re: At 5 weeks preggo????????

Quoting hbaby:“ Well I like your opinions. The last thread had girls calling me a dumbass and all this other stuff ... [snip!] ... when I speak but Im very opinionated. You should share your voice, I think you are honest and upfront. And I appreciate that!”

I have spoken my piece before. That's how I know how it is received by most teen mothers. MOST teenagers are still in the "I'm always right and I know everything" frame of mind. So, when you give them the cold hard reality, the truth of life, they are not accepting of it. So, I just sort of avoid it at best.

I look at it this way, I would NEVER tell my daughter it was okay to be pregnant that young. I would never want it for her, or even for my boys. That being the case, obviously I wouldn't have wanted it for me were I able to go back.

See I didn't mean to. I was on BC, butI couldn't get an abortion. I am prolife and would fight to the death to defend myself on that.  
I'll admit, if I'm right or am right in my opinion I won't let anyone talk me down out of it. I've had to be headstrong my whole life so it kind of sticks. But yes, I hate when 13 year old years who have never even had sex try to tell me what to do in my pregnancy! It's THEEE most irritating thing.

I won't want it for my children either.

I wasn't on birth control. I had just started having sex with my now husband. I was seventeen. I was barely past being a virgin when low and behold I was pregnant. I am completely prochoice, but having an abortion was not something I could get myself to do. Richard was in college and I was finishing up high school. We figured we could do it.

And we HAVE done it. With a lot of time, effort, and buttloads of struggle, we've made it really far. But this is where we should have been in life when we started having children .We shouldn't have taken our baby along for the ride. It would have made reaching these goals far easier and way faster. Do I regret not aborting? Absolutely not. Brandon is a great kid and extremely intelligent. Do I wish I would have put it off? Done something to prevent it? Absolutely. It was immature and completely stupid of me not to fully protect myself.

I will not stand up, though, and be proud that I was a teen mother. I feel a lot of shame in myself for not being able to be more grown up about sex.

See I know what you mean but I'm not going to shun myself in shame. I took all the precautions. I was even boxing and training horses.I mean, my chances were like .5 in a million. But it happened, and it saved my life. God must have had someone who needed a mommy (:

There is no shame on your part, though. You WERE preventing it. You did what you could to keep from getting pregnant. It just happened. For me, there is a sense of shame because I could have and didn't. That's on me.

Well sounds like youre a good mom though, you learned your lesson as did I. Good look, and PT me.

Quoting Sarah-Addisons mommy:“ My friend took the abortion pill. She said it was absolutely horrible. I suggest adoption... but whatever.”

why did she say it was horrible?? what happened??

Quoting Hilary86:“ why did she say it was horrible?? what happened??”

It causes you to miscarry. Google it, it will tell you all about it.

Hey, have you seen the OP's follow up to this???

Quoting *Wicked Mama*:“ Hey, have you seen the OP's follow up to this???”

Nope.   Is there one???? *off to search*

Quoting ♥ B ♥:“ Nope.   Is there one???? *off to search*”

Yep.

Quoting *Wicked Mama*:“ Yep.”

Well then.   I feel sorry for her because she's upset, but well... I don't really have anything to say.

Quoting ♥ B ♥:“ Well then.   I feel sorry for her because she's upset, but well... I don't really have anything to say.”

I feel bad because she regrets her choice. I'm aggravated because she changed her story :-\ Is that wrong?

Quoting *Wicked Mama*:“ I feel bad because she regrets her choice. I'm aggravated because she changed her story :-\ Is that wrong?”

What do you mean changed her story? I noticed that she said she was getting a pill, and then started talking about pain and shit. I know from reading about the RU486 that they give you the pill and send you home to take the second one about 6 or 12 hours later.

Oh, maybe she rewrote it or something. On there before she said she was made to have the abortion because of her parents. In here she said she knew she couldn't handle another child and something about her baby's father.
