So here goes nothing….. I am 17 years old. I will be 18 Jan. 5! I recently had a beautiful baby boy who amazes me everyday at the things he can do at only 4 months old!
It all started back on Oct. 14. I was 16 and I thought I had met an amazing guy who was 18 at the time. I took him to my homecoming and on Oct. 14, my son was conceived. And I was only 16! I told ma family right away and my dad wouldn’t talk to me for the longest time and at first, tried to ground me like it was all going to go away! My mom and stepmom were understanding and supported me in whatever decision I made. I sat down with the baby’s daddy and we talked of all our options and we both agreed. We laid down and made the mistake so now we are going to take responsibility for our actions and so we did. We decided that no matter what anyone said, we would keep our baby.
I found out I was having a boy when i was 4 1/2 to 5 months prego and oh boy! My dad and boyfriend were so excited! They started going on and on about what he was going to be when he gets older and he wasn’t even here yet! Well don’t you know it, I was due 7/7 but my lil booger was ready to meet the world and the world to meet him. He came 2 weeks early on June 21! I did it all by myself. I had no medicine, no nothing. All I had was the support on my grandma, my lil sister, and my step mom…. And at 2:15 am, my lil man came out with 2 pushes, and my grandmother cut his the cord! My boyfriend was out of town and my grandma didn’t know how to use a cell phone so she was trying to call him and my mom while I was laboring! I only labored for 1 hour and 45 minutes! It was the worst pain ever but man, was it worth it! My boyfriend and ma mom got there after I had him! And as soon as my boyfriend saw him, he cried. It was the most amazing thing ever! I didn’t get no pain meds till afterwards and I’m glad I didn’t cause I would have been tired afterwards. I mean I was tired but I wasn’t all drugged out and tired!
This was a life changing experience for me! For the 1st few weeks, it didn’t even feel like he was mine but he was! I wake up every morning at 5:30 to get ma lil booger ready and then my dad takes him to my grandmother’s, who watches him while I go to school. Then I go home and get my lil booger and no matter how bad of a day I’ve had, when he smiles at me, I cant help but to smile back and laugh!
My lil boogers name is HAYDEN JOHN FOXX!
