Hiya everyone
I'm 17 and I've just found out I'm pregnant.
I really really don't know what to do. I really don't feel old enough or ready to be a mum, but I hate the idea of a termination and I don't think I could go through it all just to give my baby away.
My boyfriend says he will support me whatever I decide, but I know that my mum and my big brother will go mad at both of us. I just feel so alone right now, could really use some support. Any advice to help me decide what to do? I just can't get my head around it at the moment.
Thanks

I know EXACTLY how you feel....I am 16 years old and 7 weeks pregnant. I know that I could never have an abortion so I want to keep my baby. I haven't told my mom that I'm pregnant yet....my mom and dad are divorced and I don't see my dad. My aunt is going to help me tell my mom tomorrow. I don't think she will be mad but she will really be disappointed. If you want someone to talk to, I have Yahoo Messenger.....my name is.....imcarrie69@yahoo.com
If you can't have an abortion or put your baby up for adoption then it sounds to me like you've decided. All you have to do now is get up the courage to tell people. It's hard, I've been there. I'm eighteen. Sure people were disappointed but they get over it. That's a baby inside of you. If it's a part of you it's part of your mum and dad too. They'll understand. These things happen.
I'm 16 and almost 18 weeks pregnant. I was really scared when I found out and I still am. I knew I couldn't have an abortion and I didn't think there was anyway to give up my baby. My cousin helped me tell my parents. They were disappointed but they weren't furious. There were a lot of factors but I made the decision to come and live with my cousin. I'm getting really excited about my baby. It's so amazing to have another person growing inside of you. You need to make the best decision for you and your baby. Not others. Good luck.
hey, im 19, and just had my third lol, all to same daddy, but we were still scared of telling our parents each time lol. It'll be easy once you start to pluck up the courage, i think in your mind, youve made your decision, and by joiing a forum it shows all you need is a little support and help, which people on here can give to you. Just be strong and let them know, if you want this child, dont let any one tell yu otherwise.
Hiya
Thanks so much for all ur comments, its definitely helped me feel a bit better about all of this and realise how much support there is out there. I think I just needed some time for myself to think about what has happened and what's going to happen.
After thinking a lot and talking about it with my boyfriend, we've decided that we both want to keep the baby. Now I just have to tell my mum and my brother. I know that they're going to be dissapointed, but hopefully it'll be ok. I don't see my dad that much (about four or five times a year) but obviosly I'm going to have to tell him he's going to be a grandad! I'm not really sure how he's going to react, I guess I'll find out though.
Any tips on how to tell parents?? How did u guys tell yours?
Thanks
Ellianna
