My teen pregnancy :)?

Question

Im 16 and 33 weeks with twin girls :) Wondering if there are any types of programs or classes I can do? To the people that are tempted to tell me what a f*ck up or how bad teen pregnancy is, keep it to yourself :) It was an accident, but were happier than ever now and just want to make a good life for my girls. I have a LOT of support from the dad (still together) and from all 4 sets of grandparents.

I was put on bedrest at 18 weeks so I did my school online, but now with my girls coming in the next 5 weeks I don't intend to jump straight back to public school, what are other options? I was thinking of doing my online school again or a program called Winema at a local college where you can take your kids with you, but I don't know any other options. I cant take any parenting classes while Im pregnant (bedrest) but are there classes for after birth or maybe even private sessions. Anything helps tips, stories, websites, or numbers.

I live in Salem, Oregon if that helps any :) Thanks.
