Dear lostnconfused, my heart aches for you. If you don’t want an abortion, I understand.

First, you are going to have to confirm your pregnancy. Get a home pregnancy test kit at a drug store and follow the directions. You might just have gotten a (very bad) scare. And also have found out that your boy friend is a * whatever.

Assuming you are pregnant, you are going to need your parents support if at all possible. Remember that they love you and will support you. You will need to take care of yourSELVES, because you will be caring for two lives now. See your doctor, health clinic, or Planned Parenthood.

You will have to think about whether to give up the baby for adoption, or raise it yourself. If you do raise the baby, remember that the father of the child has a financial legal responsibility to the child. It can’t be your concern about ruining the dreams of your EX-boyfriend. He sure didn’t worry enough about you to get a $2.00 condom.

I really hope everything turns out okay for you. Good Luck !!!

You said that you don’t believe in abortions, so I would not recommend going to see Planned Parenthood. They are in the bussiness of recommending abortion patients, so they might care more about the $ than your beliefs.

Good Luck

Answer #3

Dear lost’n’confused,

I do feel for you.  Get a home pregancy test to make sure.  It would probably be easier to tell your boyfriend and then try telling your parents.  They love you and they should accept what has happen.  If you can't take care of the baby put it up for adoption.  Your boyfriend is the father and he can't dein that.  I hope everything goes well.
Answer #4

He said he’s falling out of love with you because he never really loved you. Consider yourself used. You shouldn’t have sex that young anyway. You’re still just a kid yourself and now you’re having a kid. What can you do really?And next time you get a boyfriend, don’t have sex with him within the first few months of dating. Have sex with him within the first few days of marriage. That’s the smarter choice.

What exactly did you mean, ‘’what should I do’’?

I don’t get that. What CAN you do? Have the baby is all you can do. And maybe (if you don;’t want the responsibility of a baby) you could give the baby up for adoption and ask for visitation rights.
