15 year old pregnant
by: Summer H. on Thu, Apr 16 2009

Im 15 years old and pregnant. I have a boyfriend that is well committed to my pregnancy. Most boys wouldnt be. Im a freshmen. Im only in the 9th grade, and having a baby. Im due september 11th and am not to thrilled. My boyfriend is a senior and will graduate this year. He has a paying job anf is now working. He is well devoted to my pregnanycy. Im going to finish school and go to college to become a pharmacist. Im going to show my little girl that even though i waas pregnant with her that i made a lot of risks for her and that you can still mak it if you believe.

Me and my boyfriend you would have never expected to have a daughter coming. We were going to church helping the local church with honless people and learning new faith. But one day it happened. It happened kind of dast and we werent pressured. We used a condom and i was on birth control but look at me now. Im 4 months pregnant. If i had to go back i would change it and never would have been in that situatiob, but i dont regret it. not one bit. I planned on marrying my boyfriend when i grew up. He had already told me that he wanted to be with me forever. I realized that i have to face the facts. After i found out i was pregnant, everyone started downing me and saying all this junk about me. I didnt like it but i had to deal with it.

My mom gave me a hard time. She didnt accept me at first but i guess i just had to live with it. My boyfriends parents werent to thrilled but they accepted it. After a month my mom started to accept my decision. When i found out i was pregnant it seemed sop much harder than when i wasnt like everything was pressuring me. To do good in school, to keep the relationship with my boyfriend and my mom. My mom was the one that i was most worried about. Her feelings got hurt when she found out that i was because she never thought that i would do anything like that. Now, i hear my name in everyones mouth. Everytime i turn around did you know that that girl is pregnant, people i didnt even know. It hurts but they’re not going to be in my future so why should i care. Then I got to thinking about how was the future going to be. Would me and my boyfriend still be together? How would I take care of the baby if he left? The only thing i knew was that he was there for me and is there for me now.

The advice i would give to other teenagers that are sexually active is, dont have sex unless you know that they’ll be there for you. Even thought mine is still here dont mean that he’ll be there when i need him the most. I think the only reason that we did it was because everyone thought we were when we werent. Everyone thought that we did it because of the notes that we used to write that now that i think about it did sound like we were but we were talking about somethin totally different. Even though i am pregnant i guess you could say that im happy. Theres no since in being sad when it was your choice. Im havin a little girl and am getting prepared to be a teen mother with three more yearss of school left and college with a boyfriend that has hopes of going to college. I know that its going to be harder but i have to accept it. After all it was me and him that did it how could i get mad at anyone else.

I know that girls say that when their pregnant that they’re going to finish school but i am. Im going to be someone and if you do get pregnant dont give up on your dreams im still going after mine. Ive always talked about how i was going to be a role model for my kid, but back then i wasnt planning to be pregnant. When my daughter grows up and realizes of all i have risked for her i think ill be her biggest role model of all. But girls dont give it up unless your married, then he’ll be stuck with you, just kidding but for real hold on to your body, its one thing that you’ll never get back.
