Have you tried talking to your parents
yet? Talk to them, tell them your
concerns, maybe they will help you with
getting the test. You should also think
about your options...Whether or not you
think youre ready to be a mom or whether
or not youre willing to give a couple who
desperatley wants a baby, a chance at
parenthood.
If youre not ready to tell your parents
till you know for sure, is there a friend
that could help you out? What about the
possible father? Have you tried asking
him to pick up an ept for you?

You should probably try to get this test
done soon...If you are around 2 months
already, you should get into see an obgyn
pretty soon.

Pre-natal care is extrememly important for
the health of your baby. That is, if you
are pregnant. You need to do whatever it
takes, to get to a doctor and get checked
on.

Thanks u guys but I cant tell myparent
theyll freak and kick they have before.
This is not my first time but the last
time I had a miscarrage. The baby's daddy
is out of town for another week or two so
I cant ask hiw but I think I will kno if I
am in about 3 weeks cuz I will prolly
start to show and besides my period is
normaly on time. But I am prolly gonna
keep the baby the father knows and wants
the baby because he doesnt believe in
abortion and neither do i. Also adoption
we couldnt do that cause he is in foster
care and he hates it so he made me promise
that I wouldnt do that.

Listen, you need to get online and
research pregnancy! What you can and can
not eat, what medicine you cant take and
things like that. You will not start to
show this soon, I was 5 months before you
could really tell that I was preggy. You
need to get vitamins with folic acid in
them. This prevents birth defects in your
baby. But first of all you need to figure
out if you are pregnant. You may have
some of the signs o pregnancy but a
swollen tummy is not one of them. Your
breasts being tender, increased vaginal
discharge, hair growing on your belly,
extreme fatigue, mestraul cramps but no
bleeding and slight spotting of bright red
blood, are all signs that you may be
pregnant. Do what I sad and go look
online, I know that this is a scary time
for you and if you need to talk just pm
me, I am 16 and 28 weeks pregnant with my
first child, a little girl. So if I can
be any help to you let me know. My e-mail
address is blueey
ze420@yahoo.Com, feel free to ask as
many questions as you need to!!!!!!

It sounds bad but you need to get in to a
dr asap try faking headaches or flu
symptoms so your parents bring you to dc,
would that work in your situation?

You should try talking to your school
guidance counselor, you could probably get
some help there...I know a girl in my old
high school who thought she was preg. And
the counselor went and bought her a hpt.

How old is the father, if I may ask? The
father of mine is only 16....
I was about 2 months when I first found
out. Even before my dr appointment, I was
able to start taking care of myself. Try
not to have too much caffine stuff like
pop, coffee, and limit yourself on
chocolate. As she said above, folic acid
is very important. Start reading lables
and make better choices....Better safe
then sorry. You're also limited on sea
food seeing as many fish contain high
levels of mercury which is bad for the
baby. Salmon is alright....Lite tuna is
ok (not albacor)...Shrimp and other
non-fishy things are alright too. No
swordfish or shark or anything like
that.
My mom flipped a bit when she found out I
was preggie.....But she's fine with it
now. She told me I should have told her
when I got active so I could go on the
shot....But too late! I'm surprised your
mom didn't offer any more reliable birth
control after your first accident. I wish
you luck tho, and remember, it's not
really a good or bad thing....It's what
you make it out to be.

Listen I may be harsh but
you need to tell someone! A friend ,
family member, someone. You need to find
out. Its selfish of you to keep waiting
bc you need to get on vitamins asap. If
you think youre preggy and going to be a
mom then grow up and get help

When I found out that I was pregnant I
didnt want to tell my mom right away but I
knew that I needed prenatal vitamins. So
I went to walgreens and bought some for
like $9, target has them for $7. I took
them home and then sharpied out the label
so that my mom could not see that they
were for pregnant women. Ask your dad to
take you and then tell him that you need
to get something personal, tell him that
he can wait in the car and then go buy
them ( dont forget to double bag so he can
see) and if he asks tell him that it has
something to do with a female problem,
beleive me he wont pry anymore after that!

Hey guys I kno I need to get help and go
to the doctor but my mom hates the doctors
and I have told some people and they all
tell me its all in my head but something
just aint right with my body if u kno wat
I mean!Dont worry I will go to the dctor
soon I kno how essential it is for me to
get the prenatal care and I dont want my
baby to be unhealthy. My mom told me to
tell her wen I was gonna get active again
but I didnt kno that me n my b/f was gonna
do it at that moment ya kno. It was just
a spur of the moment sorta thing.

Hun, your mom sounds like a pretty
reasonable person.....If you are pregnant
your going to have to tell her eventually,
but right now I think the best thing is
for you to get to a clinic or something,
or at least test so you can know wether or
not you are..

Hunnie I do not care if your parents will
freak on you if you are pregnant this is
unfair 10000000% to your unborn child that
you are not getting medical attention!
You need to dicuss this with your parents
since the fact is they are the sole
providers of insurance for the baby and
you as well ans since you are only 15 you
arent even capable of working you need to
tell them! This is unfair to the baby!

Jesamyn is right sarah...And I know youre
scared to tell them, but think about it,
if you are, they are going to know when
your belly gets bigger..They are going to
find out soon enough anyway...Show them
that you are responsible and strong enough
to come to them about it....Even if they
freak, assure them that you need and want
their support anf help.
I got pregnant at 17 and telling my mom
was terrifying, shes kinda mean, and after
I did, she freaked and things were rough,
but she did come around, and helped me
alot. Now hes alomost 9 and still her
pride and joy...She apologized for ever
expecting me to abort him or give him up
and really is proud of the way I take care
of him...
You need to swallow your fears and think
about what is best for your (possible)
baby. If telling your parents and dealing
with their wrath will help you get
prenatal care sooner, do it. Be strong.
You think telling them is gonna be hard,
wait till you have to go thru
motherhodd....Thats the scariest thing you
will ever do
trust me....
