Im 17 and 8 weeks pregnant.. Im really
scared. I don't know what to do.. I want
to finish college, as im doing really
well, but I cant if I have a baby. Is
that selfish of me?
One of my friends isnt very supportive, as
she keeps trying to make me feel bad if I
have an abortion. She keeps talking to me
about it as if im going to definetly keep
it, and looking at baby things when im
around. I hate it.
I do want to keep it, but its not ideal.
Im still with my boyfriend, we dont know
what to do.
I guess I just need reassuring.

How does your boyfried feel about it?
This is *not* your friend's pregnancy.
She has no say in it.
You *can* finish college with a child, I
don't know where you got the idea you
can;t.

I know my friend has no say.. Its just
annoying me alot.
I dont think I can finish college, cause
baby is due april, im in my second year of
college.. My exams are in june. I'll be
missing alot. I guess I could do it, but
I dont know.
We are going to have a proper talk about
it tonight. So far all hes said is that
everything is going to be fine.

Yyou know there are daycares for that
sort of thing.. And most colleges have
daycares. You should look into it. A lot
of people go to school and have a baby.
Your not hte first one.

No its not selfish at all , im going back
to school after 3 months and then going to
college and uni after that, as long as you
still spend quality time with your baby
then theres no reason why you shouldnt, it
gives you something to do and a social
life as well as providing qualifications
and a secure job which in the long run
will benefit the baby anyway :d if I can
do it so can you, because I go to a posh
school and already they dont want me
there, you just have to know your rights
and stand your ground if you want to
theres always a way
good luck....

If u reli think that u can't do it, look
into adoption. U can chose the parents,
and see your child a lot if u have an open
adoption. The baby will probably have a
better life and u can be free to do what u
want for a few years before having kids at
a better time.
