Triplets at 16


When I was 15 I met a guy who I thought I loved. I guess most girls I know at around that age think they love someone, but I really felt it. I guess I was too scared at first to sleep with him. I was brought up in a home where you get grounded if your parents found out you kissed a guy, never mind sleep with him. And I was self-conscious too. I'm not fat and I’m not ugly, but I never liked myself, that’s why I was proud when this guy said he loved me back, and I knew he was the one! [[Yes that sounds so cheesy]]

So I guess we fooled around for a bit, but nothing too serious. But then, I wanted it. I wanted him. We had no protection, but I thought since it was my first time nothing would happen...right? WRONG I started getting sick in the mornings and I was kind of always hungry and I missed my period. I told my mom and she took me in to get a pregnancy test [[she was VERY mad that I had had sex]] Ok, at this time, the test turns out positive and she takes me to the doctors. I am 3 months already! But even more shockingly, there was more than one heart beat...more than 2...there was 3! Three distinct heart beats. I didn’t know what to do. I was scared. My birthday was in 6 months...around the time I should be due!! I was mortified.

So I told the boy that fathered my kids and he said I had to be joking. I told him it was no joke. But he stood by me the whole time and we are still together now.

The labor was long and hard, and the babies were being difficult and I had to have an emergency c- section. Not long after I had 3 beautiful, healthy babies. 1 boy [[Noah James]] and 2 girls [[Haily Elizabeth & Gabriella Lynn]]

They are now 6 months old and I couldn’t be happier. I am in the 10th grade going on the 11th. My parents have been supportive even though it is difficult to support me, my children and my siblings, but they do their best. And I thank them and God everyday for helping me through this.

could be


I've been pregnant once before, my daughter is three, and from the beginning she's talked about having two babies, a girl and a boy. I just thought it was wishful thinking on her part, but in the last few weeks I've become convinced I'm having twins.

I had a dream about 2 weeks ago, and my husband has dreamed it too. I'm almost 10 weeks and people have already noticed my belly. I didn't look pregnant last time until I was 4-5 months. I think I felt movement, which is wigging me out because I didn't feel my daughter for forever.

Anyway, I have an appointment this Friday, and I hope to find out if I'm crazy or not.

I was going home when I saw my boyfriend. He told me he missed me.

We hadn’t seen each other for 5 days. I went home to tell my mom my best friends were taking me to the movies when I really was going with Todd my boyfriend (17years old). We had rented a hotel room for the night. We went to our room and started to have mixed drinks. I started crying about how I thought I had a bad time so he put something in it. He told me they were to help me sleep.

I felt sleepy and we started to kiss. I felt more and more drugged and all of a sudden he started abusing me and threw his self on top of me. He said it’s all right that he had a condom. I said I don’t care, pushed him off and ran home.

A few weeks later I hadn’t had my period and found out I was pregnant. WITH TWINS!! I am now 19; my kids are now 3years old, beautiful, and healthy.

Twin Pregnancy

In 2004 Nov I conceived for the 2nd time (have a 7 year daughter), and like any other expectant, thought that it'll be a single pregnancy. In the late Dec we came to know that I was carrying twins. We were shocked to hear the news since it was just a natural pregnancy. Things were good until Feb. 2005.

I had my Amniocentesis on March 2nd 2005, which lead me to bed rest for the rest of the pregnancy. Two days after my Amino, I started to have the watery discharge, I called my doc and visited my hospital the following day that one of the babies bag ruptured. We were shattered since I was only 17 weeks through this pregnancy. I had no hope for this pregnancy since I was carrying the twins. My doc. asked me take one day at a time.

Things got worse as days passed. I started to bleed almost everyday. On two occasions I bled heavily. I thought this was it. For almost a month all these went on and we lost the hope of the ruptured membrane healing and patching. On April 19th, I was to be admitted in the hospital till the delivery so that I could be monitored more closely. Every hr. became hard to pass.

When I went for my monthly check-up with the high-risk specialist, he told us that both the babies have good amount of amniotic fluid and that none of bags showed any signs of leaking of losing fluid. We were so relieved to hear that. So I wasn’t admitted in the hospital on the 19th. My pregnancy went the same way with total bed rest.

On June 3rd when I went for the stree-test, the technician told me that I was having contractions. I was admitted in the hospital and was given turbutaline and when this didn't work I was put on the Magnesium Sulphate IV medication to relax my body muscles. It was yucky. I hated the feeling. It was horrible but the very thought that I was saving my babies, I kept going.

I was on that for 27 days and when I was 34 weeks and 1 day, I started to leak and I was asked to prepare for c-section. On July 1st 2005, I delivered two baby girls. One weighed 4 lb and 1 oz and other baby weighed 4 lb and 15 ozs. My doc. told us these were miracle babies.

They are 22 months now and I am having a great time with all my three daughters.

life at 11

I was madly in love with John D. I was 11 years old and we'd been going out for 9 months. We decided it was time to have sex again. We had all ready done it before but this time something went wrong.

After we were done we realized there was a hole in the condom. He said he didn't do it but I know he did. A few months later I found out I was having quintuplets (5 kids) at 11!!!!!!!!!!!! Well that's my story I'm 17 my kids are 6.

For people who want to have sex giving birth is very painful!!!
