Just Need to Get It Out!
Posted: 05-08-07 03:57am

I'm so stressed at the moment!
1. It feels like i'm the only adult in my relationship at the moment, ok that makes .Dom sound so bad he's not honestly. It just seems asthough i'm th eonly one looking at everything logically, .Dom wants to carry on playing rugby which i have no problem with but it costs £80 up front at the beggining of each season which for some reason he thinks we're going to be able to spare. I've seen how hard it is with children because my sister has two and is still young so i know exactly how hard it is, but .Dom doesn't have any family with kids so has no idea.
2. A friend of mine has just found out she's pregnant and seems to think that i can solve all of her worldly problems! There are five, yes five potential fathers and she has no idea which one it is. It's nice that she feels asthough she can rely on me for advice but she's expecting me to tell her whether to keep the baby or not, as if i can make that decision for her.
3. My auntie's husband left her after 27 years a month or so ago and i found out yesterday that it was for a close friend of mine's mother.
4. I have my first exam in two weeks and i am no where near ready for it
5. I am sick of reading articles in magazines of other teenage mothers whose parents buy everything for their baby for them. I worked every weekend and some nights after school up untill i was just over 20 weeks (i only gave up because of my bad back i would still be doing it now if my back was ok) just so that i could have my independence and buy things for my baby by myself.

Pheww it's all out now sorry that it's gone on for so long

adited because i forgot something and then again because i can't spell!

that must suck, i think its stupid that your friend wants u to decide whats best for her baby, she got pregnant without you so therefore she needs to make those decisions on her own, i would say with the father but seeing as she doesnt know whose it is shes basically on her own on that one, it always seems when one thing goes wrong everything else seems to follow right behind. I hope your friend makes the right decision though

I hope she does too. She was like 'you've kept your baby does that mean i should too?'. Her boyfriend, her ex boyfriend and three random guys from one night stands are in the running for father of the year Rolling Eyes

she seems a lil on the not so bright side, age has nothing to do with pregnancy, she was old enough to get herself pregnant shes old enough to figure out what to do now that she knows she is pregnant. You can offer her advice on well more like ask her if she kept her baby how she planned on raising it etc, or if she was gonna put it up for adoption, you sorta got to think to the future first and go from there, hopefully she figures out what she really wants. Just because you kept your baby doesnt mean she has to keep hers, its her choice as to what she wants to do.
I hate people that dont even know who there kids father is, i can see between 2 diff guys but 5! thats a whole nother story right there.

I don't get it either, she's gunna be 17 in september you would think she would know how babies are made by now! I did some research for her and gave her print outs about what happens during abortion side effects etc and adoption companies in the local area and the laws surrounding it and told her absulutly everything about my pregnancy so far and as far as i can see that's all i can do to help her really

Your such a good person. Here you are with a list of issues that you are facing right now or your own and your still feeling responsible for other peoples problems. You are a good person and a good friend. That is why it is so hard for you. You just don't get why they cant listen to you (especially your friend) and she really is asking way to much.

And kudo's to you for supporting yourself through this and handling this so well and with such maturity. I'm not sure if anyone has told you this but we are all very proud of you. And any child will be lucky to have you as a mother.

You know the old saying "When it rains, it pours." Just hang in there... that is an awful lot to deal with. You seem so sweet, but try not to worry about every one else. Just start concentrating on that exam coming up and little Mika's very soon to be arrival! Very
Happy It will get better.

im so sorry your feeling so crappy right now...i think its something in the air

i know how you feel though, feeling like your the only resposible adult around, and your friend is very immature if you ask me, she needs to be slapped, im sorry about your aunt, i hate it when people break up, esecially if its someone you care about, i hear ya on the people buying everything for these kids, i mean my family and my in-laws have done a lot for me but ive also been in school this whole time and i work from 5 inthe morning to usualy about 6 at night (with school for about 2-3 hours in there) then mondays and wendsdays i have to go back to school for 2 hours at 6:30, im 38 weeks and going to school and working and everything and then i hear about these kids who drop out the day they find out and never work a day in their lives, they rather live off the government...grr it just angers me off so much

good luck with your exams, your a very bright girl, just focus on the positive and pass them for your little girl...i know you can, i have complete faith in you
