Enjoy it! This is a whoel new experience for you. A friend of mine got pregnant really young and there was a lot of struggling and fighting with parents, etc.. etc .. etc .. Now that she is older she would love to get pregnant again so she can enjoy things she was not able to the first time. So consider this a blessing...kr
Good Luck!

You bite the bullet and accept that you're starting over. I can say that because I had my son at age 17. He's 25 now, and I'm 42....my husband is 51 and our daughter is due this Sunday, lol! Believe me, when I found out I was pregnant, I cried for a week...but now I'm excited and happy! This time is a different experience. Being a teen parent, and being an adult parent makes all the difference. Now you have not only baby experience, but LIFE experience!
And just for the record...we WERE using protection. Sometimes, these things happen for a reason.

First off, if you do not feel you want to start over again, please give the child up for adoption. I can't stand the thought of abortion. In fact I am severely against abortion. If you do (secretly I hope you do) feel up to it, then by all means CONGRATS!!! 37... that's not OLD! Take some refresher courses if you are scared that you aren't up to par, but like it did at 16, it will all fall into place for you at 37.

My husbands mother had another baby when he was about the same age as your daughter. I think that you should sit back, enjoy your pregnancy, share this wonderful time with your daughter and family. You are certainly blessed! Congratulations to you and your family.

Enjoy the second round of motherhood.
Think of all the experiences that you went thru that you now know how to handl better. You may not have as much energy, but you have infinitely more wisdom to share with this one.
They all are gifts from God.

Accept and love the gift God has given you. Do it while you still can.. and next time wear protection so no other surprises come up. Good luck! Enjoy!
