn't have all the support that I have
01:26 now that she can give and when he's here she'll be able to help as well with having children
01:31 of her own as well. And I think what is important also is that
01:37 you and Max also have time together because that's something that we haven't really had
01:43 so I want to make sure that you guys can still be yourselves and not just parents.
01:50 So far the pregnancy has been really good. I haven't had much sickness or anything so
01:56 at the start it was really easy, it's just now that he moves loads that sleeping and
02:01 doing things is really difficult sometimes.
02:04 I'm really happy that I've been able to help him. I'm really happy that he's been able to help me.
