I think you are going to have your hands full! Lol. No but you should just tell your parents the same way you did the first time. Dont stress about it. It may be too early for another one, but maybe its better so they will grow up to be close, best friends as well as siblings. I wouldnt stress too much. My fiance wants 10 kids once we start! My limit is 4 though!Hahaha so just tough it out, tell your parents and make sure you have enough love for the both! Good luck, keep in touch!

If you think you're too young to be having another baby, our opinions shouldn't matter or even sway your thoughts. I'm 18 and I had my first child 6 months ago when I was still 17. I'm already ready to have another, I want them to be born too far apart, unlike me and my brother were(5 years and 10 months) and especially not like me and my sister(14 years). You're 20 years old, you're a grown woman, you shouldn't stress out about what your parents will think... It's your life. You'll get through it, don't worry.

What Do I Think
Well unfortunately this is your life, your problem. Everyone is in a different place in their life at that age. If I may apply my life to the situation, I am around the same age. I know that I would not want to have a child right now. I am too young in my opinion. Sure, I am old enough to get a full time job, get married, and I am mentally,emotionally, and physically mature enough to handle a baby. But you know what, I know that if I waited until I graduated college, I would get a better job, a better house, and better things for my baby. There is just too much of a difference between what I could provide now, and what I could provide later. You already have a child however, so I can't really compare. Don't worry about your parents. You need to live your own life, if they were understanding for the first one, they should be ok for the second. If you think you are too young, then seek other options, whatever feels right to you. Good luck- keep me posted.

Girl, I wouldnt stress it if I were u. Well what is done is done, there is no need to not want it to happen now, so just do what you think it's good for you, not what ur parents want.

Ur parents were (maybe) upset the first time, but now, u have been thru ur first child, there shouldnt be too much u have not seen or done, so just relax, enjoy ur second child, and dont stress over something that does not seem to be too important.
