If you dont think it was right, get a blood test from a doctor. You can go to planned parenthood or another place that helps out pregnant women. Also, Im not sure where you are from, but check into medicaid because your going to need health insurance. Also, you need to tell your parents ASAP, it may be scary and they might get a bit angry or frustrated but they will respect you more because you are going to be able to get the care you need to have a healthy pregnancy. The sooner you do this, the better for you and the baby. Also, the sooner you find out for sure you can weigh your options and decide what is best for you and your child. I hope everything works out for you, If you ever need to talk you can message me. Im on here everyday. === Kyra

im 18 and have one son and am pregnant. Good luck and i am also on here most days. kyrafaith has good advice. I would listen to it.
Good luck.

get a blood pregnancy test to be sure. talk to your mom. you need support now. if you're not ready to be a mom, there's always adoption. you'd be helping another couple have a baby and giving your baby life. take a deep breath. don't worry. it will all be fine. don't let anyone pressure you to do anything. it's your choice and only yours. tell your mom asap. she'll probably be supportive. don't let anyone tell you what to do! search from within your heart and listen to yourself and no one else.

First, tell your mother. Second, take another pregnancy test with your mother. That way if you made a mistake the first time, she can be there to help you.
I say this over and over, but young kids should not be having unprotected sex. STDs like herpes are very common as well as unplanned pregnancies. 16 is not an age at which you want to be a mother. You have so many years to enjoy yet and having a baby means possibly not finishing your education or getting a good paying job. It can mean a life of poverty. How many financially stable teen mothers do you know? That aside, you really need to talk with your Mother and decide what is best for you and your baby. There are a lot of options - think carefully before you proceed and do your homework. Why? Because once you make a decision, there is no turning back. Be sure what you can live with and examine what type of future you want for yourself and for your baby. I wish you luck...

I regret to inform you that you will find MANY financially stable, emotionally stable, higher education TEEN MOTHERS on this site. Don't be so quick to judge. To the OP, tell your mother, get support. Talk about all of your options. Decide which option is best for you. Don't let anyone talk you into anything. This has to be your decision, be it adoption, parenting, abortion, whatever. But the most important thing you need to know is that it is NOT the end of the world. You can do anything if you have the right mindset. Be positive, make the best you can out of whatever you decide to do. If you decide to parent, there IS help out there. You can still graduate, still go to college, still get a high-paying job. The most important thing is to make your decision based on what YOU feel is best for YOURSELF and YOUR baby. By all means, put your baby before you. But don't neglect your feelings either. If you cannot stand to abort, don't do it. If you cannot EMOTIONALLY handle adoption, talk to your mother, talk to your school counsellor, talk to a shrink, talk to someone who can either help you emotionally get through an adoption (if, despite the emotional impact, that is what you decide is what is best)OR who can get you into parenting programs and assistance. You need to talk to an ADULT though.
P.S. To Sonofjames....please allow me to remind you that some of these girls here actually used birth control/had sex responsibly...I was one of those girls. She doesn't need a lecture that she will (and probably already had several times over)most likely recieve from every adult around her. She needs support. Friendship. Help. From people who have experienced what she is going through.
