i love my baby girlso i found out i was pregnant when i was 16 years old. I was entering my senior year of high school. the father had moved to college in new york so he was not able to help with the baby although he wanted to. my parents were absolutely furious so they kicked me out of the house and i went to live with my best friend jess for a few months. my parents finally came to terms with the situation and let me live at home again. from that point on, they were semi- helpful with the pregnancy, but they were still against me keeping her. i did anyways, because i knew it was what i wanted and i know now that that was the best decision have ever made. i love my baby girl more then anything in this world. my old friends always want to hang out with me, but i could not get myself to leave her side for a second. i dropped out of school, so i spend all my time with her and it makes me happier then anything i could be doing she is named aubrey blaire macaulley vivianna my blessing :)i am 13, and in my 5th month. my baby wasnt planned, but is a blessing to me. i was following the wrong path, but as soon as i fell pregnant, i found my way again. i do not live with my parents, but with my older sister, Leah who's 20. shes like a mom to me, because our parents werent great role models and as soon as Leah was old enough she moved out and took me too. my sister respects my desicion, especially as my baby brought me back from the edge. the father, josh is 18, and he says he will pay, but he doesnt really want a relationship with the baby, just to help out because its partly his responsibility. i hope to find out soon whether it is a boy or girl, if its a girl she will be called Rosie Annaleis Emma, and a boy would be called William Oscar Harvey. my little joy is due 3rd of january next year, and i'll be 14 by then. a lot of people say im way too young, but they dont understand how this baby has helped me, it has made me grow up and realise my wrong doings. i thought id share my story because some people think teen moms are shameful, low, and stupid for not using protection and all that, but you cant just scoop us all up into that category, sure some girls prbably are like that, but im fed up of people looking at me like that! i DID use protection, i was on the effing pill! i mean not every teen mom screws up, give us a chance yeah? then make ur judgements. abbie Hopefully Teen Mum?I am seventeen and just yesterday I took a pregnancy test and it came out positive and it said I was over three weeks. I've been feeling nausea for a little over a week now. I wish it would stop. My boyfriend and I have been together for seventeen months, and I told him I was pregnant. He wasn't upset or mad or anything, he was just worried about everything. I haven't yet told my parents about me being pregnant. Only a few of my friends know. I'm afraid of telling my parents because I don't know what their reaction would be. I think I am going to tell my mother today, because I don't want to wait until it's too late to tell her. My father is going to be upset, he just wants me to do good in life. And I still have one more year left of school to attend to. I don't want to get an abortion because my boyfriend and I are against that. And I know my father wouldn't let me give the baby up for adoption. So I guess whatever happens, happens. I wouldn't mind keeping the child, but I know it's not going to be easy. I just hope I can be a good mother for my baby. I hope my parents' reactions aren't too bad when I tell them I am pregnant. Wish me luck.Karleeh SO CONFUSEDI was 16 when I found out I was pregnant, I was so shocked, a mixture of feelings, me and my mum have only just got as close so I felt as if I could tell her and she'd support me. I knew she wanted me to get an abortion but made sure I knew it was my decision. I knew what she wanted so I didn’t want to disappoint her. I’m still stuck, I can see my little boy/ girls face and imagine my life with the baby my own little creation holding the baby and giving her all my love, but then I’m thinking of my life and how much it’s going to change. I’m So scared! And confused. Some days I’m determined that I want to keep the baby then others I feel maybe it’s better to get an abortion, the thought of this little fetus growing inside of my everyday gettin stonger and bigger, every thing i eat were sharing seems unfair to just 'get rid of it' . I really don’t know what to do. :(Alisha teen momI was 15 when i found ot i was pregnant, my parents were furiouse i thought i had my boyfriends help and it wasnt how i thought my daughter has epilepsy i am still in highschool trying to graduate and go to college for a better life for my daughter hopefully she wont ask about her dad he doesnt care about her, its hrd but ill do anything for my daughterana Page: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82 | ||||||||||||||||
