I think you're going to have to be brave and just sit down and tell your mum what's going on. I know it won't be nice, and you will be a bit scared telling her, and yes, she will probably go mad initially, and call you stupid, but she will calm down. And once she calms down, she will help you deal with the problem. You're quite early in the pregnancy, so that's good, you have quite a few options open to you. But it's way too complex and emotionally demanding to try and work through it alone, especially when you're 16. Hopefully, you and your mum and your Dr can all sit together, and talk through a few things/options open to you. With their support, you should be able to work out what the best way forward FOR YOU is going to be. A baby is a huge commitment - for years and years. It is not only a financial commitment, but an emotional one as well. No longer is it just you, there's someone else to worry about, to feed, to clothe, to protect, to educate. If you're up to, ready and committed to doing this, is one of the things you need to talk about, and ascertain. Good luck, and I am sure once you have your mum on side, things will be a lot easier to sort out.

abort it. i've seen you around. not mature enough. 
And I have seen you too, not once saying a nice thing, not once being a decent human fucking being. Why don't you fucking realize that you don't know me, and couldn't possibly know ANYONE simply through a computer idiot.

you should get pregnant, it'll give you an excuse to do something besides beg your parents to hang out with your boyfriend.

if i were you i would abort it, but it's entirely your decision, but just know that no one would hate you for getting an abortion, and at the end of the day you have to look after you, and if this baby will reduce your life happiness and such, then do the right thing. if you are less happy when you have the baby then that will result in affecting the baby. on another note, telling your mum would be hard, but i suggest just sitting down with her and having a heart to heart. she went through the same thing when she found out about you.. just probably not at such a young age. i'm sure she will understand and help you through this. if you decide to keep the baby, there are always places like planned parenthood to talk to about it and get advice. don't let other people pressure you into keeping it or aborting it, make your decision yourself. also remember you can also have it and give it up for adoption, but i think that might be harder to live with, knowing there is a kid out there who doesn't know who it's biological parents are, but i guess it isn't the end of the world, other people have been through it. hope that helped a little. feel free to pm me if you would like to talk about it a lot of my friends have gone through this :) EDIT: fuck sorry i keep misspelling things Post edited at 12:05 am on Nov. 18, 2008 by roflfuckyou

generally they don't give bc until after you have a test to make sure you are not pregnant and then they tell you to wait until after your next period. So are you telling us you got tested, where not pregnant, got knocked up, had a period and then started the pill?

I'm sorry! I am not a mother but I know if I were to get pregnant I wouldn't be able to get an abortion (though I certainly do not look down on those that do get one!). If you feel it is something you are unsure on/will regret then it could be the biggest mistake you will ever make. Are you dating the guy? Do you think he would stick by you if you choose to keep it? I definitely think speaking to your mum may help you. You are really young but plenty of other girls have kids at that age and cope fine. Whatever you decide, will hopefully be the best decision for you!

Take your time to really seriously consider the decision of what to do with your child. In my personal opinion, I do not believe you should have this child. However, if you do choose to have an abortion, please make sure it's something that you do want and not just something you did out of desperation.

I'm not a teen mother but. I know you are only about 16, I think. I know I could never live with myself if I had an abortion, I also know I would not be able to have the child and then give it up. You have to think about what is best for you right now, and what would be best for the child. It is a hard decision to make but it is one you will have to make. A lot of girls get pregnant when they are young, and have the child and raise it just fine, a lot of girls get pregnant when they are young and have an abortion and go on with life, some regret it. Some have children and give them up for adoption and never look back. I have been in this situation before, luckily I miscarried and never had to make the decision. If you decide to have this child would you have help from your boyfriend, his family, your family, and friends. You are not the only one responsible for brining the child up, maybe your mom will be mad, but she will get over it. I hope I helped even a little bit, I know this is shocking news to you, but everything will work out in the end, it always does, you will be able to make it work, no matter what you decide to do. Edit: Are you positive you are pregnant? If you aren't 100% positive I wouldn't tell anyone until you are. 
I am glad you can understand. I don't want it. I mean, maybe later in life, but not now. I can't abort it, I have already been on the verge of killing myself and honest to god, that would push me over the edge. I can't give it up for adoption. I just can't. Yeah everyone is being supportive, that still doesn't change the fact I am scared and nervous, and fuck I just wish I was hit by a car or something so it would save me the trouble. I am 100% sure. I took 3 tests, 2 at home, both were positive, and 1 at Planned Parenthood. I even have already sceduled a prenatal doctor visit for Dec. 12. I have been reading up, I quit smoking, and been taking my prenatal vitamins.
