So today, I registered my daughter for Kindergarten… She is excited and can’t wait for the first day of school and I am freaking out… It seems like yesterday that I brought her home from the hospital…
I can’t imagine not having her. Her dad wanted me to get an abortion and I almost gave in…. I would have never imagined that 5 years down the road, I would be married to a wonderful man (not my daughter’s father), be a stay-at-home mom, and send my daughter off to school…. It has shown me that I cannot base my decisions on fear, what someone else wants, what I think is possible, and my circumstances….
If you are struggling today with a similar choice and you just can’t see 5 years down the road then stop, take a deep breath, and make sure that you are not seeing through eyes of fear, someone else’s selfishness, unbelief, or poor circumstances…. 5 years flies by so fast but they are full of wonderful adventures that grow you and make you stronger….
Love a Mom of a Kindergartener
Hey
I’m 3 months pregnant and I was having a hard time deciding if I should have my baby or if I should get an abortion. But now I’m 100% sure that I want to have my baby….
Anyways, like 2 weeks ago, I went to my first doctor’s appointment and I finally got to see my baby… I got so excited I almost cried haha, LOL. I was there with my boyfriend and he also wanted to cry…
Now we’re really excited and were really looking forward to the baby’s birth…. I LOVE MY BABY
Well, I fell pregnant at the age of 15… Kept this a secret from my family for at least three and a half months.
I eventually plucked up the courage to tell my mum and dad. My dad more or less disowned me and my mum helped me in small parts but kept trying to persuade me into an abortion, which I could NEVER do. So I still haven’t really forgiven her for trying to make me do that, but sadly a few weeks after, I lost my bubs… worst ever feeling…
I want to try for another baby. It feels like I’m never going to be happy until I get my little angel… My baby was due on the 20th of December 🙁 truly missed 🙁 love you boo.
Oh and I am no longer with the partner. I will add more shortly.
I am 15 and in June, I had sex with this boy. Now I feel soooo stupid because the boy I messed with wasn’t my boyfriend or nothing, and he was a senior and I was a freshman.
Not that bad, but I feel so nasty because we had sex at school in the boy’s locker room. Not only that, but it got around the school real fast, and let me not forget me and his girlfriend had classes together. So I got to look like a hoe with only 2 weeks of school left. And now I’m confused because I knew I shouldn’t have messed with me when he didn’t have a condom and he came at me with dat with I’ll pull out bull. I was gonna walk away, but when I was about to leave out the door, I heard a teacher so I was stuck in tha locker with him. So when he had found a condom, he put it on and it was wayyyy 2 little, but I let him have his way anyway. When it was almost over, I felt a big gush and then he pulled out real fast in a panic. I don’t know but I think that tha condom broke.
Now I think it’s a chance I could be pregnant, and if! I am, it’s nobody’s fault but mine. And I’ll feel really bad because I wouldn’t consider anything else but abortion because first of all, I’m only 15 and especially because I haven’t talked to him since school got out and I don’t have no way of getting in touch with him.
Please help me !!!!!!!!!!!!!
This new blog rocks! I’ll come back to share tomorrow. Need to sleep now. Just a pain to be ’round when I don’t get 9 hours.
He started using drugs heavily, and since I didn’t like doing drugs, let alone drinking, I broke it off. About a month after we broke up, I sat staring in my friend’s bathroom, looking at a pink plus sign. It was faint, so I went to the expert on pregnancy, my mother. She then went to get me another one. And there we have it, I’m pregnant.
Dear Becky —
I first found out I was pregnant after me and my boyfriend of two years, on and off, broke up for good. He started using drugs heavily, and since I didn’t like doing drugs, let alone drinking, I broke it off. About a month after we broke up, I sat staring in my friend’s bathroom, looking at a pink plus sign. It was faint, so I went to the expert on pregnancy, my mother. She then went to get me another one. And there we have it, I’m pregnant. A few weeks later, I went to the doctor’s for my first check up. And they did a sonogram. When I saw my little “lima bean” baby, I cried so much. She told me then that I was already 6 weeks and 1 day (I am now 11 weeks and 1 day). =]. I decided I was not going to tell the father. He has already told me a million times he doesn’t want a kid(he already has one, and doesn’t even see his child who is now 3), and the fact that he does drugs, drinks, and is a pathological liar, made my decision very, very easy.
My birthday is actually in 2 weeks from today (July 27th =]]]]). I’ll officially be 17 =]] .
In September, I’ll be starting my Senior year in high school, and ready to take on any of the challenges that come my way. I’m ready for whatever anyone has to say. I’m ready for anything. I’m ready for single parenthood (with the help of my wonderful amazing, and supportive family and friends). My friend asked me the other day if my life goals have changed at all, like am I going to go to college, do what I’ve always wanted to do (forensic stuff for homicide/suicide cases), and the answer is no and yea. My goals in life haven’t changed, at all. They’ve just become more. I’m going to college. and I’m going to do the job I’ve always wanted to do!. My parents have gave me an amazing life, now I just hope I can do the same for my baby =]]
