Im pregnant and 15!! Got any tips for me?

Answer 1

Talk to your parents and go from there

Answer 2

There are worse things to do then to be pregnant when your 15. Just means you will mostly never have done drugs and won't grow up to be an alcoholic. Just being honest I had one at 18 and I know I had to get my life together pretty darn fast. I would see about getting a GED and looking into something in the medical field a vocational course. You will need it. With being 15 you are going to need your parents help through it all. You can raise a kid on a 5.25 and hour these days. Look into WIC and there are programs that can help with getting you started. But being 15 adoption might not be so bad either because you get alot of help and counsling there to and they will help talk it over with your parents if need be. They have open adoption to were it make the process alot easier these day.Abortion is not the answer.
Good Luck...

Answer 3

Okay, I just want to start off by saying that you are NOT a bad person or a ***** because you got pregnant at such a young age. It happens, society really needs to be more accepting of this type of stuff. Screw all that bullshit about waiting til your married. IT DOESN'T HAPPEN!!! I know because I got pregnant at 18 with my boyfriend who was 17 at the time. I was 19 when I had my first daughter. Her father: never ever around. And he said he LOVED ME! I was young and wanted to be in love so I believed him. That pregnancy was the hardest thing to go through in my life. I was sooooo in love with this guy and made every attempt to get him back so we could be a family, but it never worked-until I was already in love and pregnant with another man's child. I said screw you. He has never been a dad to her. Now, I have been with my youngest daughter's father for 4 years and we have another on the way. My suggestion to you is to find any kind of support system. parent, sisters, brothers, anyone because you will need it. I don't think abortion is the answer, and though I am not opposed to it, I don't think you could handle it, especially at a young age. Adoption is another option, however, when you spend 9 months carrying that child, there is no way you are going to want to give it up. There is so much attachment from the moment you find out you are pregnant and that attachment grows everyday. Do what you want, but really think about it and get counseling and advice. Remember, pregnancy is sooo hard on the body, the younger you are, the harder it is. And you are not ruining your lifebecause of this. I still have a life, when I want too. Then again I am 10 years older than you and have two kids and a fiance, so I guess I don't get much of a life. You have no idea how incredibly hard you are going to have it. Not to scare you, but being a mom, truly is the hardest thing you will ever do. It is also very rewarding and worth it though. Just finish school and go to college. There are tons and tons of grants out there for lower-income families to be able to attend college, and, they don't have to be repaid. Trust me I have been doing it for years. Anyway, it's up to you what you do. Just try to think about how your decision will affect you and your baby, don't listen to anyone else! If you ever need more advice, e-mail me. [e-mail]
Good luck

Answer 4

Yes, pray for triplets. They come out easier when you have a multiple birth. Tell the father to leave town and stay out of your life forever. You don't need no control freak telling you what to do. Move out on your own. You can raise a child working at a fast food joint, sweeping floors. Are you catching the hint?

You've done so many dumb things already. Why stop the roll? Are you really ready to listen to someone for real advice, or do you want someone to pity you?

Name the baby Cleophus, and this way his/her life will be just as screwed up as yours.


On a serious tip, if you don't have family support, give the child up for adoption. Then keep your legs closed until you are responsible (married hopefully) to be fair to the child that you are bringing into this world.

Answer 5

Goodness girl! Well first you need a strong support system. Family and Friends. If you haven't told anyone- don't tell them that you went online first to get advice, tell them you need support and understanding right now, this is a very emotional time right now especially since you are still in school. You need to decide if you want to keep the baby or not, personally if your not going to keep the baby I suggest finding a good adoption agency, I wouldn't abort, too many things can go wrong with that, and its extreamly physically painful along with heavy bleeding and nausea if I understand it correctly. From the time you make your choice tell your family your lost and need help- if they don't want to help find someone close that will understand and help you out a little bit, you shouldn't be completely alone on this but don't expect anyone to do anything for you, even though I've said have a strong support system you also need to know how to be independant, I don't mean moving out on your own or running away- just responsible.
What ever you decide remember your not alone, it might help to find a local support group to help you out on this.

Answer 6

No matter what happens stay in school talk to your parents talk to school counselor there are programs for you and your baby I also became pregnant at 15 my first born will be 15 7-27-06 im 31 just be the best at all you do.

I hear where you're coming from. Im 18 and i have a 4 year old and a new 3 month old. I had a baby at the age of 14, sad but, she is doing well. I just graduated validictorian and im doing great. It may be tough at times, but try to get through it and dont other kids bum you out.. just remember, now you got a baby. Other parents will judge you too.. dont worry. Good Luck!

Answer 8

you know ive read some really rude answers to your question. dont listin to those people. this is your life. your lifes not ruined im 22 with 3 children all under 3 and they are the best thing that has ever happened to me. my first sons father isnt around, but my husband now raises him as his own. im happy even if my husband wasnt in the picture. dont let people make you think having a child at a young age is a bad thing. you may get frustrated at times with your child but you will look at him or her and be happy you didnt miss out on the joys of being a parent.you never know something could happen to you in a few years and the doctors say you wont ever be able to concieve again. why lose your chance now?[e-mail] questions or anything please email me.

Answer 9

WELL CONGRATULATIONS HAVING A CHILD IS A WONDERFUL THING BUT IT CAN ALSO BE SCARY. THE ONLY THING I CAN TELL YOU IS DO WHAT YOU FEEL IS RIGHT IN YOUR HEART. YOU PARENTS MAY TELL YOU ONE THING YOUR CHILD'S FATHER MAY TELL YOU ANOTHER, BUT AFTER EVERYONE HAS THEIR SAY YOU ARE GOING TO BE THE ONE TAKE CARE OF THAT CHILD. I GOT PREGNANT WITH MY SON WHEN I WAS 16 AND HAD HIM WHEN I WAS 17.(HE IS NOW 5) I WAS A LITTLE SCARED AT FIRST BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN, HOW I WAS GOING TO SUPPORT THIS BABY, AND ON TOP OF THAT HIS DAD WAS A DEAD BEAT. BUT WHEN YOU ARE A MOTHER YOU WILL DO WHAT EVER IT TAKES TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR CHILD REMEMBER THAT. DON'T LET ANYONE MAKE YOU DO ANYTHING THAT YOU WILL REGRET LATER ON IN LIFE. I HAD AN ABORTION AND I REGRET DOING IT BECAUSE I WANTED THE BABY BUT MY BOYFRIEND DIDN'T. SO THAT'S WHY I SAY BE CAREFUL IN WHAT EVER YOU DECIDE TO DO AND JUST BE STRONG. YOU WOULD NOT BE THE FIRST YOUNG TEEN TO HAVE A BABY AND CERTAINLY NOT THE LAST. BE STRONG YOU CAN DO IT. GOOD LUCK !!!!!!!

Answer 10

Please what ever you do, please don't get an abortion. I don't know if you were planning on keeping the baby or giving it up for adoption. But the only reason that I say this is that there are some people out there that can't have kids. Please talk to your parents and work something out.

Some tips can be, don't smoke, don't drink, don't do drugs, take your prenatal vitamins (extremely important), take folic acid, don't lift heavy things, please stay in school, that is one of the most important things that you can do for your baby. Just be very careful.

I am one of those people who haven't been fortunate enough to have children. I have been with my fiance for 8 years now and we have been trying for 17 months now. I do have an appointment this week to see the fertility clinic.

So best of wishes to you, good luck and keep us posted on how you are feeling.

Good Luck!!!

Answer 11

Well since your 15, you may still want to get an education, or maybe you/your parents don't have much money..in that case I would adopt to a Christian home
Now..in the case you DON'T want to adopt, I would try to get finacial/emotional support from friends/relatives/a church anything! I would also look in to government or finacial organizations such as welfare
If you STILL want to go to school/finish your education I would take homeschooling for highschool and then fight out what opportunities are available to you if you wish to go to college...such as daycare
I would also sign up for free sites online...i think theres one called babysites or something...basically there's alot of information online
..I would also get your boyfriend..or if you don't have a boyfriend..get a really good friend to take you to the doctor so you can start providing your baby with prenatal care. Also watch your diet, and look into eating things that are good for your baby,like milk,and peanutbutter. If your planning on keeping the baby look into goodwill stores for baby clothes..or you can find stores such as "baby lot" online which are real cheap. Try doing online searches and type in cheap baby clothes or something..
Maybe look at bargain finders for stuff people are willing to give away for cheap. Also if you keep the baby be sure to breastfeed since it helps you bond with your baby and saves money. And if you can't look into welfare programs. Also look online and talk to moms or join a support group! Basically try talking to people that can give you further advice...I hope some of this helped you! God bless!
