Is there a reason you haven't taken a pregnancy test? You're now five and a half months late. If you ARE pregnant, you need prenatal care! And if you're NOT pregnant, there's something else going on with your body that isn't healthy or normal. One way or another, you need to see a doctor.

I understand you're probably scared, but you need to take a test. If you don't want to tell your parents (although you really should), look in the phone book for a pregnancy testing center, or ask your school nurse for a test. Or ask a friend's mom to help you get to a testing center. They'll test you for free and will not tell your parents.

Don't put this off any longer. Ignoring this will NOT make it go away, I promise you. Get yourself tested immediately.

Also, if you ARE pregnant, you won't be able to hide it from your parents much longer. You're going to get very, very big, and one day you'll go into labor and push a baby out. They're going to know one way or another... it's better that they hear this from you instead of finding out later.

It's going to be hard, and they'll probably be upset... but you need to tell them. Tell your mother that you've gone five months without a period and that you think you're pregnant, and ask her to help you. Trust me, you're going to need people to help you with this. Don't do this alone.

It doesn't matter what I think your chances are. You're beyond that. You need to know for certain. You've waited entirely too long already to find out whether you are or not.

You need to sit your mother down. You need to MAKE her listen to you. Do you understand that you need medical attention if you're almost 6 months pregnant? Your baby deserves prenatal care. And at 14 years old, your body isn't 100% ready to give birth. Your pregnancy might be classified as high risk. You need ultrasounds to precisely date the pregnancy, and you need to be closely monitored by a doctor or midwife.

Your parents need to know. Keeping this a secret isn't an option. Either they threaten to kick you out now, or you wait until you give birth to a baby who might be sick because you never got treatment and they kick you and your BABY out later. Your parents might not even kick you out. They probably won't be thrilled, but they probably WILL help you.

If you're pregnant, you're going to be somebody's mother. Be a strong mother for your baby and do the right thing. Take a deep breath and tell your parents. Get proper medical care. You need to be brave and do this. You're not a little kid who has the luxury of being scared anymore. You need to step up and become the mother your baby needs you to be.

Tell your parents. Get tested. And if you're not pregnant, have your mother get you on birth control.

reply to the last post: at the end of the day she has had sex at 14 years old and lets face it shes not the only or last girl to have sex at that age, and she is just one of many to get pregnant.Looking at the date it was posted (25may2008) by now she is a mum and hope she is getting on well looking after her child or how everway things turned out and hope she is happy.

Unfortunately if she conceived at 14 or 13 odds are more likely that she wasn't able to carry her child to term or worse. The fact that she went for almost 6 months without prenatal care paints an even darker picture. I hope she's allright, it would be nice if she came back to the thread to let us know.
