I mean, aren't you all using condems and are on the pill! I mean, all these pore babies... Anyways. I am fourteen and proud to say I'M NOT PREGNANT! I do want kids, but not for a long time, untill I can actually support my child.

I understand that that you are nervous about telling your parents and boyfriend but I promise, as soon as you do you will feel like a weight has been lifted. If you cant sit down with them just blurt it out and at least it will be off your chest. Nobody can tell you what to do, but listening to options and opinions of those you love or anonomously will let you make the right decision. Dont forget you are not the only one this has happend to, hundreds of girls your age around the world are falling pregnant. I really hope everything works out for you, chin up hun you will be fine xxx

Why? I mean i'm your age. I don't get it. if you know they'll be dissapointed. Think about it, why would they be dissapointed? I actually am shocked that how many people are here on this... well i don't know what this is really but whatever. I think that you should think about an abortion before talking to your parents because i'm sure the first questions they'll be asking are with who and what are you going to do. So think about it, i don't approve of abbortion. But right now all i can see in my mind is a baby in an orphanage or sitting with its grandmother while they're mom is at school. Or maybe with they're mother in some dingy apartement. I know i must sound so naive. telling you what to do, but i really want you to do the right thing. Good luck!
Oh and are you're parents religious? if so extra luck! My parents would murder me! If they're not still its always the hardest thing. (My Friend)

Well, I just lost my virginity about a week ago to my boyfriend of 7 months. I'm 14 just like you. We didn't use a condom and we didn't really thought about using one. I was suppose to have my period soon but it hasn't started yet. We are scared that I may be pregnant. He told me that if I am that he will be there for me through it all. I think you should tell your parents and hope they will support you. :) I'm scared that if I am pregnant how my family, friends, and people at school will react. But just stay strong and I know you will make it through!

reader, anonymous, writes (21 February 2010): im 14 and i think i might be pregnant,im takeing a test tommrow to see for sure but i already know i am.Me and my boyfreind steven (16 years old) have been trying for a couple months now. We really want to have a baby together and we are very excited, im just scared to tell my mom and my dad because i know they will be very dissapointed in me but i know they love me. The thing i am most worried about more than anything is my step mom...she has a daughter and she got pregnant when she was 18 and her mom (my step mom) made her get an aborition, and if my step mom tells my dad that she wants me to get an aborition i know he will listen to her, cuz he always does. i really want to have this baby, first of all because it is my first child, and second of all me and steven want this more then anything. But beside all my problems the thing i reccomend you do, is tell your parents and be stong about the whole thing, dont break (or at least try not to) tell your parents you want to have this baby. If they love you they will understand and help you and be supporitive through it all, after you tell your parents you will feel so much better and relived and it will also take a lot of the stress off, stress is not good for pregnant women. im telling you this from one 14 year old pregnant girl to another. i really hope you take my advice :) and i really hope everytnhing goes well for you and your baby. I hope your babys healthy.

Her situation is tricky as she had sex but then her mum found out somehow but is being really supportive but she is scared to tell the dad as rumours are going round the school saying that she said he raped her and he was at the young offenders intitute and everyone is really angry with her and the dad smashed her windows, so she is terrifed to tell him. With your situation, you need to stay responsible, and you never know, your parents might try and help you through this too, mabye not be happy about it, but it needs to be done.

I'm 14 and pregnant too, and i was scared as well ..
First, i told a really good friend. and she comforted me alot! and once i told her, i immediately felt better.
after that, I told the guy that got me pregnant but that didn't really make things all that better.
after that, i told my parent. I was eating supper and we were cleaning up. What i said was something like this:
"Mom,I'm pregnant. And i know you're going to be mad but i need to be responsible and I can take care of this. Talk to me when you think it over, i'm sorry and I love you"
and went to my room. Later she came in and we talked about everything and i told her the truth. She wasn't exactly happy about it but i think it could have gone worse.
I also heard that if you take a close friend with you when you say it, it's not so awkward
hope I helped,

if you wind yourself up it is just going to cause more stress.
if you would not like to get an abortion then you need to confide in a friend/teacher/family member.
if you dont then they are bound to find out when your stomach starts getting bigger.
the worst thing your mum/dad is going to do is shout and be dissapointed but they willa come around and soon help you out.
also remeber having a baby this young can effect your life and career..
i hope this helped

And its not your moms choice weather you keep the baby or not. Its your choice. And the best adivise i can give you is to not get an abortion! That baby didnt do anything to you! If you can lay down there and make the baby then you should be able to take care of it to. Dont have sex if you dont know how to deal with the consequences. But aboortion is not an option sweety! Im 14 too and i still would never get an abortion. If your not ready for the baby then your not ready for sex trust me!

All of you saying "i'm 14 and pregnant" make it seem okay.
Hunny, i know you didnt MEAN to get pregnant.. But the first thing you have to do is telll your parents. Dont even worry about the boy. Your parents are the people who have raised you for 14 years! They will know what to do. & if you dont want to tell them, tell someone close to you who you can trust.. & who you will know who will help you.

reader, anonymous, writes (28 August 2009): I am 14 and pregnant as well. When I missed my first period, I knew I was pregnant. The first person I told was my boyfriend. I am 16 weeks pregnant now. He is still in my life and he is envolved. He is supporting me and someday hopes to marry me. My advice would be to tell your mother. I told mine. She was more comforting than I thought. You have to tell her so you can get help for your baby. I was afraid my dad would make me give my baby up too, but he legally can't make me give my baby up for adoption. I live in Washington State. Laws probably vary within the States. I am not sure if your mom can legally get you an abortion if you don't want one. Do some research. Good luck.

Abortion is never the answer, it's never ok to kill a human being no matter what stage of life. Your parents love you no matter what. Maybe try talking to a counselor at school about adoption options, there are plenty of families out there just waiting for a little boy or girl. Please what ever you do don't kill this baby. Did you know he or she has a heartbeat already? How can you call say it's not a human life. Just stay strong, once you get past telling your parents, it won't be so bad. You can give the baby up, and continue on with your life. I wish you luck

Then the baby's daddy, i broke up with him about two weeks before. I told my mom through a letter left on the counter on the last day of school. She took me out of school and yelled at me and we both cried. But now everytime she goes shopping she gets pulled into the baby section and comes home with tons of stuff for him. Im now five months pregnant, and honestly, i dont regret it. Feeling him kick is the best thing in the world. Good Luck.

reader, anonymous, writes (16 July 2009): I am also 14 and me and my boyfriend had sex 5 days before my highest ovulation date. We were also messing around the day before my highest ovulation date.I start school the 27th or 28th of this month, and that is when I am also "supposed" to start my period.So much stress...I am terrified because I have been experiencing some of the symptoms.As well as last night when I threw up a few times.I have also been tired, but only because people in my family keep waking me up.A lot of girls my age on a certain side of the family got pregnant in their teens and some were my age when they got pregnant. I can't get an abortion because of religion purposes. I have a feeling my family would be greatly angered at me getting pregnant. I do not take birth control, I have no idea how to get where I need in order to obtain the pill.I know that if I am pregnant that my boyfriend will stand by me. I'm just afraid of what my family will think.And especially his, I almost got him kicked out of his house because I spent the night there because I was terrified of going home. I convinced him to stay there one more year, then he would be able to come live with me. They also told him that they didn't care what we did, as long as he didn't get me pregnant. So just remember, you are definatly not alone!!!I know you will go through much more than you can probably handle, having the child, but an abortion would be 10x the suffering you would go through. There would be something that you will never forget for the rest of your life.I suggest having the child, and if you must, put the child up for adoption.You must tell your mother, don't rush into it. Tell her in your own time, when YOU are ready. Whatever your decision is, I back you up.

reader, anonymous, writes (20 January 2009): Wow. So sorry! I was pregnant the first time I had sex too, I was only 14 as you. My at the time boyfriend told me I shouldnt get a abortion, shouldnt have it becasue his family couldnt afford childsuport but He didnt want to give it up for adoption. My mother kicked me out of the house, so i went to live with my grandmother who had a 3 bedroom home and 10 family members living there, these family members were into drugs and loud sex, as well as rude rude rude people. I didnt feel this be the best place to raise a child, so i went to live with my great aunt, she said I couldnt stay with her once I had the baby but I could stay with her tell then. I was too young to have a job or a place of my own so I did the only thing I felt I could do that was to have a abortion. I was 15 weeks pregnat when that happend and it took a long time for me to get over it, it was something I felt as if I had to do rather then wanting to do. ( I became depressed over the decision that I had made and I turned to drugs )I wasnt informed about adoption and I was clueless about it. I am now 30 years old and have 4 children with a great hubby. Looking back on my abortion and the way it effected my life I was lucky to have pulled my head out of my ass and stoped using drugs, saw a doctor and got on depression pills as well as counsling. What I would do differntly and my advise to you is to talk to proffesional people about your options with your pregnany, because it is your pregnany not your mothers. Contact a abotion clinic or look up information on the web to see how a abortion is performed and can you live with that? If you can great if you cant dont! Contack a adoption agency and find out the differnt options for adoptions. Giving up your baby dosent mean you will never see your baby again. There is this thing called open adoption find out more about it. Also go to the warefare office and talk to them about how they can help you if you decide to keep this baby. What ever you do inform yourself and be sure this is the decison that is best for you and for your unborn child, to have a child and raise it is for the rest of your life.

GOOD LUCK, and make the decsion that is right for YOU AND YOUR FUTURE!!! Sorry this is so sloppy need to get this out before you make up your mind.

I told my school nurse first because i was way to afraid to tell my mom. She always said if i got pregnant she would kick me out and look where i am. In her house. So go on and tell somebody. It's ok.

 If you know it is his for sure then you should tell him. Talk to your MOM she will know how to take care of things. You need to see a doctor right away. Pray about it because from a Mother's heart to her child is a close bond. I know because my daughter was only 14 the first time she had sex. I tried to caution her we had many talks before it happened. She didn't listen. However I loved my child. I still continued to try to impact her life by advising her about the way her life would be changed if she continued having sex.
She still didn't pay it much attention as she was quiet rebellious. At the age of 16 she had her fist child. She cried, I cried and then a baby was born. Needless to say I still loved my child as a Mother should. I helped bring that baby into this world. Her name is Destiny. She is a precious part of both our lives.
Don't underestimate the power of Love of a Mother for her child. Let her know that you need her and if you want to keep this baby ask her to help. You have to be strong so you can still go to school and take care of the baby also with a little help from Mom now and then. You have to accept that responsibility. It's all up to you to convince Mom that you can and will do it. It won't be easy and your childhood is forever changed.
God is sending an Angel into your lives what you do with your Angel is up to you and you Mom.
Blessings and may God watch over you.

Then tell your BF then tell your mom. BUT only if you want to tell them all. You can secretly have an abortion with only you or one other person knowing then, carrying on with your life. But remember you might have to tell your mom one day. But it is best to get the situation sorted out first. Their are loads of girls your age and under who have been through this. You can talk to councillors/ a friend/ a nurse/ a doctor/ your bf/ your dad/ nan anyone who will understand. (all these people probably will) It is not shameful or disgusting. It happens...you did'nt mean to get pregnant..but it happened. Don't feel embarrased. You are 14. That is old enough to make your own desicions. You can have an abortion and your doctor would not be allowed to tell your mum anything. Or if you wanted you can keep the baby. This however, means yuo have to tell your mom soon...as you will start to show. With getting the abortion you can tell her later on. If you feel you can get through this without your mom...you don't need to tell her. But if it was me...i would tell my most trusted friend and then my bf. Good luck babe xx

My baby died because I kept it secret for the whole pregnancy. My parents were very supportive after it all happend. You need to tell your mom. You will be surprised how supportive she will be. If you dont say anything, it will all end in tragedy!

You dont know how your mom will react to this news until you tell her. She maybe mad at first then she'll calm down. She wont be mad at you for the rest of your life so stop panicking. Moms are there to help and guide us and im sure your mother just wants the best for you.
Just a quick reminder
Think about all the things you would like to do! Go clubbin with your friends, meet different boys, get a wicked job that pays for all your lovely clothes for when you go out or the other choices of stayin in while all your friends are clubbin, changing nappies instead of buyin lovely clothes!??!?!? Your choice! But remember there is always a solution to everything!

 You need to tell someone. Living with this and keeping it a secret will not be good long term. This is going to be a hard challenge for you. Deciding to have sex, you accept the possibility of something happening, so you need to accept the responsibility of your decision.
If you're afraid to talk to your mom, maybe a peer counselor or school counselor can help. They can help you as far as telling your mom too. Just having an adult there, who's not directly involved, who will be thinking rationally can make a huge difference.
If you keep the baby, just remember this. Having a baby doesn't give you an excuse to give up on your dreams and goals in life. It just means you have to make some changes and alter the process in which you get there.

You decided that you were mature enough to have sex in the first place. Now it's time to demonstrate that maturity and begin dealing with the consequences of it.If you don't feel comfortable telling your mother right off the bat, then maybe you have another relative or someone else to turn to first?

Babe i seriously think telling your mum or someone older that you trust will help. so you can look through all the options you have. but if you want the baby try not to let your mum try and sway you the other way because the choice is upto you. it's your body at the end of the day

 Well, i think you should tell your boyfriend first off.
If your deffinatly sure your pregnant only you can make the decision... myself i dont belive in abortions unless for reasons like rape even then id probubaly concider adoption.
just think there are many couple out there desperate for children.
you could use foster carers.. until you know you are older and maturer.
But remember if YOU dont want an abortion dont have one.
its YOUR life.. YOUR body... YOUR baby.
take care.. x feel free to private message me x ..

 Hi there anonymous,I've recommended the following site to many people your age who find out they're pregnant. It talks about how to tell your parents, what to expect of their reaction, how to deal with them being disappointed, and help for your boyfriend, as well. It also offers help to your parents on how to deal with your pregnancy. You may want to suggest that they read the site, as well.Just remember - you do NOT have to have an abortion if you don't want to. It is YOUR decision, despite what your mother has told you. This is one decision that is NOT her's to make. Remember, you can always go through with the pregnancy and give the baby up for adoption if you don't feel as though you can keep it.And if you have questions about an abortion, talk to a DOCTOR, not your mother. A doctor will give you the facts. It sounds as though your mother has already made her decision and you don't want to be told lies just so that she makes sure you get an abortion. (Not sure how your mother is, so I'm just telling you to be extra cautious.)Here is the link:http://www.momdadimpregnant.com/Hope this helps you. Take care.

 The decision about the abortion is down to you hunni, not your mum. I would go see your doctor who you can talk about all the issues you have going through your head. They can also check everything is going ok with you and the baby.
I'm 22 and was petrified of trlling my family I was pregnant. But if you decide to keep the child then the sooner you do it the better because it isn't something you are going to be able to hide once the bump begins to show.
Talk things through with your boyfriend. Will he stand by you?

reader, anonymous, writes (30 August 2007): Tell your doctor and let her know that you don't want an abortion if that is how you feel. In the UK we have a child mental health service, which has local offices. Maybe they can help. See who you can call. Get some support so that you can not be forced. You can get an education later if you want, plenty do. I hope others will see this and realise that underage sex is a tragedy waiting to happen. Having an abortion is a BIG deal, something that can affect you for the rest of your life and change the way you feel about your children later when you have them. It is a regret that you always carry, so I am afraid that when one of the previous people advised you to go ahead and not look back they can't have know what they were talking about. Your Mum may not understand either.In other circumstances this would be a situation to celebrate. It is not the baby's fault that this is under a cloud. To move forward you definately need help from another adult. This is about how you feel, not your Mum, you may resent her for always in some way if you feel she has forced you into a termination.Good luck sweetheart and I hope that you get the help you need.

In the future, be sure to use 2 forms of birth control, one just for pregnancy (pill, IUD, etc.) and one for your health (condoms) and be sure to ask your doctor or nurse how to put a condom on correctly because that's an important part of using one.

It might be a good idea to have a dinner with both your families, together or indiviually and have both you and your boyfriend break the news to your parents. Do you want to get an abortion? Do no let your mom make you get an abortion if you dont want to. Its not her decision, its yours. The longer you wait, the less options you will have. The converstations you are about to have could possibly be the hardest you will ever have to have in your lifetime but you will get through this. Everything happens for a reason. Good luck darling.. let me know how it goes
