Maykenize Carson Faith is my 3rd Pregnancy. I’m 21 weeks and 2 days pregnant… She was a gift from my late daughter Carson Marie Dawn who passed away on September 24, 2010.
Here is the meaning of her name… Maykenize was the name I fell in love with when I was 10 years old… Carson is in memory of my late daughter and Faith is since I was given faith that I was able to carry and give birth to another baby after my accident…. My boyfriend and I found a perfect place we move in on April 10th, a couple of weeks before I have my baby girl… She is due July 27th, but I’m having her on June 27th, a month early by c-section due to damage still, and wouldn’t be able to have her natural way…
I’m turning 16 and I’m pregnant with triplets.
My parents are very supportive but my babies’ dad isn’t. I live in Australia and my pregnancy is becoming complicated. I am showing a lot already and my blood pressure is too high. I am meant to stay in bed for the rest of the pregnancy but I’m stressing out. How am I going to raise three babies as a single mum?
I really need some advice. Please help me.
What teenager ever thinks she will be a mother by the age of 17, let alone a mother of three by the time she is 21?
I bet a lot of them don’t. I know I didn’t. At the age of 16, I became just another teenage statistic, a statistical momma. That was in 2001. Back then there were no TV shows of teenage pregnancy glamorizing the epidemic or even TV movies like “The Pregnancy Pact” to scare the thoughts of having babies out of young girls’ minds. Those things didn’t come along until I was 22 and two kids later. If I had seen those shows back then, I would have definable given sex a third and fourth thought.
I was young and naive. You never think it would happen to you. I am so tired of seeing these girls from 16 and Pregnant being thrown all around in the media and being paid major cash to be a statistical momma. I work hard to take care of the babies I brought into this world and trust me when I say I have sacrificed everything for them. Is it fair that so many teenage parents are struggling and they get to be put on a pedestal for going through the “baby momma” and “baby daddy” drama? I don’t think so. Why not try to help these teenage parents be all they can be and be role models for their children? Give them some counseling and some skills training, instead of teaching them to pose for a magazine cover.
These are just some thoughts. We all know what sells. So can you expect anything more?
Father God,
Today I humbly come to Your giving thanks for Your goodness and faithfulness in my life. I trust that Your plan for me is good, and I choose to turn the page on the past by choosing Your ways. I forgive and release those who have wronged me so I can move forward in the next chapter You have for me.
In Jesus’ Name. Amen.

When I was 15, I met this guy.
6 months into our relationship, I found out I was pregnant with my first child. A little girl. We wanted her to be named, Lashay Aubrea. I didn’t know anything about being a mother, but good thing I had supportive parents to help me. I moved out of my parent’s house when I was 9 months along, and 2 days before my birthday. I had turned 16 and I went to get me a learner’s permit and while I was taking the written part of the test, my water broke. I Had Lashay on June 5th. She was 7 pounds 8 ounces, 21 inches long. 4 months after, I guess I was still fertile because I found out I was pregnant again, with another girl. We named her Quanashia Anae. She was born July 5th ( Both on the 5th of a month 🙂 ). I raised my 2 little princesses from day to day. Lashay is now 2, 3 in June. Quanashia is now 1, 2 in July. I found out I was pregnant with another baby on May 5th ( 5 is my lucky number) and I had my Adorable baby girl Allyson Emio on February 1(5). I am 18 now, soon to be 19, and I graduated with honors on May 20. I have 3 adorable little girls and they are my life. I wouldn’t trade it for the world.
<3 Lashay
<3 Nashia
<3 Allyson
You guys are the reason I breathe. Mommy love’s you all.
My day today went pretty much the same…but since this is my first blog entry I will tell you how a normal day goes.
Everyday (school days), I wake up at 5 am and get in the shower. I get dressed and go back to sleep in till 6:30am. By then, my hair is dry and I walk to the bathroom to do my make-up and hair. After that, I get my bag for school ready and sit in the living room till the bus comes.
While I’m at school, I am greeted by lots of “Hi Jenni’s”. No, I am not one of the “popular people” but at my school…. It’s not really like that… Most of us all get along… The only cliques really are all of us, and then geeks, and then wanna-be cool people.
When I get home, I usually eat something, go to the bathroom, and do my homework. After that, I stay out till dark (in summer I can stay out till 1 am :))
Anyways…I have to wrap this up…but the next time I write in my blog, I will inform you about my day (it’s usually full of funny stuff and weird/stupid stuff :)) Haha.
