So I was seventeen when I found out I was pregnant, for some, that can be the most exciting news, but more than likely if you’re young and the pregnancy is DEFINITELY unplanned, then that sort of news can crush you.
I had big plans for myself. I was a senior at a Christian high school, I was gonna go to college… There was no way I could have a baby. At first, I thought maybe I was freaking out and nothing was wrong. I decided to go to a certain pregnancy outreach center, and they informed me that I was, in fact, very much pregnant. I remember telling the woman that gave me the news I couldn’t have a baby, I was too young, that the only choice for me was abortion. The counselor informed me of horrible facts and TRUTHS about abortion and its effects.
At the time, I didn’t believe her. The only choice in my head was abortion. In the state I live in, you have to be 18 to have this procedure done, or a parents consent. Well, not wanting to tell my parents was one of the biggest reasons for wanting the abortion… So I went to YET another clinic (which is in no way an outreach center). They told me I could go to court and have a judiciary bypass, where you appear in court and prove to the judge you are old enough to make this decision without your parents’ consent. I look back on this now and can not even believe that someone has made this legal. There are so many things that can go wrong! At this time, I think I was probably a month along and they told me I had to do it before my third month.
Deep down, I know that I really don’t want abortion but keep telling myself that its the right thing to do. I finally scheduled the appointment. The night before I was to have procedure, I couldn’t sleep. I found myself praying, and I mean crying out to God for some sort of help. The car ride to the clinic was by far the longest trip I had ever made. Walking into the clinic, I felt like dirt. Actually, I cant explain the feeling. I hope I never feel that way again. I filled out my paper work, paid the money that was due, and sat in the waiting room. A nurse called my name. We got back in a room and she told me she had to do an ultrasound to see if everything would be okay for the procedure, and I will NEVER forget what happened next. The woman looked at the screen and for less then a second, I saw her smile. I thought how can this woman smile at a child she is about to kill? I got up and told her I couldn’t do it.
I left that place knowing what I was about to go through would be the hardest thing I had ever faced. And it was very hard and scary, but on May 5th, I gave birth to a BEAUTIFUL daughter…. I thank God everytime I see her running to me that He gave me the courage to be strong 🙂
I love being a mommy 2 my beautiful baby boy.
I do not regret the decision 2 have him one bit. I’m 16 years old, turning 17, this year and I recently had my son on February 8 at 9:26 a.m. weighing in at 6 pounds, 10 ounces, and 18 inches long. My son’s father, the love of my life, is such a good dad and is so happy our baby is here.
The sad part is they grow up so fast my sons getting bigger everyday. 🙁
Okay so, today I went to the clinic at my school and I found out I am actually pregnant and the doctor said I’m 2 months already…
My story…….. When I was 13, I fell in love for the first time with a guy! I loved that kid to death…
I lost my virginity 2 weeks before my 15th birthday and you know how people say you can’t get prego the first time. Well, you can… I found out 3 weeks later I was going to be a mommy. I was really scared and didn’t know what to do. I told him and he was just as worried as I was. We told our parents. My mom was upset. She cried for days but she said she would back me up with whatever I chose to do. He got me a promise ring for our 1 year together and I thought everything was goin to get better,(I was keeping the baby).
After a while, I was really happy. I couldn’t wait to be a mommy. but I lost the baby a month and a half in. I lost the baby. The doctor said my body wasn’t healthy enough to have a baby. I was devastated and so was he. So we tried again and again and finally 7 months later, I got prego again, and sadly, I lost the baby 2 months in the sec time. I was destroyed. He was right by my side the whole time. At 2 years, he asked me to marry him and I said yes. He gave me a beautiful ring and every thing. Did I forget to say his parents hated me, and me and him lived next to each other. So I was the girl next door….. I had to move. We moved 45 min away from each other and his parents cut us off. They took his car keys, cell phone, computer, every thing so he couldn’t talk to me. And I found out after 2 years and 7 months of being together, he cheated on me. It broke my heart into pieces. =[ But I was lucky that my new boyfriend came along and picked up the pieces. We have been together for 6 months and i really do love this boy. =]
There is more to my story if you would like to know about things then please let me know.
I have decided that I am going to keep my baby!!
I am so completely excited!!! I am still nervous, but I look forward to this pregnancy. I even got up the nerve to tell my parents, and they took it in a way that I was completely surprised!! I went over there thinking that they were going to freak and yell, and tell me what a horrible decision I have made, and they hugged me and congratulated me!! It was so weird! There have not been many moments where I have been congratulated by my parents, so it is really weird. My little sister freaked, she was so excited!! She went to Walmart last night and bought bottles and toys!!!
I am so friggin happy!!
This is my story
I just had a baby girl on January 6th.
8 pounds, 16 ounces, 21 inches long
I have an amazing baby girl. I couldn’t ask for anything better… When I found out I was pregnant, I didn’t know what to do… I wasn’t with my boyfriend at the time. We had broken up in April of last year… and I found out I was pregnant at the end of June. My friend made me take a test but I didn’t want to… It took no time to tell the results… The next day, I went to another friend’s house and we went out to dinner to take my mind off things… Well, that just made matters worse… I ended up seeing his parents, who I haven’t talked to in 3 months… Same with my ex at the time… Well, my friends said that was a sign and I needed to tell him… So we called and he came right over… We talked and decided to keep her…
Well, the parents took it the other way… We fought about it. I got ignored but in the end, it was the best thing even though me and her father fight all the time we stay together for her… I couldn’t even imagine not having her… and anyone who thinks they have to because of their parents, you’re wrong… All you have to do is tell the person that’s about to perform it and they by law can’t perform it… I made sure because I wanted to fight for her till the bitter end…
I believe that if you’re going to have sex without anything, then you need to take up responsibility!
