Are you pregnant?
.If you are, this is something you should
ask your doctor.
If you're not... Don't get pregnant, and
you won't have to worry about it.

Since you are so young the risk of
complications are high. You should
definetly talk to a family member or an
adult you trust about pre-natal care or
any other options you may be considering.

Nowadays, dying during labor is very
unlikely.
And back in the old days, 13 was the norm
to have a baby.. So I dont see how age
can be a factor in this.

Anything is possible is life. But you do
need to remember that doctors access every
possible problem that could occur so it is
very unlikely. In the victorian times
then yes it was very likely because people
were in ditches having babies with no care
at all but in the modern world we live in
it is almost a garentee that it will all
go well

you think you are only 2 weeks pregnant???
When did you find out you were pregnant?
I would have thought at your age it would
have took you longer to get a positive
result on a test!

She might not know how the doctors
calculate it if she hasn't been yet

Have you taken a pregnancy test? Are you
absolutely sure you are pregnant and maybe
not just late on your period?
In any case, especially due to your age,
you need to go to a doctor as soon as
possible to find out how far along you are
and do all the basic pregnancy things
every pregnant woman needs to do.
Have you told your mom yet? That is going
to need to be done as soon as you can do
it because being an adult starts right now
- and you are going to need all the
support you can get!

If I were you I would go to see the
doctor. I went three says after I found
out (i had to wait that long because the
surgery was closed due to flooding)
because I couldn't stand the thought of a
baby growing in me and I haven't made sure
that it's ok

You may experience complications during
your pregnany you may not.. No one an
tell you.. The best thing to do is talk
to your doctor they will be able to tell
you much more.
Congrats and good luck

How come nobody has told her there's no
such thing as "2 weeks pregnant"?

if she hasn't been to the doctors and
doesn't know that the edd is calculated
from the first day of your last period
then she might think that she is two weeks
when in reality if she is pregnant she
would be about 4-5 weeks

if she hasn't been to the doctors then
she's not sure she's pregnant and she said
"yes i'm pregnant" and for a 13 year old
to be just assuming she's pregnant and not
been to a doctor yet then that's really
strange.
If she took a test then she'd have to be 4
weeks or over right?

I think so maths has never been my strong
point. When I went to the doctors he said
I would be 5 weeks from the first day of
last period. If she doesn't know how
anything works then maybe she could be
counting from the last time she had sex?

The thought of 13 year olds having sex
sickens me.
