Candice, If you havent had a period since August, you need to get tested to see if you are pregnant. You would be like 3 months along and your child would need to get some kind of prenantal care to make sure there is nothing wrong. If you are pregnant there could be risks involved or something could be wrong and you wont know it. Please get tested, i think a blood test at a hospital is 10 dollars. If you dont want to tell your parents til you are sure than go to the pharmacy and get a test. you dont need your parents for that. I hope it all works out, and if you need any additional help, feel free to message me. === kyra

sounds like pregnancy symptoms to me. you can pick up a test at a drug store and do the test at home. do you have support from your parents if you're pregnant? If not, you'll need to talk to someone for counseling. it's ok. you'll be ok. i was young, too when i had my first baby. he was a blessing! all babies are blessings! i can't imagine my life without him. sometimes it makes me cry when i think back to when i was pregnant, because a lot of people (everyone) told me to get an abortion. i'm so glad i didn't listen to any of them! i couldn't have lived with that. people have babies all the time, it's normal. you can go back to school, use daycare. it's a bit tough, but worth it. take a deep breath and relax and trust your instincts. if you need to talk please post.
