I Could Be.. Who Knows? Posted: 01-23-05 19:47pm
Well, I think I am pregnant. I took the
test. And it came out positive. I'm so
scared. I have no idea what's ahead of
me. I feel so lost. I haven't told my
mom yet but i'm planning to really really
soon.
The first day of my last period I think
was on december 9, 2004 and I didn't get
my period last january 9, 2005 and i'm
always right on time. So, I got scared
and took the test.
How do kids my age cope with this? I'm in
a relationship with my baby's father.
Which kind of makes me feel better.
I grew up in a broken family and its true
what they say that its the kids who suffer
in the separation of the parents. You
see, I don't want my kid growing up like
me.
It came to me that i'm not the only one
affected here. There's a whole bunch of
people. Especially my boyfriend, who's
just 18 and in first year college and my
baby.
Anyone, please don't hesitate to give me
some pointers. I'm only 16.

Talk to your boyfriend about it and your
mother. I am sure you will feel a lot
better afterwards.

Hey sweetie. I am in pretty much the same
situation as you. My last period was the
same day yours was (pretty weird) so we
are the same amount of weeks pregnant. I
found out not very long after I was late
for my period in january.
I am a little older than you...I am 19 and
my boyfriend is 28. I have a relationship
with the father of my baby, but it is very
rocky at times. I am a sophomore in
college and work part-time and my baby's
father does not even have a job. He says
he is going to start looking for one
soon...Which he really needs to b/c I will
not be able to support the baby
financially on my own. My bf already has
2 other children from 2 other women :(
i still have not told my parents eiether
but bought a "granparents" book for them
to kind of help me break the news to them.
Have you made a prenatal appointment yet?
I have my first appointment scheduled for
mid-february when I will be 10wks
pregnant.
I am very scared and lost just as you are
and would be happy to talk to you
whenever.
It shows that you are thinking ahead for
your child's future by being concerned
about the father situation. Do you and
your bf have a good relationship? How
long have you been together? Do your
parents approve of your relationship?
I have only been w/ my bf for about 6
months and my parents have never ever met
him. They do not approve with our
relationship b/c I am white and he is
black...And then there is the age
difference. They don't even know all of
the other details about him, and if they
did I know that would make them dissaprove
even more.
I know this is a very scary time b/c I
have not stopped thinking/stressing about
it since I saw those 2 lines come up on
the pregnancy test.
I know I didn't give alot of advice, but
just know that you are not alone and the
ladies on this board are great to come to
for guidance. I hope everything is going
okay with you...Have you told your bf?
How does he feel?

Wow really? You had your last period on
the 9th of december too? Lol!
My boyfriend and I have been going out for
almost 2 years now and its been great!
:d i'm not asking him to pay for any of
the expenses because I know my family will
take care of it all.. But when I told him
that, he said I was crazy! Lol
i've tried telling my mom. I said its
possible that I am pregnant. She reacted
pretty cool about it. I mean, yeah she
got a bit mad but who wouldn't right?
Initial reaction. She thinks I haven't
tested myself yet so she advised me to do
so as soon as possible. I'm trying to act
all clueless and innocent about this.
The worst part would be probably when I
tell my dad. He's so nice and all but he
shouts a whole lot. I doubt that he'll
hit me or something.. Or will he? I
really wouldn't know cause this has never
happened before. I hope my stepmom won't
make me look bad infront of my dad cause
god knows that's all she ever does!
Anyway.. Back to the topic...
I'm getting myself tested again this
weekend... How am I gonna tell my mom?
What if my parents decide on aborting my
baby? What then? I'm sort of really
attached to it already and killing my baby
won't do good for me.
I'm on my 7th week already... Time flies
so fast!! It's amazing. :wink:

whole world to know...
