love that baby.

Answer 2

I wish you the best of luck.

There are a number of teen-mother support groups online, google it. I think there's a famous one called 'young mommies"

you might also strongly consider visiting a crisis pregnancy center. they'll give you counseling, and will help you out financially, by giving you diapers and baby clothes.

if you ever need anyone to talk to, feel free to email me.

Answer 3

I had a child at the young age of 15.  Got pregnant my very first time having s*x.  My parents were supportive but they insisted that me and my daughter's dad get married. Worst mistake of my life!  Women mature faster then men do and he wasn't ready to commit to a family.  Fast forward 23 years and my daughter has graduated from Grambling University and has a 10 month old daughter herself.  There were many challenging times raising her but my family helped and we kinda grew up together. We're very close and live together. We even go out together.  Put your child first in your life and pray and everything will work out.  Don't automatically get married though like I did.  We got divorced 9 months later.

My 17 year old GranDaughter just had her baby girl this past July,its a big life changeing experience and it does'nt have to be a bad one.

My GranDaughter and her Daughter are doing fine with help from her family, her boy friend is 18 years old and is working but he allso stays at our familys home. He's takeing his test for a GED and my GranDaughter begins an online school next week and she allso has a job.

You need support from both of your familes plus you can get some more help from Government programs like WICK just do a little searching on google and talk to some of your friends because you will be surprized at what help is available to you.

Most importantly trust in Jesus and you cant go wrong.

My Wife and i Love our brand new GreatGrandDaughter :)

Answer 7

I'm 16 and 20 weeks pregnant. I'm still with my boyfriend too but he's in jail (sounds worse than it is I promise).  We talked about getting married before I got pregnant too but I don't know if that's the right decision yet.  Are you going to school still?  I'm starting 11th grade home schooled.  I was supposed to move in with my Mom but she's not too stable right now so I'm with my Dad for the time being.  Ha ha we have a lot in common.  Good luck! =]

Answer 8

Stay strong. For your family but more importantly  yourself.

Answer 9

Well Channell I can only imagine what you are feeling.  You didn't really say in your question.  But I do know that when you are pregnant it's like being on an emotional roller coaster.  And I bet you didn't want to start your marriage out with already having a child.  But you know I have known women in the same position you are right now and everything worked out fine for them.  If you and you BF love each other then by all means go ahead and get married.  You also don't mention how old he is or if he has any type of job to help support you and your child.  I'm sure he is feeling some of the same pressure you are right now.  You know in life many times we have certain plans that don't seem to work out the way we thought they would.  The best thing to do is to roll with them and make the best of the situation that you can.  Sometimes things can even turn out better than you had originally thought.  So keep you head high and stay strong.  This difficult time will pass for you.  You know I got married at 18 myself.  I have now been happily married for 32 years.  I wish you all the best on this new journey for your life.  God Bless you!

Answer 10

well you sound like a lucky pregnant teen =)

all i can say is GOOD LUCK =)

Answer 11

my best advice would be to make sure that you continue your education, even with a baby. You have a lot of work ahead of you, so get ready for it. Life will be much easier if you have a high school diploma, and some college education. Good luck to you.
