Hello everyone, I came across Stand Up Girl like many of you did, trying to find an answer to this problem that had crept up unexpectedly. I was 5 weeks pregnant when I found out, but now with the help of Stand Up Girl & the wonderful, strong women who have...

So you all know my son, who is 10 months old now! (I was 14 when I gave birth and now I'm nearly 16). As you guys know, I went to school up until the day before my induction (emergency induction). Yes, it was hard with the big belly and all but, you gotta do...

I have just found out that I am pregnant. The father and I broke up a few days ago and he keeps telling me to abort this child. I don't know how to deal with all of this. We were a very happy couple and have been together for some time. He just moved a few hours...

I know I shouldn't want you, I know I shouldn't, but I can't help it. Every time I close my eyes, say a prayer, watch a sad movie...You cross my mind. I want nothing more than to deny it with my every breath. I long for you to be safe, to think of me, to remember...

My son's father has just decided to take responsibility for our son. I have mixed feelings about it. I just think that not having him in our life was easier for me to handle because I didn't have to worry about losing my son. I am frustrated, scared, and confused....

Am I too nice to the men in my life who have done me wrong? I never shout or act out my anger, never try and seek revenge even though it's deserved. The way things have been going through many of my past and present relationships, it's as though I am not able to...

I'm completely confused. My boyfriend and I have a beautiful 6-month-old daughter. I'm 19 & my boyfriend of two years is 22. We have our own place & car. He works two jobs while I look for work. We're both recent college graduates. I am currently one month...

I'm not sure how to start off. I guess I'll start like this... Dec 31 was a day that changed my life forever. I was 13 and I got pregnant. When my family found out, they flipped out. They all wanted me to get an abortion, including the father of my child. His mom...

My son's due date was 8th August, but obviously, he came early. So I shouldn't be worried about his due date? I am probably making a big deal over nothing, but this day means a lot to me. He should either be on his way and almost here or a few days old. But...

I'll be 39 weeks pregnant this Friday. I and everyone in my family thought that my baby was going to be premature. I was just so big and well, I looked more like a 9-month pregnant woman than a 7-month pregnant woman. I've gained 70 pounds since I got pregnant. I'm...

Heya people. I'm Shreya and I'm from India. I'm 15 years. Well, it's been one and a half year. I'm dating a guy, and we both love each other too much. We even have had sex three times . But the problem starts from there. It was okay till this May. I was getting my...

Ok, I have a little vent to get out here, please bear with me! I have seen and heard many people give arguments in regards to teen pregnancy....Some have been AGAINST people like us at Standupgirl.com....They ask and question WHY we encourage young girls to follow...

To start off, I'm 17 and have been with my boyfriend for 3 years. My last period was June 14th. We have had unprotected sex a lot and I'm not on the pill anymore. I've been getting nauseous, my boobs are swollen, and I can't touch them! I've been peeing a lot, am...

I'm so excited! I'll be 37 weeks pregnant tomorrow. I can't believe of how the time has passed. I have been considering lots of things to provoke my labor. I've considered castor oil or just going out for a long walk. My family is visiting Mexico this August. I'd...

I feel so foolish, even though I already know what I feel, I shouldn't be OK. He gave me up. As a matter of fact, he gave "us" up because he couldn't handle my choice of keeping her, our child. I love him again and again. I can't explain why. I spend so many days...

Hi all! Well, I am new to this site, with postings. I found SUG about 2 and a half years ago. I was still in school and thought I might be pregnant. Well, I would have loved it, but I was not, and now I am trying for it. So to get to what I really want to say......

So today is a whole month since we brought our son home (8th July today), and it's coming up onto the 13th of July, which means he will be 3 months old. And a few people have asked me about my story, so I think it's coming up about the right time to explain. I...

Well, I'm 19 years old and I have a one-year-old son. I start college in September and I'm thinking about having another baby. I know everybody is gonna say it will be too hard, but that just makes me wanna prove them wrong even more. My boyfriend doesn't want...

At least that's what they call step one. It's kind of where I am right now. I've met a lot of girls who struggle with depression, self-harm, and eating disorders. But I never wanted to think I had that same problem. It takes a lot to speak up about what's going on...

Hi. Good day! Me and my boyfriend are living together for 1 year. And we want to have a baby. We even think of names for our future babies. But it's hard for me to get pregnant, is it possible because of my miscarriage last year?

After 8 long weeks in the hospital, our son has finally settled in at home with us, with his family, where he belongs.  It's been a long couple of days since he's been home. Restless nights, stressful days. But seeing my son's smile at home is fantastic. Me and my...
