early pregnancy

before i even missed my first period when i was pregnant with my son i began to feel really tired and was feeling waves of nausea. i also was getting light headed alot. when my period was late i knew i was pregnant because i was never late before. i must have taken at least 10 or more home pregnancy tests which all came back negative. i also had the worst cramps like my period was going to start at any moment. i couldnt take not knowing anymore so i went to the er and they took a blood test which confirmed my pregnancy. they said the cramping was do to my uterus stretching. for 2 more months home pregnacy tests still showed negative. my second child 3 years later the home pregnancy tests showed positive the day after i missed my period. so you never know. go with your gut feeling

Too Young for Mommy

Me and my boyfriend had been dating for 3 years. We told each other we loved each other pretty much every day, and at the time, we though that sex was just a way to show our love to each other. But we soon learned that it would be much more than that....
The time when I missed it, i was really nervous. I kept telling myself that it was just me and that I couldn't be...pregnant. The word kept running over and over in my mind as I bought the pregnancy test, as I took it, and especially as I saw the result. That moment, when the pink plus sign showed up, I knew automatically that my life was changed forever.
It was so hard to know that I was so young, and had a living being growing inside of me. A being that I was responsible for, a being that would call ME mommy!! It scared me knowing all of this. I didn't tell ANYONE about my bun in the oven for a while, until I couldn't keep it a secret anymore. People started noticing my body and my bigger boobs. I confessed to my boyfriend, my friends, and ultimately...my parents. My boyfriend was upset that I hadn't told him sooner, but told me that he would stick with me through all of this, my friends were panicking just at the though that I had sex. I had always been the good girl, the straight A student, the one who never did anything bad, but not anymore. And then there was my parents, who were not so thrilled that I was young and...pregnant. They were shocked and couldn't believe that they're little girl was having a baby. Eventually, they accepted the fact that they were soon-to-be grandparents and helped me through all of this. I believe that I was really lucky to have a boyfriend as great as mine. Most of you teenagers reading this are saying "Oh yeah! If my boyfriend got me pregnant he would be there for me." But that doesn't always happen. Most of those to-be fathers deny that they ever did the girl and just fade away to someone that your child doesn't even know, just has pictures of. Through my high school years, I was stared at as I walked down the halls, rumors went around non-stop and friends of mine drifted away, thinking of me as a bad influence. With the help of my boyfriend and my parents I was able to get through the roughest year of my life.
I am now 19 years old and have a 3 year old baby girl. I love her with all of my heart, but I think her life would be so much better if I was able to spend more time with her. Now, if my friends want to go out to see a new movie, I either have to think about making dinner for my baby, or finding a last minute babysitter. Me and my boyfriend are still together and he is definitely an active part in my baby's life. We intend to be married someday as soon as our lives are settled. We both want to finish up high school and get at least half way through college before finally settling down.
Teens, for those of you who are pregnant, tell your parents right away. It may not be the easiest thing to do, and trust me I know, but they love you and will be willing to help you in any way they can. And for those of you who aren't pregnant, be very thoughtful about what you want to do. If you and your partner are thinking about having sex, think about the consequences of what may end up happening. Some of you think you are fully ready to raise a baby, but you really aren't. There are so many things that you don't know about that you aren't ready for. Having children is wonderful! But have them when you're older, and your love is ready to have a baby with you. Have your life settled before you start a family. To you teens who are having sex, be sure that you're protected. Be careful and good luck!

why is it so difficult

I wonder why is it so hard to get pregnant? You would think by you doing everything you suppose to and being relaxed it will happen. I find myself thinking about it and when I do I get so upset and cry. I have two kids not with my husband and when I finally did get pregnant which I didn't know I lost it. I was twenty weeks was I mad Yes was I hurt Yes did I have the slighest clue I was pregnant NO why because my periods were irregular. Now I'm taking clomid for the third time and been on metfromin since the beginning of the year. I hope some point in my life I do end up pregnant with a healthy baby am I'm going to let this get the best of me NO its frustrated and I can't keep beating myself up wondering when or if its going to happen again. Why when your trying to get pregnant everyone around you is pregnant? That is so crazy I found out a person I work with is expecting when she told me I wanted to die. I was so angry and then three more people announced their pregnancy. Feeling jealous and upset is just me being real. It's ok to feel this way but at the same time I want to feel happy and excited like it finally happen I'm having a baby. What I'm saying is don't give up and don't let people tell you your not suppose to feel sad, hurt, or jealous when you find out other people are expecting.
