PLease don't think of a baby as punishment, it's a precious gift and will love you unconditonally for the rest of it's life as i'm sure you will too, it will be tough at times but with support i'm sure it will be a wonderful experience honey, cherish every second you have with your LO xxx

I was 14 when I had sex for the first time and like you, my first time was just enough to conceive my little girl. That was almost 5 years ago and now I'm engaged and pregnant with number 2, my baby boy I thought about it all the time, why something like that would have happened the first time. I love my daughter but I always questioned why it happened to me and none of my friends. God just has different plans for different people, and the funny thing is, if I had never had my daughter, I would have never met my fiance, and my life would have been very different than it is now. I wish you all the best. And even though you're 13, sounds like you have alot of support from your mom and thats all that you really need, because thats all I really had. Once you actually have your baby, you'll wonder how you could have ever lived without them to begin with. They are truly blessings...

Oh, and don't worry about the father. If he doesn't want to be there, thats his decision (or his parents' decision), but no one ever said that you couldn't be happy with someone else, just because someone else fathered your child. It will all work out

Good luck with your pregnancy hun.

Its good that your getting all the support you can off your mom.. it will be a great help.

Just think yourself lucky that you have actually concieved and going to bring up and make a babys life.. many people don't have that opportunity.

We're all here if you need help.

Theres soo many people trying for kids, I dont think its fair you called it a punishment. A baby is gift from God. The most precious gift you could ever recieve. Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy and your new life with your baby x

When we were 14 a really good friend of mine got pregnant. She felt like she was being punished as well, because like you, she had only done anyone ONCE with one guy. But, that little boy is the very best thing that has ever happened to her. I don't think she'd change anything for the entire world. Her entire life revolves around him. She is the very best mom I know. She's now 20 and just had her second baby(with a different guy, but this guy has taken in Zach like his own son), also a boy.

Cheer up, because although you may feel like this is the worst possible thing that has ever happened to you, it could very well be the best if you let it

You're not being punished! This is a gift and it sounds like you have alot of support from your mum. All the best! x

I dont know what advise I can give, 13 is young and I have a 13 year old daughter myself. But I am sending you the biggest ((((HUG))) ever and will tell you that you will be okay, and you will love and be loved by that child sooo much. And I am happy that you have a good releationship with your mom. I like to think if my daughter ever experienced what you are I would support her and love so she knew she could count on me.

I want to wish you a congratulations sweetheart, and welcome to the wonderful world of motherhood! There is no love like the love you will feel for your child.

Take care of yourslef and remember everyone here so full of information whatever you need to ask

I agree with all above. This is not a punishment. A baby is a miracle and a gift. Congratulations! I wish you nothing but the best! Glad that you have your mom as a support system.
