Who can help me Questions about bein prego?

Okay im sixteen and I believe im pregnant I am a week and 3 days late. I took four tests and im pretty sure they were positive. I dont know wether to tell my parents or not. When I thought I was prego before they flipped out compleatly. And at that time I wasnt using protection. But now I used comdoms. and im scared my parents wont be understanding about the situation. I would like to move out and be on my own when I have this kid so I know how much money and stuff im gonna spend. my parents wont let me until I graduate or get married. And I would get married but the thing is my boyfriend is married. And the only reason he married this other girl is because she was pregnant but she lost the baby and he told her the reson he married her. So they are no longer together but he dont have the money to get a divorce at this time. I know if he dont have the money for divorce he wont have money for a kid. but the thing is he’s getting a new job that pays really good. And should I just save money, get his divorce and hide my pregnancy from my parents? Im about to turn 17 this month and he is 20. But we,ve known each other for 3 years going on 4 and weve been dating for a while about a year. I dont know what to do HELP PLEASE!!!

Answer #1

Lol. Right. You were pregnant before but now you want them to understand? And you’re having a baby with a married boyfriend? Not to mention, depending on state laws, he could go to jail. Alright, I’ll spare you the lecture on how the last thing a poor helpless infant needs is an immature, irresponsible, selfish parent. Your parents have to know because guess what, you need medical check ups for the sake of the fetus. So, suck it up, grow up, and tell your parents. Because you know what, this isnt about you any more.

I agree completely with ty. You played with fire in the past and thought you were pregnant, but apparently even though you lucked out that time, you didn’t learn enough to keep yourself from getting pregnant this time. First, get a pregnancy test that clearly says ‘positive’ or ‘negative’ and find out for sure if you are pregnant. If you are, call a gynecologist or your family doctor and schedule an appointment for a blood test and check up and be sure to tell them any prescription medications you take. If you smoke or drink or do any kind of drugs, quit immediately. Forget about hiding your pregnancy from your parents, moving out or getting married. You’re going to have to grow up real fast and put all those childish ideas out of your head. Like ty said, this isn’t about you anymore. This is about you doing what is best for your baby. Nothing about it is going to be easy but you have to step up and handle the situation. Your married boyfriend may or may not be supportive in any way. If he can’t afford a divorce, how do you think he is going to be able to afford to help you raise a baby? And that’s if he really does even want a divorce and isn’t just feeding you lines of bull to keep you around when he gets mad at his wife. You’re sixteen years old! What are you doing with a 20 year old married man, anyways?! If he doesn’t go to jail for getting you pregnant in the first place, as long as he keeps a job, he will be ordered to pay you some form of child support, but if he doesn’t make much money, you won’t receive much money. The most realistic options you have are to keep the baby and plan on depending on your family for a lot of support, or adoption. If you keep the baby, you’ll most likely be living with your parents for a long time while you finish high school or get your GED if remaining in school no longer becomes possible. You may even choose to do some type of additional schooling after that so you can get a good paying job to support yourself and your child. Again, your boyfriend may or may not be a part of this child’s life and you have to be ready to accept that. Adoption may be an option for you to consider. If you’d like to look into it, you can start with this website http://www.theadoptionguide.com/process/ to answer some of your questions and get a general idea of what it is. When you go to the doctor, they’ll be able to give you more information and set you up with an adoption counselor. Your last and more controversial choice is abortion. I’m personally pro-choice and I think every woman should have the option available, but I don’t think it’s the easy way out. Many woman wouldn’t even consider it and many who do opt for abortion suffer with regret and ‘what if’s’ for the rest of their lives, or feel they were talked into that choice by family or the father of the baby. Basically, you have a lot of choices to make, and none of them are easy. What may be the right choice for your friend, may not be the right choice for you. What your mom thinks you should do, may not be what you think you should do. Just keep in mind, no matter what choice you make, this choice will effect the rest of your life.

Answer #3

I agree, the best thing for you to do is to tell your parents. It might be hard to build up the courage because you know you’re gonna get scolded but you know what? in the end the only people that are really gonna care about you and your baby are your parents. And no matter how mad they can get, they’re not gonna let leave you alone. Good luck.

Answer #4

tell your parents. they can help you. wheather they flip out or not you want a healthy mother daughter relationship! they can help you do whats best for the baby. I think you should wait a month and continue tking pregnancy tests until your positive then tell your parents. start watching out with sports and fooods even tough its early!
