What would you do?

posted 23rd Jul
Truth is I dont know what to do, my boyfriend is with whatever I want and he will support me throught it but the thing is my family just found out in December that I was having sex and they also found out that I got an abortion but now im pregnant again and I dont know what to do.I just finished high school and im going to be starting college in september. I am also currently working but I dont want to work around here pregnant because my mother works for the company and she would be so mad if I told her I was pregnant because she was a teenage mother her self with me and doesnt want me to go through what she went through. I understand her but the thing is I know if I work hard and do what I have to do, I will be able to but up my part for the baby and so will my boyfriend, I just know if this is the right time.What would you do if you were in my shoes?

i deff wouldnt get an abortion..im really against ending a life..but i would keep it an if your bf is willing to help then thats a plus..you need to make your own mistakes an your mom if not now later on will realize that.

Just tell your mom. Shes been through it, she'll probably take it alot better than you expect, and you will feel alot better after its out in the open

I think you should have gotten on BC after the first. But I got pregnant right out of high school and the first month I just kept saying I was going to have an abortion. Then one day I changed my mind and decided I was irresponsible to get pregnant that I should do whatever needed to take care of the baby. 5 years later I am sooo glad Ikept my baby. It made life harder I did my associates degree and now I am almost done with my Bachelors degree. Raising kids is a hard and expensive job but well worth it!

I think you should keep your baby personally but of couse thats your choice in the end. Your mother will be upset of course but then she will get over it.
You have a job, support from your boyfriend and are 18 so your an adult. I think you will be fine hun.

Good luck!

yup, I'm 16 and I told my mom right after I found out, she was mad at first but now shes happy. Telling her seemed like the hardest part at the time though. I had to fight with her constantly because she wanted me to get an abortion so bad. But eventualy theyve all got to get over it

Just sit her down and explain to her that you realy need her support and understanding, and that getting mad or yelling won't change anything. Then Just tell her. If you haven't decided on if your gonna keep it when you tell her, then maybe she can talk with you and help you decide, but don't let her affect your decision to much. Its up to you, and only you! Good Luck!!!

If you can't tell her buy a card and write it in there or something. She may be disappointed at first (And maybe even disappointed in herself thinking she messed up on raising you because you got pregnant) but believe me after she gets used to it and sinks in a bit she will probably be happy and start buying baby stuff. I thought my mom was going to kill me and she was soo happy to become a grandma. And she hated my babies dad as well but never said anything negative about him or really never mentioned him at all.

haha, thats good, my boyfriends mom was realy happy, and my grandparents. So that atleast made me feel better. I hate when people try to talk down to me and call me irresponsible, because the way I see it, this is me taking responsibility for my actions. Some people just don't get that!

I only told my best friend I was pregnant I didn't want anyone to know not even the father until I had decided on my own what I was going to do. I didn't want anyones opinion to affect my decision because it would be me taking care of the child for 18 years or me getting an abortion or me giving the child up for adoption.
