I’m in my first pregnancy and I’m only 17.
I am married to the father now and it was a decision we made together. But he’s in the U.S Marines and leaving for Iraq really soon. I’m only 11 weeks pregnant and I’m going to be giving birth while he’s in Iraq. He doesn’t want to come home for the 30 days to see the baby being born just because he won’t want to go back to Iraq. But when he’s coming home, the baby will be 2 months old. I’m just really scared because he won’t be home to help me through labor and all that. And I’m totally feeling alone. My parents are excited about the baby and are definitely going to be there but it’s not the same as having your husband, The love of your life, the baby’s daddy there. =[
This is going to be really hard. =[
Anyone else going through the same thing I’m going through?
I’m 15 and 2 weeks ago found out I was 13 weeks pregnant.
My boyfriend knows but he doesn’t know what to do either! Should I have an abortion or keep it? I’m starting college in September. I have the rest of my life and my future to think about but what about the baby? It has a chance of becoming like me!
I’m really confused!
I’m 21 years old and am the mother of 2 angels.
I was forced out of one pregnancy by abortion and another by miscarriage. I talked to my mom about it because she has gone through the same thing. But she also said that she never got over what she did until she had another baby. This makes me worried that I’ll never be able to get over the guilt and frustration of losing two angels. And now, what’s worse, is that I want to get pregnant again! I have talked it over with my boyfriend but he’s far from being ready. I can’t take not being pregnant anymore. I want to be. But I don’t want to break my boyfriend’s heart or even worse – lose him. I know I should wait, but my wanting and my dreams that continuously happen every night to be pregnant grow more powerful and stronger. I just don’t want the disappointment of my parents, family, or even him. I want to be truthful, but how can I be this truthful with him about it without losing him?
I’m stuck…
Hello,
I tried to find any site possible to help me with my situation. I need total support and advice. To come across Stand Up Girl, I am certainly amazed and thankful to see a site that helps girls of any age with a situation of becoming a mother, working together and giving support to each other. It’s a wonderful idea and I really need help now more than ever.
I am 17 turning 18 next week. I should have gotten my period last Wednesday but it never showed. It’s been a week today and still nothing. I had no cramps either up until this week but two weeks ago, my nipples were extremely sensitive and still are. With my regular periods every 28 days usually, I always get cramps a week before and my lower back hurts and I’m bloated and my whole boob just aches. This made me terribly confused with my body lately because just my nipples hurt and now I’m getting slight cramps plus feeling bloated. I feel faint every once in awhile as well. My boyfriend is scared and really thinks I am. I honestly don’t know what to do. This is very unexpected…
Turning 18 for my birthday, I was going to get my license and look for a car and start school at a community college this Summer. I have no job, and neither does my boyfriend. I’m scared to disappoint my parents and not being able to come up with money as well. Not being able to care for myself, how would I care for another person? My boyfriend and I really don’t want to do abortion but it looks like we are going to have too. But we both agreed we would feel guilty and I honestly don’t know if I can do it. Adoption, I honestly can’t think of my baby being out there some where with another family and me knowing my first born is not being cared for by his or her’s real mother and father. I really would love to keep this baby. But I don’t want to be a bad mother, I don’t have the money and I don’t want to be a bad daughter either. If anyone can help me with experiences and suggestions, I really would appreciate it.
Going to the health clinic this week to take a free test.
Love,
I have an appointment with my OB on the 21st to hear my babies heartbeat for the first time!!! I am sooo excited!!
And I was wondering… Do any of y’all have/had bad dreams during pregnancy?? Because last night, I had a dream I was bleeding… a lot & thought I was having a miscarriage. I know it was just a dream… but I keep having all these crazy dreams when I NEVER had dreams before.
Help?
I recently had an abortion, in January… Just in time before year 12 started up and classmates would notice….(how convenient).
My partner and I have been together for a while, and since the abortion, I have resented him and our parents. Every time, I go to the shops, look at magazines, hear of others having babies. It’s almost as though a part of me has gone. Well, it has and that will be forever. I never wanted to have the abortion, yet my partner and his mum pressured me so much that I felt I had no other decision. He promised he’d be there whenever I was sad…. Let me tell you, he’s not… He simply sits there and goes off into another world. It is all swept under the rug. I feel so lonely and guilty…
Is this normal?? What do I do now??
