there ya gooo!
and here's my son with my daughter.

I wanna say first off that you are very brave and I want to support you in your decision!! I chose to keep my daughter, and IMO honestly it isnt as bad as some people may make it seem. I'm not saying it's not hard, because it is, but it's not impossible. Its too early to make a decision, but I can say that it's hard not to get attached. But my advice is just to remind yourself constantly that its the best thing you can do for your child if you can't support him/her. Have you told your parents yet? are they supportive? What about the babies father? My parents totally neglected me after i told them i was pregnant, and i ended up living with my boyfriend.

Whatever you decide to do, I'd like to be there & support you. I'm going to parent tank you so if you want we can chat more about this :]

Quoting God:“ No advice, but wanted to offer best wishes. C.”

Thank you

I did tell my parents the day I found out. My Mother is my ROCK. She is amazing and I was not expecting her to be supportive. My Dad is still angry. And my Mom said that I have to give him time. Which I understand. I just hate not talking to him because though this is killing him, him not talking to me is destroying me.

My boyfriend is scared, and he hasn't told his parents yet. He needs to grow some balls, but he promises to do it soon.

Part of me hopes and wishes that everything I'm feeling will eventually go away. I don't want to be 7,8,9 months pregnant and still feel distant from the baby. I hope that what people are telling me is the truth, and that when I start feeling the baby move I'll start to feel more attatched.

well whatever you decide to do...I support you!!

Thankss!

i just wanted to wish you luck in your decision...

Hi! Some of the ladies told me about your situation sooooo I figured I'd check it out, haha.   When I was 16 (a junior in high shool) I got knocked up by some scumbag from the beach. Yeah..he was a great "friend", lol. Anyway..I ended up giving him up for adoption. I went through Mother Goose adoptions and got to pick the family. It is VERY open and I see him often! I get to talk to him on the phone, get pictures, we vacation together, and I'm actually going to see him this month!! He's 3 now, and he's going to get to meet his little sister! Woo Hoo! Don't get me wrong..I didn't want to give him away, but my mom said if I kept him I wouldn't be allowed to come home from the hospital with them..and I knew I wouldn't be able to raise a baby on my own. In my opinion it would have been SELFISH to keep him, and have him suffer because of my choices. I'm not saying thatyoung momscan't do it, but I didn't want him and I to have to struggle when I knew that another family who couldn't have a child would have been able to provide him with everything he WANTED and NEEDED, not just the bare essentials. Anyway...so that's what I did. It was the HARDEST thing I have ever done in my life. When I see how happy and well taken care of he is..it makes me so proud and happy that I chose adoption. If you ever need to talk, I'm here for you, and also...if you have any questions about it..I'm SOOOO open about it. My mom made me hide my pregnancy and my son from the world..so I'm lashing out! Good luck babe. It's very hard.

My mother planned on keeping her son but eventually decided she couldn't provide everything he needed. Especially a loving father. It was pretty much a last minute decision for her but she never regretted it.
My aunt had a child very young and decided to keep her baby. It took almost a year for her to discover she just couldn't do it, and she ended up giving her up for adoption. I imagine that woud be WAY harder. It was different times back then for my mother and aunt though.
I had my son at 17 but was VERY fortunate to be able to provide for him a loving home and everything he needed. I was able to further my education and even go to college. It not only depends on what YOU are capable of, but of what kind of support system you will have.
I wish I had advice to give. Good luck in whatever decision you make!!

I can't imagine giving a baby up after you have had it at home for any legenth of time. Your right though it was a different time back then...

My old best friend gave her baby up when he was 6 months old. It def was very hard for her. She knows it was the right thing for her baby but I think it would have been a whole lot easier to do had she done it right away instead of stalling to decide.

whatever you decide to do, I'll support you! Adoption is amazing. My husband and I are trying to adopt! I have 4 adopted siblings. Good luck momma! Keep your head up!

Wow.. That's really crazy!!! I really can't imagine, you would have to be in a really hard place, and be a big person to make a decision like that.

im not giving my baby up but i believe if you feel you cant give him/her what they need then you should. but if its jus' b/c you dont want a baby right now but can take care of it i think thats selfish.. but its your decision! atleast its not an abortion!!   good luck. & they have a gladny center for adoption where i live and its real good. what part of tx do u live in?

good luck!!
