UNEXPECTED
I am so happy to say that I am keeping the baby that I am now carrying. It was unexpected, but so worth it!!
15 weeks
At the moment, I am 15 weeks along, I think, because I got pretty confused between what the calculator on this site was telling me and what the doctor says, but I think I should probably just stick with what the doctor says. I was just there like “I’m not that far along” and he kept on saying, “I really think you are”. We had a small little argument about it before I just decided to be quiet.
I’m starting to show, in a big way. There’s not just a small bump, it’s pretty sizable. I can cup my stomach in my hands and I don’t quite know how it crept up on me. I was sitting with one of my friends today and she said “[Yikes], I don’t mean to offend you, but you look really pregnant”. I just had to tell her, straight out with it, and she said she’d been noticing things for a while now.
Despite the fact I’ve been able to contain my excitement long enough not to buy baby clothes, my mum hasn’t. She got them these two onesies with ‘Home Grown’ written on the front, they’re newborn size, and I just keep looking at the little arm and leg holes wondering how is it possible for someone to be that small.
My boyfriend and I are still together, which surprises me. We’d only been in a relationship for about six or so months before this and I thought he’d run for the hills. But even though we’re together, it still feels as if he doesn’t want this. He’s not excited, at all. In fact, the only thing that really excites him is the medical side of having twins. He’s a third-year med student, two years older than me, and at the scan, he kept on quizzing the doctor about the physical process between identical twins, instead of looking at the screen, instead of looking at our children. It just upsets me. I’m so excited for these babies now, even though I’m still terrified, and I don’t understand why he isn’t excited, or just doesn’t care. It was amazing at the scan, for me anyway.
He says he wants to do this with me, but is he really serious? We’re moving in together in the Summer, and I don’t want to be in a position where I’m relying on him and then he just decides to run off. I’d rather become independent now.
my bundle of joy
a few months ago my boyfriend broke up. we didn’t talk to each other for days. he started being friends with all my closest friends knowing that it would destroy me inside, but unfortunately for him the little “stunt” he tried to pull didn’t work, or atleast i’m trying convince myself that it didn’t get to me that much, not really sure about my emotions at that time because i was hurt and yet angry at him and everyone that was close to him. we were planning a family together and even got engaged for 8 months, but i broke off the engagement when i found out that he was playing “daddy” on his other girl friend’s son.
on march the 26th, my friend and i decided to go out for some drinks- but when we got to the resturant, i just felt like having a mango juice. but after a few sips i started throwing up. i didn’t understand what was going on because i loved mango juice and iv never thrown up after drinkin it. i decided to go back to my flat because i was miserable and disgusted because my ex boyfriend-Fiance was also there.
the next day, i went to the chemist and bought a pregnancy test and it tested positive. i thought maybe it was just a mistake. i bought another one and it also test positive and that’s when i realized my life has changed! I WAS PREGNANT!!!
my friend told my ex boyfriend and he told me to abort the baby because he couldn’t afford to have a kid with a b**** like me.
that really broke my heart and i wanted to get an abortion asap but i couldn’t. i just couldn’t kill an innocent soul just to please someone who probably doesn’t even care about me. besides that, i am a christian.
out of all the bad things that i went through in my previous relationship, atleast i got something good out of it. some thing that makes me smile and something that is definately worth living for, MY BUNDLE OF JOY!!!
I love my baby girl to bits and nothing in this world will ever change that. i am 18 weeks pregnant now and its been the greatest 18 weeks of my life, dispite all the morning sicknesses and other horrible first trimester symptoms.
i’ll be graduating in 2013 if all goes well and i’m doing all of this because of angel. i want whats best for her, like any mother would. even though sometimes i get lonely and wish her father was around to share these wonderful moments with him, but that doesn’t bother me anymore. Its his loss and not mine.
knowing that there is a life growing inside of you makes you look at life differently. it makes you appreciate the things that you thought they don’t matter, while in actual fact, they do matter even though we choose to ignore them.
i am proud to say i didn’t let anyone bring me down about this pregnancy and that i didn’t abort this lil angel inside of me.
to all the girls out there, don’t let anyone get to you because you pregnant and vulnerable. bringing a new life in this world is the most wonderful thing one could ever experience. listen to your heart and do what is right for you and your baby. XOXOXO
new to this so hello
Hi everyone.
To begin, I’m here because I’m 17 and pregnant and also the other board I was on had too much drama, and the stress wasn’t good for the baby, I’m 2 months and 5 days pregnant. My baby is due on January 8, I have a lot of emotions spinning, but I felt I was ready to have sex so I’m ready to be a mother. I’m not too scared, but I’m not too happy. I have a little bump but I’m afraid of what people will say when I start to get bigger. Only my baby’s father and his mom, my mom, my mom’s best friend forever and my big sis know. So it’ll be a surprise for everyone else, to be honest, I’m nowhere near close to being prepared for this baby, but I’m ready to accept my little one and the responsibilities that come along with it.
Is there anyone out there that can relate to me?
I Hope You Dance.
Well, I love this song. It kind of reminds me about myself, and alot of you standupgirls on here xo I can’t help but cry everytime I hear it!
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder You get your fill to eat But always keep that hunger May you never take one single breath for granted God forbid love ever leave you empty handed I hope you still feel small When you stand by the ocean Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens Promise me you’ll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance I hope you dance I hope you dance
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance Never settle for the path of least resistance Living might mean taking chances But they’re worth taking Lovin’ might be a mistake But it’s worth making Don’t let some hell bent heart Leave you bitter When you come close to selling out Reconsider Give the heavens above More than just a passing glance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance I hope you dance
I hope you still feel small When you stand by the ocean Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens Promise me you’ll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance Dance I hope you dance
xoxoxoxo
My First Moment With “STANDUPGIRL”
Hello everyone!!
I am so glad I found this website. The moment I stepped in here, I was so amazed how open the people are here to share their true life stories. I have read a lot of them. Some are sharing their success stories that are truly encouraging and enlightening. Though others may state how painful they have been through, however, those are still very important lessons that I can learn personally. I really salute how strong you guys are and how have you been an inspiration to many despite the gender.
Hope this website can reach many more of the people around the globe. I am certain that through this website, young or old, men or women, will have an open mind to come up with a sound decision of their lives, most likely of those related to pregnancy.
I would definitely want to refer to my friends about this new place on the web to hang on!
P.S. Please me up as your friends. 🙂
