Britain's youngest mother Tressa Middleton photos she is expecting her second child
A girl who fell pregnant at the age of 11 and became Britain’s youngest mother is expecting her second child.
Tressa Middleton from Bathgate, West Lothian, now aged 18, was forced to give up her toddler for adoption two years after giving birth in 2006.
The decision came after she revealed the baby was born as the result of a rape by her own brother.

Britain's youngest mother, Tressa Middleton is now pregnant with her second child
Although Tressa spent several years addicted to drugs and alcohol after quitting school, she says she has now turned her life around and is ready to be a mother.
She is in a relationship with her fiance, trainee mechanic Darren, 25, who she lives with, and she has announced that she is two months’ pregnant.
Tressa told Closer magazine: 'I did not want to give up my daughter, but I was too young to be a mum.
'I feel ready now. My daughter can’t be replaced, but this is a second chance.'
She discovered she was pregnant first time round in 2005 and at first claimed a local boy was the father to protect her mother, Tracey Tallons, 39.
After giving birth she describes that she never stopped the 'fags and drink', and soon spiralled out of control under the very noses of her social workers.
She ended up in a residential unit, rather than with her child and it seemed inevitable that the authorities were always going to take Tressa's baby away .
When she was 14, she revealed that her twisted brother Jason was the father of her child.
And when it came out, her family fell apart in the event, and Tressa was left to sign papers authorising the adoption.
'I signed the papers because I knew I would lose in court and they would take her from me anyway. This way I thought I would get visitation rights.'
In 2009 Jason Middleton was jailed for four years and has now been released and lives at home with his mother. He was 16 when the attack happened, at the family home in West Lothian, five years older than his sister.
