single mom

my name is ashley im 16 years old and i have a 7 month old baby girl. When i found out i was pregnant i was scared but excited. I knew that i was going to have a little person that belonged only to me!! I mean well to my fiance and myself. my fiance was so supportive when i told him of the pregnancy. He took me to my appointments. one day we were at his house and he was rubbing my tummy and out of no were he asked me to marry him. of course i said yes! he took my virginity and i was in love with him. my baby girl is my world and i am the sun. She is my everything. i LOVE having my own little family. Dylan and i are stronger than ever and little baby girl elania just made it that much stronger. So if your pregnant dont get sad its a blessing.!!

Birthday Gift

Hi My name is Carmen and I am 32 weeks pregnant.
Sadly, the father was too much of a coward to stay with me because he didn't want to face responsibilities. I found I was pregnant 2 days before my birthday April 7. I had been pregnant for three months and I didn't know. Or I knew but I didnt want to believe that it was true.
I told him that I was pregnant and he just ran to his mommy and let her to all the talking. Anyways, I was lucky enough to have my friends to support me, and my mom. Though we have our ups and downs but I am really glad shes here for me and supporting me * emotionally*!
Oh I forgot I am 15! The youngest so far! :(
I knew that what I was doing was stupid but obviously I didnt use condoms or the pill. Other than that, I already have everything for my baby and I am really excited and I know that this happened for a reason! I want to be the best mom I can be and i don't need a man to help me. I was tempted to go and beg for him to stay with me but I had my mom to tell me that what I was going to do was ridiculous and very shameful. So I am going to be a single mom and I am proud to be one!
And all the girls out there should be too. If the guy doesn't want to be with you or he abuses you. He's worthless and dont stay with him just because your baby needs a father ( Thats the worse excuse you can find). The truth hurts and the truth is that the baby is better off being without a father than actually having one. :)
Be strong! And now you have a baby to look out for. and the best part is that you will grow up with your baby, so you are not alone!
And I realize that now! :)
I can't wait to see my little angel! I am due in October! So time is running out and Im very excited! :)

Single Mom to Be

Hello iam shannon
iam 6 months pregnant and i have just found out that the dad of my baby has already got another child with my best mate and i didnt know.
and then he tells me that he doesnt want nothing to do with me and the baby now.
so iam going to be a single mom at the age of 16 years old
but he wanted to know me when he had to take his anger out on someone and it was mainly me
i went back to him time and time again and then i just had enough when one day he hit me that hard i was in hospital for 4 days
my mom knows that iam pregnant but she doesnt know that i was abused by him.
iam going to love this baby so much and its not going to go without i dont want my baby to be brought up like me though without seeing her dad and i dont know what to do?
thanks for reading this

Shannon.

Confused scared but excited

hey my names rebecca i am 16 and just recently found out that i am pregnant. Me and the father of the baby were together on and off for 2 years , I would leave because of domestic violence but I always went back to him .
He just recently Got 6months imprisoment because of D.V.
I dont whant to go back to him because i have now got a baby to worry about, and right now thats the most important thing so im worried im going to be a 16 year old single mum .
I havent just yet told my mother because i no this s going to hurt her probally just as much as it is hurting me, I dont belive in abortions or giving my new born away to a couple of strangers.
I no im going to love my baby and make shore she has a happy and safe child hood
thanks for reading if theres other people out there i really need some support..

struggling single mommy

My name is anahy and I have a one
Year old son whose dad will not even
Care to call if he is okay. When I found out I was pregnant he was very happy and supportive but when he saw all the major responsobilities this had brought him, he ran. I don't regret having my son as he is what makes me smile every morning and I love him so much. I know his father cares but right now he would rather party than be tied down with responsobilities. I have learned to live with the fact that he is not even worth being called a father. I know one day he will wake up and regret his decision and ask for his son and I will tell him "which son?"
