About a week and a half ago, I found out I was pregnant.
Since then, I have changed and rechanged my mind on what to do,
Besides the fact I just got out of a course that can get me killer jobs using forklifts, working in confined spaces, heights over 10ft, chemicals, and a bunch of other stuff, I just got kicked out of actual school, being as it was already a continuing ed school. I don’t exactly have many more options, so now I’m a pregnant high school dropout who is pregnant … life is grand, ain’t it? Anyways, just to throw it out there… I am 99.9% sure it is not my boyfriend’s kid…
So? What should I do? Move away and keep it, go back to school in a new town and get a part-time job and save every penny, or stay in my town … tell my father, have him flip a lid, and probably have know where to live or move in with my friends? I’m so confused. I have no idea what to do? Someone talk, please?
Hi everybody, I’m 17 years old.
I was 16 when I found out I was pregnant and me and my bf wasn’t together. He was with another girl but now we’re back together. I’m having a baby girl. Her name’s going to be Ebony-lee. I go in on August the 4th I think.
That’s all I need 2 say for now ok bye.
I turned 17 at the beginning of this month (April 4th) as I had missed a period. I took 2 pregnancy tests last Friday which were both positive.
I was extremely shocked and felt stupid for getting myself into this situation. I have only been with my boyfriend for 7 months and he has said he will stand by me through whatever decision I make. I told my mother and she has been really supportive. After seeing a doctor to confirm my pregnancy, I have been to an emergency pregnancy clinic and spoke to a counselor, who has talked to me about my options. I don’t know what to do as I have always been against abortions, but understand why people would have them and would never condemn anyone for having an abortion. However, being adopted myself, I just think I couldn’t abort my baby as I could have been aborted myself. But I have only been with my boyfriend for 7 months and I love him very much, but I’m scared if we were to keep the baby that it would put pressure on our relationship and split us up, this is the last thing I want. I have spoken to him and he said his feelings would never change towards me and he would put me and our baby first. But I still worry as I have only been with him so little time and a baby is for the rest of our lives.
I have not told my father yet and I don’t think I will unless I decide to keep the baby as I know he will be extremely angry at first, but I know both my parents would support me 100% if I was too keep the baby.
But I just have so many things going on in my head and I really don’t know what to do. I know I have to make this decision myself, which makes it harder.
I had just got back from a trip from Vegas. I went for my birthday, to see my Godmother. I turned 17.
The trip was long and hot, and more, so I was nauseated the whole while. Which was new for me because I never get sick in the stomach. When I went to school that Monday, very one began to notice changes, besides the nausea. I was sleeping and wasn’t my full energetic self. And one of my teachers had asked if everything was OK. I told him what I was feeling and asked if I might be pregnant. Then it was like o crap.. I called one of my cousins and she took me to the doctor’s. The results were in but because I was a minor, they wanted me to come in and get the results and for that, I needed an appt. It was set for November 18. In the whole weekend that I was waiting for the test results, my emotions were up and down. What if I was? What am I going to do? Or I am not? I am just making myself feel this way?
Nov 18 came around and I sat in the chair alone, thinking he is just going to tell me its negative and it will all be ok. I’ll take some std test and it will all be fine. Everything seemed worse because I was alone. Turned out I was pregnant… I cried almost instantly, the feeling is unexplainable. I talked to a social worker about the different options that were available to me. I remember walking out and thinkin o shit, this is really happening, this is for real!! I called my aunt and of course the baby’s father. Of course, he didn’t answer. When I got to my aunt’s house, she gave me a piece of her mind. I was still in shock about the situation. I knew I had to tell my dad and the sooner the better. But first, I had to talk to the baby’s dad.
I finally got him to answer, and the first thing that came out of his mouth when I told him the test came out positive was well, let’s get an abortion. I was so mad. I told him I couldn’t do that, I couldn’t live with that forever. He told me was going to be there for me and the baby. My dad finally got there, and we took a walk and that’s were I told him I was pregnant. He told me it was time for me to get ready to be a parent and step up and do the things I am going to do. He would support me but not do anything for me. I knew that but regardless I was still in so much shock. I didn’t know what to think.
All I knew was I am 17 and pregnant…Damn……
Last night, I started bleeding. It happened again today and there has been a lot of tissue in the blood. I’ve been getting random pains and cramping these past few days… Is this all normal?? I’m really worried. The blood is a dark red and other times, it’s a pretty bright red.
What should I do?
Hi to all the young moms out there who have a two year that just drives you totally insane and you feel as if you can pull all your hair out
I know what you are going through. My son is at this stage and I sometimes feel as if I can shout at him and just force him to listen. But after one of our fights, I realized that shouting at him will just make it worse, so now I am trying reverse psychology. It’s hard but it looks like it works.
Hold thumbs girls, I am giving myself a week before a note down all the changes in his behavior
I’ll keep you all posted.
