im 16 and im pregnant with a little boy. Im 25 weeks along. I was just wondering if anyone knows like the risk factors for my baby having something wrong with him . I have had an ultrsound and all my test come out good, but im still worried.

There is a bit of a risk when you are young, but I think it is relative to preterm birth rather than any birth defects. As long as you have received good prenatal care early in your pregnancy there is nothing to worry about. The ultrasound at 25 weeks is very accurate and would have picked up any issues. Try not to worry so much, good luck.
