You might feel like that but you should think about the baby. If your life is going down hill then that baby just might have a crappy life. You should wait until you're older and you can give it a better life.

I'm pregnant but a little older than you.  Although i'm looking forward to being a mum, i know that this is going to be so hard.  I'll miss out on so many opportunities.  Not that im not happy but i do wish i was older.  Sometimes people can be really nasty too, they stare at my bump and automatically think i sleep around and that i'm a waster which isn't true if they could just take some time to get to know me.  I'm not saying you wouldn't make a good mum because those mother insticts are natural but you should wait until you are finacially stable and have a good living.  You have no idea how hard it is if your not.

This is actually a common feeling in young girls. When I was 15 I felt just like this and I told my current boyfriend that I couldn't get pregnant. He believed me of course so we decided to try and see what happens. I got pregnant a year later when I was 16. I was scared and very emotional. The pain I felt made me never want to get pregnant again. Just picture the most painful thing ever. Now picture that pain in your stomach and your back at the same time. I went through hell and I don't think you really want to go through with this decision. It took me a while to feel love for my baby because in a way I blamed her for the pain. I know now its just the pain of child birth but I'm telling you its not worth going through alone. Just wait for that right guy to come along. Make sure its right and then decide to have a baby and make sure its a decision you both make together. I can't stop you from doing what you want to do but I want to let you know the real deal first hand how much you will go through having a baby alone. If you are feeling this down I think maybe counseling will be your best bet. I know thats not the first thing anybody wants to do but its the best thing. I wish you luck and I hope you start to feel better soon.

16 is still young. Do you have an income to provide everything and a roof over their kid. Would you be able to afford day care for the baby when you go to work. Can you finish your education? Cause now a days you can go anywhere without education.
