you might want to check out the new book by Deborah Davis, You Look Too Young To Be a Mother (google it, or amazon.com) it's a collection of essays by teen mamas, and it's supposed to be pretty empowering.

I dunno if this counts seeing as how I was "legal" by the time I had her, but I gave birth to DD1 three months after my 18th birthday. It was very hard being a teen parent. In hindsight I see what a crappy mother I was and I try to make up for it now by just being there and loving her more!! If you want to PM me, feel free.

I, also, had my first as a teenager.

You are welcome to PM or e-mail me with specific questions. I was 17 when my first was born, 20 at the birth of my second, and I will be 23 when my third arrives.
