im 14 n pregnant
I'm 14 years old. And me and my boyfriend have been together for a year and a half. He's my longest relationship and also my first. I really love him and I know that he loves me too. He's 17 and even though he's older, he's not with me for reasons most people would...
He just doesn’t understand
So I've been with my boyfriend for a lil over 2 years, and lately, I dunno....... I feel like no matter how much I try, he just doesn't or won't get me. We had an abortion 2 years ago and honestly, it's been downhill since then. He's tried to make it work but...
What Am I Supposed To Do?
Okay, so here is my story. I'm 26 years old and I have a beautiful daughter. She is 8 years old. I broke up with her father 2 years old when he went to jail for the 2nd time in her life. In April, I was able to finally stand alone. I got my own apartment and I...
second Chance???
Well last Wednesday, I finished school, at least high school for now. I was stoked and got to see a ex the next day at the airport. Needless to say, he's changed for the best and really making me think. It's been almost 2 years that we have been best of friends or...
dropping the bom on my boyfriend….
Hey! Last night, I dropped the bomb on my boyfriend on how I wanted to get engaged soon. Yea, I know I am 15 but I planned my life out earlier than most people. Like I love him and I know I do... I am involved in Standupgirl.com. There are people there that...
Juno’s Story
The movie Juno is a StandUpGirl story... one that is humorous and smart though less moving than Bella. Roger Ebert said; "...It is so very rare to sit with an audience ... in step with every turn and surprise of an uncommonly intelligent screenplay. It is so rare...
The Ghost of Christmas Past
What does it mean to be black, young, and pregnant? How much more out of control can life get. Nick Cannon's rap poem to his mother in 1979 (as the "ghost of future life") and today (as the "ghost of present life") is heartfelt and moving. Particularly...
xmas blues maybe?
I don't know what is wrong with me lately. I just don't feel myself. I just don't feel happy. I don't have it bad though. I have a lil girl and I love being a mammy and I have my partner and I love him and I am hoping he loves me. I think he does, just I'm not...
Why Iam “Lonely_girl”
My story is almost the same as everyone else on here. I had an abortion when I was 15, and scared with no choice. I lived with my mother, no father. My father left when I was 4, so I really had nowhere to go. My mother gave me the option of getting an abortion or...
happy but really scared
OK, so me and my Boyfriend tried for a baby this month. Now, my period was due yesterday. Me and my friend were joking about me being pregnant so I decided to take one of the old pregnancy tests I had in the closet. It was positive. I couldn't believe it so I went...
I heard this one day, but this is how I feel everyday of my life since it happened…HOW ABOUT U????
"Not a day goes by that I don't think of my lost child. And to think it was my decision to lose my child. It haunts me everyday. When I wake up in the morning, sometimes I don't even want to get out of bed. I WISH I WOULD SOMETIMES, just to be with my baby. I know...
My story so far..
Well...I guess I should probably start from the beginning, so here goes... About three months ago, I found out I was pregnant after taking a spare pregnancy test I had for ages...To be totally truthful, I was just cleaning my room and came across it so I decided to...
trying to get pregnant
Hi, I'm trying to get pregnant. I had a stabbing pain in my lower left side just below my hip. Is this ovulation? ( Dec 9) I've been having mild cramps on my left side and my abdomen on Dec 13,14,15. Could this be Implantation? I had 2 kids and I never had these...
Just got here
Hi! Well, I just found this site and thought it was amazing, to find so many girls with similar life struggles. It's nice to chat with someone that can relate to you and know how you fee. I'm not very good at writing so I hope I can express myself in the right words
Brand New Concept
As you probably gathered from my other (slightly poetic and aloof) blog entry: my cousin aborted the baby. She has said (or so I heard) that it was her decision so what can I say really? I tried. At least it's not for the sake of some loser idiot boy (at least I...
They rise and they fall…
If you look at it in terms of living through it, in terms of living through it on the edge and under pressure, 9 months is a very long time... Just when I thought one of my nearest and dearest had made the conscious decision to be a fantastic Stand-up girl and be...
2 years ago
I have a little girl who is 2 years old named Jaymie Lee. I became pregnant at the young age of 15 and let me tell you, things did not go to smoothly for the 9 months of pregnancy. When I found out, my mom found this website for me. I wrote an email to Becky and...
