I want to get pg and i am 16 and a virgin, what should i do?

Question

i really want to, not for attention but bc i want a baby and the responcibility,

Answer 1

You should grow up, for starters.

Finish school so you can have a proper education, so you can have a decent job that allows you time and money to raise your child.

And you should get married, so that you have someone who completes the parent package, supports you emotionally and financially, and provides the child with the parents it needs.

Dont do foolish stupid things just because you want to. Beig 16 is not the same as being an adult, you just think it is because its natural to assume you're all grown up at your age.

Answer 2

Even though you feel like you are ready, wait a few years and finish school first. The responsibility may sound fun, but its nowhere near like playing house.

How do you plan to provide for your child? In many areas, you can't work more than 20 hours per week at a part time job, and even then the majority of your money is taken out of taxes.
Megan11034 listed a good estimate about the money required for a child. Thats something for you to think about. Also consider the fact that there are a lot of unexpected financial burdens with a child. Your child could get sick (as all children do) will need to see the doctor thats around $150, if your child needs medicine that could be around $200 dollars depending on the type of medication needed, could be sick and need hospitalization anywhere from 150-200 dollars A DAY, and thats not even counting treatment, which adds a couple of hundred dollars easily.

A child is a lifetime commitment. You can't just have a child, decide that you don't like what comes with it and then get rid of it.

Answer 3

Its not like pllaying house! How do you plan to provide for your baby???
Here are some things you should really think about before you just up and have a baby...
1. you are barely old enough to have a job
2. you are not even of legal age yet
3. you know nothing about responsibility yet get a puppy and see how you like that.
4. you havent even graduated from school. Good luck getting a job other than McDonalds

Cost of a baby$$$$$$$

normal vaginal delivery-$9,000 w/ no problems
Ultra sounds-$300 you normally get 3 of these
Checkups-$175 plan on once a month at least
Prenatal vitamins-$8 -$15
Crib-$100 at least
Wipes-$20 a month
Diapers-$75 a month
Formula-$50 a month if not more

Other things you MUST HAVE;
baby bottles$20, baby clothes $75at least, baby shampoo, lotion, swing, Car Seat$100, Stroller$100, diaper bag, high chair $50 at least, etc

Also do you even know what goes on during pregnancy and labor? You have a lot of pain...your skin and ligaments stretching, trust me this hurts, the constipation, morning sickness, gas, heartburn etc...

When you have the baby did you know that your vagina RIPS? Or the Dr. will CUT it. To make it big enough for the baby to come out...also you then get stitches think about going pee and how bad it would sting. Also you crap on the table.

Please dont be another teen pregnancy that has no future for you or your kid and is a drain on the tax payers money.
Stay in school, get an education, and then once you have some life experience, have a steady man and can afford a baby...then have a baby

Answer 4

I don't want to bash you for trying to get pregnant because you are 16, but I would really suggest that you should finish high school first. Without an education, it is probably going to be really hard to get a good job that will help you provide for your baby. I know what you mean about wanting a baby, I really do. I love children so much. When I was 16, I used to babysit all the time because I loved doing it so much. I would also want to ask if you had a boyfriend. Raising a baby at the age of 16 with no father would be so hard.

My advice for you as to what you should do to get pregnant is to find a loving and caring relationship, to finish high school, think about your future. Having a baby is a wonderful thing, but it is something that will change the rest of your life. You won't be able to go out with your friends. You won't be able to go to college. Your body also may not be prepared to give birth at this point, so there could be problems during labor.

Watch the movie "Fifteen and Pregnant", "Just Another Girl on the IRT", or "Saved". All of them involve teen pregnancy.

Maybe you could also look for a babysitting job. With that you get responsibility and you get to be around a baby, but it will not change your whole life.

Whatever you do, think about the environment that you will be bringing the baby into and how that baby will feel growing up.

Best of Luck.

Answer 5

Do you have a full time job and are you ready to prepare for your child...You will need a job a place to live a reliable baby sitter for when you are working....You have to support your child. You have to provide a roof over the child's head, food, clothing.....take them to the Doctor when they need to go. Know the signs when they are sick, happy and sad. Do you realize how much diapers cost? And do you know how many diapers your baby is going to go through? Tons of diapers.....By the time you come home from work, you will be tired. Are you going to be able to give love to your child? Oh lets back up a step, you will need to finish school first...because you will have a tough time getting a full time job if you don't have a diploma. Have you thought about all these things.....what are you going to do when you are tired of being a mother and want to be with your friends or worse a boyfriend? will you just push the baby aside to do all of this? having a child is a huge responsibility. At 16 you are not emotionally or financially stable to raise a little baby.....My advice wait till you have all these things, and by all means get married first....It's a lot better for your child to have a mother and a father.....Don't be selfish. Don't bring a child into this world until you have everything you possibly can give this child......babies are not dolls. They are people too.

Answer 6

Please come take care of my child for a week. After 3 days you would come back a different person.

Kids are a blessing, and are a lot of fun, sometimes.

You never get a moment by yourself for the next 18 years, you don't go out, you have no money.

A lot of people think they can make it on a small salary, but you can't. And what are you going to do when that child is sick with a horrific cough, fever, vomiting and you have to look at her and tell her you don't have enough money for medicine?

Wait for a baby until after college. Then you can get a good job and raise the baby right.

Answer 7

you want a baby? why? honey I'm not going to lecture you cuz you are going to do what you want anyway. but first let me ask you these ?'s what can you give baby now at age 16 that you can't give it when you are older? i mean would you not have love for a baby when you are an adult? do you have a job to support this future baby? what kind of job can you get without a HS diploma now a days you can't get a good job even without a college degree.I'm thinking you really haven't thought about the whole picture you are only 16 why would you want to do this to a child who never asked to be born in the first place.I'm not saying you wouldn't be a good mom cuz you might be but i think you need to get a job and have that kind of responsibility or get a puppy first before you bring a child into this world.

Answer 8

honey you are still a baby yourself and your brain has not completely devoloped yet. I know a few people that were teenage mothers and they tell me that if they would have known the things that they know now they would have waited. Sure having a baby is great and a great challange but they change your life and you are not done growing yet. Make sure you are ready for these changes before you have a baby. A baby take alot of time and money and in order for you to support your child you need an education. Just wait

Answer 9

Sweetie, I think you should wait. At least untill you find the right guy. Having a baby changes you'r whole life. And it is really hard, but even harder as a single parent. Right now you need to live you'r life, enjoy you'r freedom, and get all of the wild stuff out of you'r system. I always wanted to have a baby too but I waited untill I was 23 to have my first child. Looking back on it now, I'm really glad that I waited. Even though I did not wait to find the right guy, so I know what it's like to be a single parent. Just remember, you have you'r whole life ahead of you, so don't rush it. There will be plenty of time in the future. Best of wishes to you.

Answer 10

First you need to grow up some more, finish high school, go to college or start a career, establish yourself and build a nice home for yourself. Become financially independent of your parents and the welfare system.

Step two: get married and make sure your marriage is solid, stable, and loving. Make sure your partner wants a child and is ready to be an involved, loving father.

When you have done all these things, congratulations, you will be ready for a baby and the responsibility of it!! Right now, you don't even know how to SPELL responsibility. Good grief!
