I recently went to this place called Alternatives. I only got to speak to one lady but she was extremely nice and understanding. Not like people that judge you by your age. They had a whole room full of stuff to help out teen moms like maternity clothes, baby...

I have thought for a while before deciding to write this. I'm normally a fairly private person. I need some help/advice because I'm going through a hard time at the moment. I had my second baby girl (Alyssa) in July this year. 5 weeks and 2 days later, I made my...

Well, I found out that I am having a baby girl... I really wanted a baby boy but I will settle for a little girl... Mommy's princess is what I will call her... I was worried today because she is usually a busybody but she didn't move all day today. Even after I...

Okay well, I have found out that I am pregnant. My boyfriend says that he'll be there and he will get a job because I can't, at least not until after the baby is born. Obviously, because of the last sentence, I have decided to keep the baby. My mother says that if...

I tried getting pregnant at 14 but stopped when I broke up with my boyfriend. From then on, I had a few scares. I went through a hard time but got back on my feet. I never did start trying again but I am now pregnant. My 16th birthday was 8-27. I'm not ashamed at...

I've just been sitting here, going through all these over the last two days and it makes me feel so much better to know I'm not alone. I'm 15, almost 16, and am pregnant. I was two weeks late so I took a test and now I'm pregnant. I've made up my mind, and abortion...

I am the baby of the family and the only girl. I had my first boyfriend at 12, nothing serious, but I did learn how to kiss. My brothers were very protective of me so my family thought I was safe. I've always been a pretty good girl, not getting into much trouble....

25 June 2008... I remember every single second as if it happened 5 minutes ago... It was a Monday morning, the day I received my first ever full paycheck as I started working in May... My boyfriend walked me to the atm to draw out R2000... My appointment was at...

Growing up, I was one of those hardcore feminist girls...believed that a woman had the right to do whatever she pleased... My life and the circumstances, I grew up in made me tough... What I called a strong, independent woman... In high school, my girlfriends had...

The day I 'felt' I was pregnant was the happiest day of my life! I knew I was pregnant way before I took a test or before I missed my period.  I felt my body changing and I loved it, even the morning sickness!  And it was bad, for the short time I was pregnant.  I...

I just turned 19 when I found out I was going to be a mommy. It was a month after my birthday. I found out on Jan 06, everything changed after I saw the test. I didn't know what to do. I don't have a mom to help me through my pregnancy. So I guess, so what, I am...

I am 20 years old. I am still in college and live with my parents... My boyfriend and I have been together for 2 years now and I just found out that I was pregnant about a month ago. I am 8 weeks pregnant. When I found out, I was happy and scared at the same time....

I want to thank all of you, as you are each special in your own way, and so brave. We initially wanted to adopt, (and still do) as we knew we may be able to help a woman give her baby a loving home. We have waited for what seems like years, but it's not even been a...

JUST KEEP HOLDIN ON I CAN TELL YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT I AM SAYIN' TO YOU AND YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE GOIN THROUGH. WHY AM I SO FAR AWAY? WHY DID I RUN AND LEAVE YOU THIS WAY?   THINGS JUST KEPT GOIN WRONG >AND THE PAIN KEPT GOIN ON I COULD NOT STAND...

Dear Baby Bear, I know you cannot understand the words I am writing or why I am so far away.  I can only hope that someday you will.  I have been trying so hard to get better.  Then we can be together again.  I remember the day you were born and holding you.  It...

Okay well, I'm 15 and I think I am pregnant, with a boy to be specific. I don't know but it's just a feeling that I have. Anyways, back to my point, my boyfriend thinks that I should get rid of it due to timing or so he says but I want to keep the baby if I am. I,...

It's been a while since I last wrote and my life has gotten more complicated. My baby is doing good but I don't know what to do about his dad. I have been told that he's going to have another baby and I'm concern about how that might affect us. I need some advice...

I was pregnant and had an abortion 3 weeks ago. My boyfriend told me to have one. He thought it would be the best thing to do. I wanted to keep it but he said no. He promised we'd be together and he wouldn't leave me. I know he loves me because he did a lot for me....

I've sat back and watched this all happen for long enough now. I'm waking myself up and shaking off the dust. My new attitude: I can handle anything that throws itself in my path. Bring it on. After all the torment, deceit, guilt, and stress, I'm picking myself up...
