HAVING a baby is an exciting moment in most women’s life.
But for one mum who has been sharing her pregnancy journey online – people seem to be more focused on her age.
Makayla, from the US, is often mistaken for being younger than she actually is.
In one TikTok video, the comment section was inundated with people asking how old she was – as they thought she was too young to have a child.
The mum-of-one, aged 22, stunned users thanks to her youthful looks – with many thinking she was far younger than she actually is.
She welcomed a little boy into the world and while many offered their congratulations, some were more concerned with her age.

One wrote: “How old are you?”
“How old are you anyways,” asked another.
A third commented: “How old are you??”
“22 stop asking,” replied Makayla, who seemed to be getting frustrated with people asking her.
Another commented: ‘what are you 15, 16, you need to be a child not be having a child but other than that that is so exciting.”
Makayla responded, saying: “22 and married mind your business… if you can’t be happy for someone else keep scrolling.”
