A 16-year-old and a 14-year-old are convinced they want to get pregnant and become mums.

Series about two teenage girls who face a potentially life-changing decision. The 16-year-old and 14-year-old are convinced they want to get pregnant and become mums.

Documentary which follows two teenage girls who are on the brink of making a big decision. Separated by age, culture and geography, but sharing the same all-consuming desire to have a baby, the girls go on a very personal journey of self discovery. But they are not going on their own - they are taking their mums and grans with them. 

Taking a break from everyday life, six women embark on a five-day road trip across the UK, immersing themselves in the world of teen pregnancy. Offering help and support throughout the experience, it is the last chance the older women have to persuade the teenagers to think about making the right choice. 

16-year-old Chantelle lost her virginity at 13. Having now been with her 20-year-old boyfriend for two years she is desperate for a child, but her mum Mandy and gran Maggie are against the idea. So why does Chantelle so desperately want to be a teen mum?

Only child Lydia is convinced she is independent enough to raise a child even though she is only 14 and doesn't have a boyfriend. Mum Josephine cannot understand why she wants to throw her teenage years, and her future, away.

Along the way, the families are introduced to a variety of people and situations designed to get them talking openly and honestly and help inform the teens before they make their Big Decision. Both families get to meet a real-life teen mum, visit a maternity ward and hear about the harsh reality of giving birth from a new mum. The teens get the chance to experience what it is like to be a parent when they are given a computerised baby to look after. 

Finally, after five days on the road, have the experiences had an effect on the Lydia and Chantelle? Do they still want to have a baby and become a teen mum?

BBC3's season taking a snapshot of the lives of teenagers in today's society opens with this series: five programmes focusing on teenage girls growing up too fast. This first follows Lydia, aged 14, and Chantelle, 16, on a five-day road trip - accompanied by female relatives - as they discover the reality behind their mutual (naive) burning desire: to have a baby. Now. Along the way they meet teenage mothers and a woman who has just given birth, care for a doll that behaves like a real baby, and dabble in a career. But will it change their minds? (Nick Griffiths)

The Inside Story: My Big Decision (9.00pm BBC3), a five-part series challenging the mindsets of teenage girls, begins with Lydia (14, left) and Chantelle (16, right), both of whom are desperate to have babies. "There are a lot of teenagers who think they want to be mothers," says executive producer Elliott Reed.
Later episodes deal with boob jobs, liposuction, sex and drinking, but all the teens have something in common: "They want to grow up too fast," says Reed. "We provide them with the harsh realities of the consequences of their decisions."
