If you are already three weeks late I
think it would be ok to take it mid day.
The only reason they suggest to take it in
the morning is because your hormone levels
will show the best in the morning. Go
ahead and take the test but remember some
women will go their whole pregnancy and
not have a postive hpt. If the symptoms
persist then go to the doctor and have
blood work done. You are already so late
that they will do this for you no problem.
My mom and sister never had a hpt show
up positive, only you know your body.
Good luck

Hi neeko,
did u buy the twin packs...
Go ahead and take it, you should have
produced enough hormone now unless your
like the rest of us (like me). In other
words, that keep getting negatives but
still having the symptoms.
Good luck
what syptoms have u been having??

Well just take one step at a time and
think what you want to do! If you are
going to keep it, well maybe having a word
with your mother will relieve some of the
pressure! Talking to someone will help.
I know these boards are great for support
but getting if off your chess will make
you think straight. Contact your local
support groups for unplanned pregnancy.
I hope it works out for u?

Im afraid to tell my bf just because its
kinda a bad time in his life for something
like this and im not sure how hes going to
react.. I know his parents r going to
freak rite the f*$% out!!!! And im not
ready that from his parents.. Even tho
they are like my own... My mom will be
upset but she will be supportive I know
that and wont yell and scream, altho my
dad mite try to kill my bf.. Lol but that
will just be temporary.. The only thing
is .. I see both sets of parents as my
own.. Except mine are completely against
abortion.. And his are for it.. I know
they will want me to get it done.. His
mom would cuz she doesnt want me to ruin
his life.. But my mom would want me to
keep it (which I think is what I want) so
I will be stuck in the middle.. And I
dont even know how hes going to act about
it (my bf) I think his first reaction will
be to get mad and not believe me, its just
the way he is.. Eventually he will come
around and if I need to take another test
to rove it to him I will... I dont know
when the best time to tell him is.. I
dont want to tell my parents or his until
after I move out (im moving out in 8 days)
cuz it will be too much for them to
comprehend all at once... Wow.. Im so
confused.. And im typing so much lol
sorry.. I dunno what id do without this
board to ask questions and stuff on

You need to not care what anyone else
thinks... Do not have an abortion for
anyone else, you will regret that forever.
If you do chose to have an abortion
(which I dont think you should) then it
need to be only your choice. A baby is a
gift not a bad thing. It comes down to
this... You are going to be the mother no
one else. You do whats best for you and
the baby.

You should do what you feel is right, dont
let the parents pressure you, I got preg
at 15 and I made the decision to keep her,
I wanted her and was not giving her up no
matter what anyone said, you might be
surprised at how his parents react, I was
when we told my hubbys I thought they
would hate me for ruining his life but
they where the total opposite, they where
mad at him!! Well good luck at least you
know your own parents will be supportive
:)

Also get into the doctor as soon as
possible and start taking prenatals. It
is never to early to start. Give it
time to sink in I know that this is a huge
shock. Just give yourself time to
accept it and decide what to do and then
tell everyone. I think you just need to
make a decision and stand firm in it.
It may be hard as first but it will get
better.
If you want to see what your baby looks
like right now go to www.Babycenter.Com
it's really neat and its exciting to know
what is going on inside you right now.
Click on pregnancy, then development of
the fetus. If you are 7 weeks there is
already a heartbeat. Check out the site.

I had a feeling it would be positive!
Congratulations!
I wanted to share with you my experience
and it may help you out in your decision.
I had found out I was pregnant back in
february... I was not afraid to tell my
mom or my sister... But they both pushed
me very hard for an abortion. I inside,
wanted to keep it, but I felt like I was
disappointing everyone around me. It got
the best of me and I did abort it.
Here I am, 8 weeks pregnant again. I
found out around 5 weeks. The only
person I told was my fiance. I decided
against telling my mother or my sister for
a week or so, so that I could truely think
about what I wanted to do. I decided
that I was going to keep this baby, no
matter what.
After telling my mom, she cried and she
was scared for me. She still pushed the
abortion issue on me, and I said "mom,
listen, I am going to keep this baby.
All I can ask from you is support, because
I am really going to need it". She
understood and she has supported me and my
decision ever since.
My sister lol, well, I waited 2 weeks to
tell her... Because she had gotten 2
abortions herself. Her opinion and
support really means alot to me, but I
knew there was going to be atleast a
temporary negative outburst from her.
She lives across the street from me, but
we are pretty busy with our own lives, so
she didnt notice any changes in my
appearance or attitude.
My fiance was actually the one to tell
her... After her initial shock, and the
realization that I was going to keep this
baby, she also accepted it with open arms
and gave me her full support.
Believe me, its a scary thing, telling the
people you love about an unexpected
pregnancy. I am a little older than you,
21, but where I live... Where all the
rich snobs live lol... This is
unexceptable and I am way too young. But
I had to think about myself... Not
everyone else!
If you truely want to keep this baby, you
do that. You will be surprised on how
many people embrase this instead of
turning you away. Keep your head up!
