Hi, I’m a first-time mom so I’m extremely scared. I found out I was pregnant when I was only 17. Now I am 18 years old and I am 4 months pregnant.

I haven’t told my parents nor my boyfriend yet. Like I said, I kinda freaked out about the whole thing. I don’t know how my boyfriend will take it. He already acts weird enough now. He has very bad mood swings. It’s crazy, but somehow, my unborn baby makes me forget about everything but her. She’s the only thing I can think of most of the time. My whole story started a while back. I had been through so much drama where I was living that I decided to make a change in my life and moved to Atlanta to attend school. I then met who I thought was the man of my dreams. . . I guess I was wrong again about men. (Not all but most). But he was just as cruel and mean as the rest I dealt with in my past, just in a more subtle way.

That was all yesterday, but today is a new day and I am now a mother to be, single and free as an bird. I am sad that I will have to go through parenthood all by myself but I know me and my unborn child will be just fine because I have faith that I can do anything that I put just my mind to, but I am not only putting my mind to it but my heart so I am sure we’ll make it.

So to everyone who reads this blog, pray for me and my unborn child and thank you in advance. . .
