I’d been pregnant 7 times by 19 – trolls say I’m a pathetic embarrassment, so many people suggested abortions
A WOMAN who had fallen pregnant seven times by the time she was 19 years old has opened up about the cruel trolling she fell victim to.
Angie – who at 21 is now a mum to three with baby number four on the way – first found out she was expecting with her now-husband Jordon when she was just 15.
Despite some people warning Angie that it wasn’t likely to end well, the pair went through with the pregnancy and welcomed their little girl Nevaeh, now four.
Angie and Jordon – who got married the day after her 16th birthday – went on to bring their son Hudson into the world when she was 17.
The couple then tragically lost five babies through miscarriage, before falling pregnant with baby number three – Finley, who was born last year.
Detailing their family’s backstory back in 2022 when she was pregnant with Finley, mum-to-be Angie explained: “We met at [Jordon’s] birthday party.

“One of our mutual friends asked him if I could come and that’s how we met.”
The two then fell for one another and, just a few months later, Angie broke the news that she’d fallen pregnant, despite being on birth control – and they took eight tests before they fully believed the news.
Angie explained: “I’m not sure why it didn’t work for us, but we were meant to have a kid at that point.”
She later added: “If somebody told me they were pregnant at 15, I would definitely be shocked as well. I knew that we weren’t going to get the best reactions from people.”

Continuing to reveal how people unfairly judged her for being a teen mum, Angie previously admitted: “Everyone had a different reaction when we told them we were pregnant.”
She continued in the interview with : “[There was] a lot of anger, shock and disappointment.
“A lot of people suggested we not go through with it, or give her up for adoption.”
Angie added: “The judgement can be hard. I was still very young and in school when I found out I was pregnant, so I lost everybody that I was close to because we no longer had the same lives.”
Meanwhile, strangers on the internet have been quick to have their say and have not held back with their strong opinions.
Opening up her phone to social media, Angie scrolled through numerous “hate” comments insinuating that they wouldn’t be able to supply for their children, as she said: “Everybody wants us to fail, so you have more pressure on you.”
She also detailed: “They say I’m pathetic and that this is not something to brag about and an embarrassment.”

But Angie – who elsewhere in the chat said “I’ve been pregnant seven times and I’ve had five miscarriages” – said she couldn’t be happier to have a big family at a young age.
Angie – who said becoming a mum has changed her for the better – said: “The miscarriages have taught me to just be grateful for the kids that I have. I always wanted a big family.”
Now, a year on from the original interview, Angie and Jordon have another big reason to smile – they recently announced that they are over the moon to be pregnant with baby number four.
In a posted to her social media accounts and YouTube channel, Angie – who maintains that age doesn’t make you a good parent – said she was “so freaking excited to be pregnant and welcome our fourth baby into this world and be complete with our family.”
Going on to hit back at her critics who say to her “4 kids at 21? That would be horrible!” Angie posted a compilation video of her family’s magical memories.
