i agree with what chryl said, im not going to pretend to you thats its all like a fairytale that you and your boyfriend and your child will live happily ever after, its going to be really hard work!! there will be times when you just want to scream!! but its probably the most important thing you will ever do in your life and to second what cheryl said just really enjoy your baby,....im on my 3rd child and still have lots to learn but if theres ever anything you need to ask or not sure of, or just need someone to talk too then contact me anytime at [email protected] you have a supportive family around you both??

Hey there, well being 15 and pregnant is not an ideal situation, but you take what life gives you, being a mom means alot of growing up and real quickly. I was 17 when i got pregnant with my first and it was the most terrifing thing i had ever gone through. my husband(boyfriend at the time)stood by me through it all, but there are going to be so many things that you and your b/f have never thaught about talking about and most likely you guys wont like each other all the time, but STICK TOGETHER. No matter what baby is number one, and you need to look at it's best interests no matter what. things happen for a reason and i hope and pray that you have a strong and very helpful support system. and when you have this baby its YOURS, Not your parents, there are going to be so many things kids your age are doing and you are going to miss out, dont resent your baby. If you dont understand the things i am saying to you right now, ask any other teen mom and they will tell you the same thing and one day you will be saying this to another teen mom. you are in my thaughts. you can e-mail me if you need any more advice. i will be honest with you.

p.s. in the end my daughter and my baby on the way are the best thing that ever happened to me and my husband!

omg...why do you want a baby so young? i mean, that is going to be hard. you still have all this school to finish, whos gonns pay for a babysitter, or whos going to watch him/her? yes, the baby comes first..always, but you still have to make a future for yourself to make a future for that baby. please take this into consideration and know that its going to be hard. im 18 and this was my year to go to college..cant do that now, at least not this year. good luck and best wishes

well, if you both wanted a pregnancy then congratulations cause your wish came true. I am going to be a mom for the first time too and i need some advise myself.First of all why do they count from your last period . I want a clear explanation i can understand. Now about the advise like cheryl said a baby is a gift from god. Try to love him and care for him. I mostly ask god to help and guide me to be a good mother. Don't let anybody tell you stuff about your baby. My family has insulted me but God and my unborn baby give me strengh to face them. I will try my best to stand strong against them or anyone. Just remember be strong, never give up and keep faith in God and yourself cause you can do it.

I understand that having a baby is exciting. At this point in your life you are so young, but at this point young or not you have a personal responsibility that you need to take of. I hope that you will have alot of support from your family as it is so hard at times to take care of a baby and yourself. I really stress that you should continue your education if you can...this is the tool to ensuring success. Perhaps after this baby is born you may want to seek out a birthcontrol that is suitable. The cost of raising children is quite high.

I work with single moms that have been your age when they have their first child and I have seen many success stories. I think that if I asked them if they waited they would say yes...but they say they would not change the things that have happened, as they love their children. This is totally understandable. The single moms say that they wished they could have finished school when they were in school the first time, as it only gets harder with children.

You should feel the joy that all women should feel when they become pregnant but you need to start thinking of how you will support you and your baby. (Education is also important for your boyfriend too.) Good luck to you both.
