Still A Baby & Having A Baby!

My Story is different, i turned 16 in November 2010, i've been with my boyfriend now for 2 months, he's 20 and willing to help. we are together and in love, knowing him for 3 years as a best-friend has now paid off. i am 3 weeks pregnant and worried, i'm still young, not experienced, what should i do? Paul (boyfriend) has told me, he's gonna stick by me and the baby, get us a house, a permanent job with good income.... but it's not that, that i'm worried about. My mom and pop, are not really that fussed on teen pregnancy's, with all my 3 sisters having children in there middle and late 20's, i feel as if my mom and pop are going to look down on me, it's just hard, but i supposed i can do it! Now, We just look forward to our beautiful baby being born! :)

adoption

Alot of people are against adoption. I was to until i was put into a situation where adoption was my only option. I was 16 with a 4 month old little boy when i got raped and got pregnant.I didnt tell anybody that the child i was carrying was the product of a rape.My boyfriend and father of my son told everyone it was his. He didnt know that it wasnt.I was about 5 months pregnant when me and my boyfriend broke up and i moved back i with my mom.I was taking care of my son and my neice.Adoption crossed my mind but i didnt think i could do it so i decided to keep the baby.I didnt know how i was going to support him or if i could even love him but he was apart of me and i didnt know what to do.One day i was listening to the radio and a commercial came on about adoption.I decided to call and get information.I was 7 months pregnant. The adoption place put me in touch with Bethany Christian Center.I talked to them and a woman came out and brought me information about adoption and i decided to give my son up. Not because i didnt love him but because i wanted him to have a life i couldnt give him.I was a single 17 yr old mom with no job and no education.The woman brought me some portfolios of hopeful people hoping to adopt.I looked at e few and didnt see one that i liked and then i came to a couple that i fell in love with.They were everything i wanted for my son.when i finally met them i knew without a doubt they were the ones.Well i went into labor 2 weeks early and my best friend was there for me.When i had him i didnt want to see him.I just couldnt.But the next day i asked the nurse to bring him to me.I broke down when i saw him.He looked just like me.The adoptive parents came to the hospital but i made them leave.I couldnt hand over this baby.He was mine,but the more i looked at him i knew if i kept him i was being selfish and he would suffer.All the nurses at the hospital talked about me and was very rude to me when i decided for sure i was giving him up.The day i handed Aiden Taylor to his parents was the hardest day of my life.I cried for weeks after.Today Aiden is almost 2 and i see him all the time.He is so beautiful and happy.He has the kind of life i could never have given him.I still cry about him and still feel the mothers instincts toward him but i know he now has the best mother in the world.

Maybe when the baby gets here and he gets to see and touch it , he will do right, but its only so mcuh he's going to do so i know it will be juss me & my momma taking care of it !

Pregnant at 16.

I am 16 years old. In 10th grade in high school, I met my baby's dad over two years ago, and he was saying how he was so in love with me and made me feel like he was really going to be with me for the rest of my life. He told me so many sweet things to make me believe that he was the one for me. He told me that he wanted to have a baby with me so we tried many times then me and him broke up and then a few weeks later, I took a pregnancy test and it came up positive, so I sent a message to his uncle asking if I could talk to him and he said that I could, so my baby's dad texted me and asked me what I wanted, and I told him that i was pregnant with his baby. And it had been about 2 monthes since we had talked. I told him that I was about two months along. He told me that I was dumb. And asked me what baby becuase he denied ever having sex with me. So here I am 17 weeks pregnant, by myself. Then my baby's dad told me that he was going to try to get my baby taken away from me to get back at me for not coming back to him. I'm going to be a single mother. My parents don't know. I dont really know what to do at this point.

teen at 15, mom at 16

the month before i turned 16 of last year i got pregnant by my boyfriend at the time. it was not planned or expected at all. i went through 5 months of not knowing for sure that i was pregnant. horrible right? i still had, what ithought, was my period.
Josh, the father< had ran not long after me and him had sex. i felt like i jwas lower than low because i was used for that.
Right now, he does knwo that he has a little girl due the beginning of Aprill 2011. but he still does not come around. it is hard knowing that you do not have that other special person beside you to comfort you when times get hard.
i am thrity week snad five days right now and i love being pregnant. just hate those days where i feel like nothing is possible.
