Q: Pregnancy at 14 ?

OK my boyfriend came inside me well lets say more then two times and we both decided to have a child. But the thing is I'm 14 turning 15 this October(2009) and he's 17 turning 18 this October (2009). And I'm scared to think what my parents will say. do any of you have advice??? Because the first time he came inside me was Easter of 2009 of course and it is now the following Saturday. I know in my heart if i am i will NEVER get an abortion so that's out of the question and there's no force on this earth to make me give away the child so I'm dazed and confused. Yes indeed i have talked to my mother and yes my mother knows i am sexually active with him but I don't really know what she would do or if i would do if i really was but i think I should take a test to know if its fur sure or not but yea i don't know...What do you guys think i should do???

Why would you decide to have a child at age 14? If you're having sex and you're not using ANY form of birth control (condoms or anything) then you are pretty much actively trying to get pregnant. It doesn't make sense for someone who's 14.

I think you should start using condoms with spermicides until you know whether or not you're pregnant. If you are not pregnant then schedule an appointment with a doctor so you can decide on a more reliable form of birth control.

You need to wait at least two weeks after sex to test, so you'll have to go from your last time having unprotected sex.

i dont think you should be having a child at 14. yes your boyfriend is older but you both have your lives way ahead of you. i dont mean to be mean, but do you even have the finacial stability to take care of a living breathing child? the hundreds of thousands of dollars that goes into taking care of every babies needs? how are you going to go to school? are you just going to dump the baby on your mother while you go have fun with friends? is your boyfriend willing to give up going to college and getting a degree to have a full time job and buy diapers for a baby? it's just not a good idea when mentally a 14 year old is not ready to care for another human being. you need to think more into this before deciding to have a child. because there is more than just cute outfits and smiles when it comes to babies. its late night feedings, full time jobs, crying, diapers, messes, doctors visits, food to buy. not to mention to cost of formula alone. one can of formula can amount to about 25 dollars. multiply that by how many cans of formula you are going to need to buy for that baby. it's not a good idea.
