This is a research with a qualitative, descriptive and exploratory approach, carried out with five adolescent mothers, in two Family Health Strategies, in a municipality in Rio Grande do Sul / RS, during the second semester of 2020, through an interview half structured. The research made it possible to understand the adolescents 'perceptions of motherhood, to identify the physical, psychological and social changes that occurred during the pregnancy-puerperal period, as well as to understand the adolescents' support network.
