Is It Wrong to Try And Get Pregnant Young?

If you want someone or something to love buy a puppy .Babies are forever. Ask married couples who planned for months and months for children it is hard work that doesnt stop ,forever!! Babies are cute and fun but it doesnt stop there. 1:00, 3:00, 5:00 in the morning they dont care if your tired or sick they need you 24/7 please wait youll be happier that you did!

Puppies also are forever, you can not discard a puppy when the fun wears off.

I realize that I have both!Sorry I offended you.

Wasn't so much that you offended me, just that I see so many abandoned dogs and other animals. I just wanted to make sure no-one else thought along those lines - i'll get a puppy then when i'm done I can turn it out.

I think if possible kids shuld have pets - it helps teach them responsibility and gives them a sense of self worth that they are needed by this creature.

Usually thats what these young girls are looking for a sense of worth and to be needed by someone its sad that they fell that they need it, instead of looking within themselves for this. Thats why im a firm believer in raising strong young girls who value their opinion of themselves over that of anyone else. You cant love anyone else until you love yourself

Want a baby or want to be a parent?

If you think your ready and can handle it, go for it.

It is not guanrateed that a man will stick behind when you become pregnant or even when you have the baby that is just one of the risk we all take when making the decision of having a baby.

I'm 18 now, but I have wanted to be a mom since I was 15. My sister had a baby when I was 14, and I helped to raise him. I know it's not the same as having one of my own, but there were days when she would be gone all day and all night, and I watched him. I loved every minute of it, and would love one of my own. I'm not married, and i'm not rich or anything, but I would love to get pregnant.

I'm not saying an early pregnancy is right for everyone, but I believe some people can handle it, and that age is just a number.

Hey!!! This is to everyone I guess. Wow everyone has so many diffrent opinions!!! Well, i'm 18 and a few months ago I got pregnant (not planned) and had a mis-carriage!! I didn't think it would bother me so much...But now it seems that the only thing that will make this pain go away is to actually have a baby. I'd like to hear everyones opinions on this one!!! I have a boyfriend (we are very much in love) and i'm out of school. I'm going to start writting classes soon and my boyfriend has a steady job and is in nursing school. You guys give me your opinions...Help me out. I just can't deal with this pain anymore!!! Help

I would start trying again sweetie. I know what you mean...Knowing that you were pregnant...And then having that taken away from you. I wanted to get pregnant right away too, after my miscarriage.

And how you deal with babies for more than just a few hours... Like having a baby is not babysitting

All I have to say is think of your future.. Really sit down and think about all aspects of having a baby.. Being a single mom is hard.. It is even harder at a young age. I have a friend that got pg at 15. I understand that you are 17 but that doesn't change the fact that the "daddy" could walk away at any time and now that new baby is your soul responsibility. My friends baby's daddy was there up till she was four months old than puff.. There was new butty in town. It can be done she graduated high school and college and now has a good paying job at 22. Please sit back and think of that baby. What if you loose you job and you can't pay rent.? Or you want a new pair of sneakers and the baby needs formula.. It will no long be what you want but what that baby needs. All I am asking is that you think of five years down the road... When he'she needs new shoes are you going to have the money to buy them or will they be wearing the same pair that are three sizes to small..? If I came across abrupt I am truely sorry that is not what I meant.. Please just logically sit and think of yours and this babies future.. Best wishes..

I think it is natural for young women to have the desire to have a baby, however, I believe it is selfish to bring a new life into the world when you know you could give it better later on. When I was in highschool I never ever thought about babies! I was so in tune about getting off to college and partying with my friends. Now, im 20 yrs old and 22 weeks pregnant, unplanned. This is incredibly scary, and I know I have a long haul ahead of me. This is not what I wanted for me or another life, but I will make the best of the situation. Its one thing if you fall pregnant, its another to try.

I know this may sound harsh but get a pet instead!!!! Being a mother is 24 hours labored job. At 17 you haven't even began to see the ways of the world so how can you prepare your child for the ways of the world? How can you teach a child if you are still learning yourself? Younger kids wanting to be parents is children trying to fill a void in there life thats why I suggest getting a pet. To raise a child your life needs to be concrete. You need to have a good paying job cause an average child takes 65,000 dollars to raise in a life time, a house (not your momma's) your house for the child to have a home, a car children have doctors appointments all the time, food milk, pampers, all of this has to have $$$$ to buy its not given. Im not saying that young children can not be great mother my mom was one of them but she made a mistake and had to, you have a choice!!! I hope this helps

Hey tinkerbell

having a miscarriage is hard, i'm not surprised you're upset, but you should think about counselling to help you come to terms with the miscarriage rather than getting pregnant again.

Why don't you leave it for now and have a long think about what you want to do? There's no harm waiting, and a baby is a lifetime commitment you know!

I'd just like to say that pets are not cheap. They are about the same as babies. I'm sure plenty of you will disagree with me but I don't care. I have 2 chihuahuas and a pit bull (and a baby on the way). I've spent thousands of dollars on my dogs in less than a year. You can get insurance for children and baby showers but for dogs no showers and insurance for them is ridiculous. Dogs are like kids. They will ruin everything you own, get into everything you don't want them to get into, and no matter how old they get they never understand you. Dogs are just as much work. I know you prolly think i'm crazy for going on and on about dogs but I watch animal cops and I feel horrible for the poor abandoned animals. Make your parents get a dog and just play with it. Enjoy youth! And don't ever ever ever buy a chihuahua. They're soooooooo much work, and pit bulls really do get into everything. Ok, don't know where all that came from. Sorry!

Mizz jai how the hell did u do it?
