A Never Turned into A ForeverI'm 18 years of age and have been out of highschool for 8 months now (class of '09). At my highschool teenage girls would be pregnant all the time, walking around with big bellies. Thankfully our school was not a judgmental one, so we had no reason to care. Their friends were very supportive and they all graduated with good grades and everything. So here's my story. I am currently with my 1 year boyfriend. We've liked each other since day ONE of 6th grade, but have never ever dated until Feb of '09. My ex before him possibly gave me a pelvic disease, which the doctor's told me I would never be able to concieve children. Can you believe that? Hearing that at 17 years old..that I would never be able to be a mother? So at the beginning of my relationship to Andrew, I told him if this worked out that we would not be able to have children, him being the sweetheart that he was said that didn't matter as long as he could have me for a wife. I knew then and there we'd be together forever. So just this past month (December) I find out that I am indeed 1 month and 1 week pregnant. Although I am 18 years old, I find this to be a blessing sent directly from God. Even though the doctor's said I would never be able to be a mother, God had different plans. Now my boyfriend is overly, OVERLY ,excited and happier than anyone I Know. Whats even better is that I have my parents full support and I know they love me. Age good of a mother you are. You just have to have faith love and support. And most of all, believe in YOURSELF, and love your self. No one can ever take that away from you. 15 and pregnantI'm 15, and my boyfriends 18 . i don't have a job but im going to school . He has a job tho . on December 22 i found out i was pregnant. i'm about 6 weeks pregnant, and im so scared. im due around August 25th 2010 . we've only been together for 6 months, but i love him so much, and its not like one of those puppydog loves i've been in before, i really have a good feeling in this one. hes totally supportive and helps me with everything.We haven't told our parents yet. but his sister, and my cousin who's also my bestfriend knows. and a couple of close friends. i'm not sure on how to tell my parents. i really need help Courtney Every Pregnancy Is DifferentI am 30 and 10 weeks pregnant with my 2nd child. My little boy is 2, and can be a major handful some days. I work full time on top of it all, and have been struggling to make it through each work day. I have had 'morning sickness' every day, nearly every waking hour, since the day I found out I was pregnant at 6 weeks. I am nauseous all the time, very tired, and have occasional dizzy spells. My house is a disaster, I sleep later than I should every day, and my husband is already sick of it all, and of me complaining about it. It was a miracle I managed to get my Christmas shopping done, though it did get procrastinated until the last minute. I got to tell my parents and in-laws on Christmas Day, which was a lot of fun! I have been talking to my son about his future sibling, but he is too young to understand what it means. My dog knows something is different about me and has been at my side more than usual lately- he is so smart! I am scared sometimes that we won't be able to afford another baby, or that something will go wrong, but even so, I am really excited to add to my family!Val 16 and may be 5 weeks pregnant <3I am 16 years old. My boyfriend/ fiance and i are in a caring and loving relationship. we have been together for over 2 years. I thought something was up the last week of November, when i was suppose to have my normal period. Instead, it was very light and didnt last quite as long as my other ones usually do. I also had no cramps whatsoever, which is terribly rare for me because usually I am practically bed-ridden the first two days of my period. Less than a few days later I started feeling nausea when i woke up in the morning and after i ate every meal but didnt puke or anything like that. I took a test a few days later and it was negative. Two weeks later I am still Nauseous, I have terrible backpain, my stomach is bloated, I am tired all of the time, I am having terrible mood swings and I have to pee all of the time it seems. My best friend and boyfriend and I all believe I am probably pregnant. I have to wait another week and a half to take another test to see if this is true. but both my boyfriend and i really hope i am. We know we are ready to take care of this loving bundle of joy, even though we werent really trying for one. :)I am so excited to find out.! Tricia WorriedHello,So I am 18, a freshmen in college and pregnant.
