r. thought...it is done she just is now mind your business.
Hey sweetie! I'm not a teenager, but my fiancee and I are pregnant and due this weekend. Congratulations on making the pro life choice. That is all that matters now. What's done is done. Now, do what is the best for you and the baby. You have a whole adventure on the way! Hang in there. If you need to ask a question, I'd be more than happy to help.

I'm not a teen and I'm not pregnant, but it sounds like you are really scared, or confused and need some kind words. First, I am sorry at such a young age that you are in this position. You have your entire life ahead of you, and the next 10 years should have been focused on YOU, your education, emotional growth, then ultimately a career, to set a solid foundation. Now, you have someone else to consider, and I am sure it will be very difficult. That does not mean it cannot be done, but it will be extra hard for you to maintain your studies, work, take care of a baby, hire a sitter, etc, etc.,
There are options for you as I am sure you know. I am not speaking of abortion of course, but adoption. I would recommend if you are "thinking" that you may not be able to care for your baby, that you contact an agency in your area and go and talk to someone. There are also birthmother seminars that agencies hold for girls in your position. There is no pressure, it's up to you.
If you are keeping your baby, I hope you have a great support system, family, friends, etc., you are going to have to rely on them. I wish you luck, and I wish you peace in whatever you do.

I have been where you are, I'm now 26 and I found out I was pregnant four months after my 16th B-day. I'm going to tell you what my mother told me...you have to live your own life and make your own choices and mistakes no one can live your life but you. When I found out i was scared and didn't know what to do. I knew that I couldn't go back and change the choices that I had made, so instead i had to focus on the baby and go forward. I will tell you to try to stay in school I didn't and i regret it to this day. I hope that your family and the baby's father are there to support you. My family, the baby's father, and my friends were all a huge support for me. Get good prenatal care you'd be surprised at how many teens wait until later on to do this. Good Luck and best wishes

I am not a pregnant teen. I am almost forty years old. But I was many years ago. I had my first son when I was 16. And I can tell you that it was hard to raise a child when I was so young. But with the help of my then young husband and my family I did it. My son is now 22 yrs old and married. He is going to college to become a Psychologist and i am very proud of him and the rest of my children.
The best advice that I can give you is to please stay in school. You have no idea how much harder life is on you if you do not have your education.
Good luck

I had my first kid at 17, and second at 19. I'm probably in a unique situation because my boys' dad and i were talking wedding bells even b4 i was even pregnant, so we just moved the date up. My parents weren't supportive (they wanted abortion) so i haven't talked to them since i left home at 17. I still managed to graduated high school (i gave birth a week after graduation) and i'm just now getting into college (i'm 21). If you think i could be of help let me know.
i also have a brother in law whos wife and him had their first child at 15/16 and they're still together 20 years later.

Honey - the people that I HOPE you have been talking to would include your mom and dad, the sperm donor of the baby, pediatrician and your priest/minister/rabbi.
I won't bore you with the lecture and you might be too young to fully understand the gravity of your situation, but talking to other pregnant teens will not solve your problem.
Seek professional guidance and moral support from family and experts.

I'm not like you but I have friends who have been in the same boat you are in...my one question for you is are you prepared for what is coming up in the next 5 months? YOu need to get with the father of your child and see where his head is and see if you need to start filing paper work to the court in which ever state you reside in....start now so there wont be any issues when it comes to who will be helping you with your child
