i really hope so to..... i just want to shake her an tell her everythings going to be okay.... its going to happen weather it be now on later in life... =]

My very first pregnancy I've ever had was when I was 14. I was raped and even though I used the morning after pill and got periods regularly, I got sick and went to the doctor to find out that about 20 weeks later, the plan B pill didn't work and I was pregnant!

The guy had been an ex who raped me, and even though we were broken up, I wanted to keep the baby. But at 14 I couldn't take care of a baby myself.
I had to tell my parents. They were hurt and very mad that I wanted to keep the baby.
They ended up practically forcing me to give my baby up for adoption.

Now here I am almost 6 years later and after 3 MCs, I have a sticky bean. My parents couldn't be happier!

I know it's not ideal with what you all are going through, but I know how my parents would have acted like if I had gotten pregnant accidentally with a boyfriend at a young age.

im sorry for what you went through nichola xx

It's quite alright. I don't think of it as a bad thing at all! It has totally made me a stronger person. It gave me motivation when I couldn't get pregnant this past year. My motivation was that I had already had a successful pregnancy, why not another one?

Plus there is a family with a beautiful little 6 year old girl somewhere who wouldn't have her if not for me!

what a wonderful way to look at it adoption is an amazing thing!

When me and my OH's family Found out i was pregnant at 18 it was not a happy thing, my Oh's mom was very Mean she yelled at me told me i should think of other options other then keeping my baby , plus she asked if the baby was even her sons , as for his dad , he didnt talk to me til i was 8 months pregnant. then when she was born he called his dad to tell her she was born and she was a Girl and his responce was thats nice. could of shot the man. As for my family my mom wasnt happy about it , my dad was really supportive. my sister softened the Blow as she had her daughter not even a month after we told my parents. Now all my daughters Grandparents Love her to DEATH , shes so spoiled by them

That's such a lovely way to think about it

Huge for DailyMail and all of the others who's parents have reacted in such an extreme way, and a very special for Nicola - you have given someone such a precious gift

It always upsets me to read threads like this Yes I was a little disappointed when Tattie first told me, but then I did some research, found my way here and realised very quickly that having a baby at a young age didn't mean that she wouldn't be able to achieve whatever she wanted to out of life

I just don't understand parents who get angry and try to force what THEY want onto their pregnant daughters... I know they probably mean well and that most will come around, but I see it as a rejection and, personally, I would NEVER want any of my kids to feel that I was rejecting them... it would kill the trust between us and I couldn't live with that

I grew up with a mother who criticised everything I ever did or said - nothing was ever good enough for her, so I have raised my kids differently and they know that I totally accept and love them warts and all and that as long as I draw breath I will be there for them.

Surely that is what being a parent is all about? They aren't my puppets for me to dictate what they do - they are individuals who have the right to live life as they please (as long as that doesn't involve harming others) and to be loved and nurtured by their Mum, whatever paths they choose.... that's my job - the job I took on when I gave birth to them and, for me at least, that's not a job that any mother should turn her back on

Sorry - that turned into a bit of a rant It's just something that I feel really strongly about.

I am 18, my mum has always said to me... be careful use protection dont be silly... but if i ever did fall pregnant she would stick by me with any decision that i made. So comes the day.... mum im pregnant... she said ok... well its your decision what you decide.. i said i just cant get rid... she said okay... we will deal with it, whats happened has happened... im 15 weeks now, mum n dad are both over the moon for me and partner now.

It is horrible being at such a young age and not having the support you really need off of parents, its not the end of the world as mum would say to me.
