Mommy2twogreatkids - 70 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) by doing exactly what your doing. Talking to other people and moms. Whether you decide to keep the baby or give it up you will find many helpful and considerate people to help you decide. Good Luck Sweetie!!

Heaven - 71 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I just found out i'm pregnant and i'm 18 years old. school is my first option because of course i want to keep my child. i am personally against abortion becuase there are sooo many families out there that can't have children and would love to have a child. you can always give the baby up for adoption and if you really want to work hard to keep your baby the only thing i can say is stay in school and get support from your family.

christina1984 - 71 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) how old are you if i may ask? do u have a supportive family?can many teens are able to have a child and finish school its just a little harder. is the dad in the picture? there are many free clinics and programs as well as state help. adoption is also a great thing to do for a family who cant have kids. i wont recommend abortion tho cuz i am very against it. but i had 3 friends who had a child a 16 and 17 and now years later they are doing great. i wasnt a teen with my 1st i was 20 and my family is crazy so they were angry at 1st but they are fine now. you have to not only what is best for you but what is best for the baby

mrscolegrove - 71 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) well i had my first child at 13 second at 14 thrird at 19 and ill have my forth at 21 i dont have my prior children because there dad kidnapped them but i fight everyday to find them and i never regret that i had them and i will get them back of course i did drop out of highschool cuz the babies mattered more its all up to you on what you want but talk to a doctor about what you feel is best

dvsrunt - 71 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I got pregnant with my son at 16. I decided to keep him. He's now 13 and I have a daughter, 5 and another baby on the way. I dont regret my decision at all and would say that the clinic is a great place to start. They had alot of information for me and were very helpful. I was kicked out when my parents found out I was pregnat. I managed to work, graduate high school and raise a wonderful young man. You need to do some soul searching on what you want to do, don't question yourself...be strong and proud of your decision (whatever it may be).

agonzales - 72 days ago Rating: 5 (1 votes) Well Im no longer a teen but I have been a teen parent before. I got pregnant when I was 15 and I kept my baby... of course with the help and support of my parents. It was hard but I dont regret it one bit.

stephandisaac - 72 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I agree with lv2bamommy. My sister in law runs a pregnancy center and it was one of the greatest experiences I had before becoming a mother. They offer a lot of help and support. I also learned so much about taking care of my son. Good luck to you with whatever decision you make :)

lv2bamommy - 72 days ago Rating: 5 (1 votes) Are there crisis centers where you live? Look in the phone book under family planning or pregnancy counseling &/or information. They will dicuss all of your options and help you decide what would be best for you and your baby! ~Good Luck~

Debra - 72 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) have you seen the movie Juno? you may be able to relate to her. There are a lot of options out there, help and support! Adoption can be open or closed these days...or even a variation of the two. Open means that you can still visit your child, receive updates, photos etc, closed means you have no further contact. If you plan on keeping your baby, have a look at my VIP site for some tips on taking care of yourself during pregnancy, birth and after baby care and breast feeding. It isn't easy being a teenager and taking care of your baby and you have some tough decisions to make. It will also depend on the level of support you have. If the father or his family or your family will be involved with you and the baby, then raising it may be much easier for you. You are still young and make sure that you take care of yourself too! You deserve it! This means finishing school and living your dreams too!

jessicahedden - 72 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I'm not too sure what the question is, but I am 19 and I have a 2 month old little girl. I kept her. I also have a little boy that I placed for adoption when I was 14. So I know a little about both choices. If you need any help or someone to talk to, I am here.
