Video transcript

My life at the moment is being pregnant. I am 6 months and going through the ups and the downs that goes along with being pregnant .

When you're pregnant it comes with happy and difficult times, like feeling worried about everything. Wondering how you're going to cope, going through stressful times,  learning to ignore people's opinions, even losing friends. I am learning to grow up and getting used to the changes of my body.

It comes with good times too. Seeing my little bump grow and finding out what you are having. I found out that I am having a little girl. I saw her for the first time at my scan, it was amazing. I remember my little baby had the hick-ups and kept jumping .

After I knew my baby was going to be a girl I went shopping. Buying the tiny clothes made me so happy it filled me up with tears, but I think that might be the hormones. It's also fun picking out names, this is a big decision.

My advice for young women who are pregnant is don't be scared about what people think. Its not the end of your life, it's a new start.
