it all worked out in the end

well it all started i had been with my boyfriend jaydon for 3 years and im 14 and his 15 yea ino im was young. And he had allways said he would stick by me no matter what, well we had been having sex for ages now and ALLWAYSSSS used a condom. But weeks later i began to feel sick and get cramps and get bad headaces i didnt think anything of it but then i was sick nealy every morning i thought could i be pregnant. But i just kept telling my self that i was being silly. I then told jaydon that i thought i was pregnant he was shocked when i told him but said if i was he would allways be there and he came with me to get a pregnancy test. When i saw that it was POSTITIVE my heart sank but then i though my OWN little baby but i knew it wasnt that easy. I couldnt stop crying and jaydon kept telling me everything was going to be okay he was so sopportive. I knew i would start showing soon so i had to tell my mom and dad that was my BIGGEST challenge. And my bestfriend and friend my friends were shocked but stood by me and my bestfriend most of all she was an angel. Jaydons mom and dad were totally sopportive they said they would be by me every single step. My mom went MAD i had never seen her like that befor my sister had to lock her out side for a whole hour my mom would of went mad if she was in the house and my dad was worse he didnt talk to me for 2 months witch was bad enuff then he came to terms with it and was by my side. My mom had lost trust in me but still loved me the same but evan more for being honest when she came to terms with it she was so excited to see her little grandaughter. Jaydon and his mom and dad and my mom and dad spoiled me and my unborn daughter i and my daughter had everything i needed. On the 11th April 2009 i gave birth to my beautiful daughter Cherise Cleo James all my family were at the hospital and my bestfriend and my mom dad and jaydon were at the hospital shes the most important girl in my life. Shes 2 in april. Jaydon loves her to pieces and calls her his little princess jaydons family and my family spoil her to death. Im still with jaydon soon 4 years i no we will be together forever hes allways saying me and you forever weve got a family now.Jaydon and my daughter Cherise mean the WHOLE ENTIRE WORLD to me. i dont regret it one bit it all worked out in the end. DONT FORGET ALLLWAYSSSSS USE PROTECTION!

Stupidity!

What in the world am I thinking? I always looked at teen mothers like they were gross and disgusting because most of them had their children for the wrong reasons. Besides, I thought that pregnancy was wrong and I also thought that SEX was wrong too. I lost my virginity at the age of fifteen because I wanted to know what sex was like and it was a big mistake. The mistake was the guy and he was seventeen at the time. I have no contact with him and he is not even in my thoughts. I had sex with my current boyfriend. He is nineteen and I am sixteen turning seventeen in less than TWO months. We both love each other and we enjoy having sex with one another because we are sharing our passionate love. I am always watching the Maury show and I see those stupid teen girls on there talking about having babies or trying to find their father. I just didn't think that having a baby was a good thing to do when you don't even have the right to vote or order things on television. You can't even get your own place for God's sake!!!

Anyways, yesterday on Valentines Day (Feb. 14, 2010) we made love. We didn't use anything, but I knew he was going to use the Withdrawal Method since my mama is still trying to make appointments for me to get the Hormonal Implant. When he was about to "finish" he took it out (before he could finish). Then for some reason I told him that I wanted to have his baby. I have been having mixed emotions about this lately and I finally see why girls have kids, but I don't want one. I want one, but I don't. I don't want to have any big responsibilities right now because I still live with my mama and he does too. I can't even take care of myself. Something is truly wrong with me and he said that he wanted to have my baby too. He "finished" inside of me twice and I cried afterward because I'm ruining my life!!!! Why would I try to have a baby this young? I am just so stupid and I hope that I am not pregnant because I want to go to college at Virginia State and have a Masters Degree in Law. I want to be married and have a great life before I have kids...

Please don't have sex UNPROTECTED because it is not cute to have kids young or have a STD!!!

Dont panic!

Im 16 years old, and have a beautiful healthy baby boy, Noah.

He was my first proper boyfriend and the person I lost my virginity too, and to this day we are still together and better than ever.
I fell pregnant when I was 15 however didn't realise I was pregnant until a month or so into the pregnancy. Probelm was, I had been on the contraceptive pill since the age of 14 not because I was sexualy active at that age but because my hormones were sky high. Sometimes when you are on the pill its not always 100% protective and your periods become irregular. Or sometimes they stop all together therefore it becomes hard to keep track of them, which is how I ended up pregnant without knowing.

Yes- my life has changed dramaticaly since having Noah, and I have had to sacrafice a lot of things. When you have a baby, he or she needs your love and care constantly. I had to juggle being pregnant, school and a social life-which became hard, however, I was aware that if i wanted my baby and I to have a good life, I needed to stick to school. I did and I am now in my last year at school, (then I'm off to uni to hopefuly become a midwife.) I have had a lot of support from my parents which also made things a lot easier. Even though I am still with my boyfriend and us moving in together would probab;y be the most suitable solution, I am going to keep staying with my parents until I am old enough to get properly on my feet, and get a life going for myself and my baby.

The key to a teenage pregnancy is to stay calm, decide whether you are going to keep it or not, then get your life on track. Either that or just don't have sex until you want a baby!

She's Worth it All

I'm sixteen years old and full term. I'm ready to see my little girl .But i remember when I first found out I was pregnant. I was scared and didn't know what to do.The first person I told was my boyfriend, which would be the baby's father.He was scared too, but he was happy.We didn't know what to do.I didn't know how to tell my family or how to tell his.So we didn't. I went to bed thinking about how my life was going to change and how Ill be a mother really soon to how i was going to tell my fam and his fam and when. Days went by..then weeks and weeks became months.I still couldn't tell them.I know how disappointed they'd be in me.I knew they wouldn't be happy and I knew they would flip out. But I couldn't hide the morning sickness and not having a period and my pale face much longer.I stayed in my room most the time and wore big clothes and sometimes even my boyfriends clothes so they wouldn't notice my belly.

One day when we were on our way home from school, they told me they wanted me to take a pregnancy test when I got home. I tried to get out of it I even put water on it thinking it would make it negative. But they found out the big positive sign that didn't go away.They weren't happy at all and didnt talk to me for 4 or 5 days.We barely even looked at each other and they said I couldn't see the babys father anymore, which was hard because Ive been with her father over 2 years. As time went by they accepted it and now they couldn't be any happier.I am still with my baby's father and he has stuck beside me on everything along with my family. I dont think iI could do it without them. Its really hard to do now and shes not even here.I know that I got have a lot ahead of me and I know I'll have a baby to take care of for the rest of my life, but Im willing to do that. Shes deff. worth everything and I would give anything for her shes my life and isnt even here yet.But I had to go to the Dr as soon as possible because I didnt even know how far along I was. I thought maybe 3 months but I was 5 months.

Being a teenager and being pregnant is hard, but I wouldn't change a thing. I dont regret getting pregnant with her; I regret not waiting and having her later on. She'll be here any day now and I wouldn't change that. My family is supportive and so is my boyfriend's family.Their going to watch her while I go to school and I'm taking nursing classes over the summer. I'm trying to do all I can and so is her father.We both plan on finishing high school and going to college. I know its going to be hard but i know we can do it:)
