Here's some advice..get some contraception!! Jesus, the amount of girls that come here and say 'we don't use contraception, could i be pregnant?' is ridiculous. Being a teen parent is HARD!!

Maybe you should start using contraception? Babies aren't a walk in the park, especially when you're still so young. If you aren't ready, you should actively be trying to prevent pregnancy, not leaving it to chance. Also the withdrawl method isn't 100% effective. If you're embarrassed to ask for contraceptives in the chemist, get you're mum to get you some, rather than her stocking up on pregnancy tests. Sorry if this sounds harsh. But it's abit irresponsible since you say you're not ready.

If you arent trying, dont use the withdrawal method. To be honest there is no method about it - you can still get pregnant.

Your mom sounds helpful but you guys should really be using condoms or something.

if youre embarrassed to ask for contraceptives wait until you have to walk into an antenatal clinic and sit with a roomful of 30 year olds glaring you down because of your age? or throwing up every day, getting terrible hair and skin, losing control of your bladder and excess gas!!
and then labour.. lol
just something to think on xx

I must say it definately is NOT fun!
As much as I will love my son, if I could redo it, I definately would have taken more initiative with contraceptives. Yes, I was on birth control when I concieved, however there was more that I could have done.

This pregnancy has been miserable for me...and if you're too embarassed to go buy some condoms, then you'll definately be too embarassed to go to the doctor!

Yeh i have to agree, im rlly sorry and i dont mean to be patronising but the withdrawal method is NOT an effective form of contraception. And being young your most likely incredibly fertile. If you dont want to get pregnant then u need to use contraception. And if u dont want to use contraception (dare i say it) dont have sex!
Lol sorry but sticking on a condom or taking a pill everyday is way easier than labour...
Good luck with whatever the outcome xxx
