Wan't a Baby At 19
Posted: 10-09-04 16:46pm

To give you a little background I am 19 and I always wanted a child some one to call me mommy and someone who will need me. I am in a relationship with a great man whom I love. I was pregnant with his baby 4 mos ago, but I lost it. I miss the why I felt having something growing in side of me. I don't know what I should do to plane on have a baby?

Can you girls help me get ready?
We are going to start trying after new years.

My advice: dont do it.

Unless you have good answers to these questions:

1) where will you live?
2) what are you going to do about school? Your boyfriend?
3) do you have a job? Do you make enough to support a baby?
4) what if this bf of yours leaves? Could you spport a baby by urself?
5) do your parents know? What do they think?

You know I am 19 as well and I will be 11 weeks along tomorrow. I know that feeling of having something living in you is a great feeling. Trust me, I was pregnant at 16 and lost it and it was horrible. The only thing I really would like to say is be sure he is the one you want to be with forever. If you even have the slightest doubt about him, don't have a child. A child is a lifetime responsibility. Do you want him some day possibly trying to get full custody of your child or having to pay you child support checks or having to go back and forth between parents for 18 years? I sure wouldn't want my child going through all of that. I am not saying don't have a child with him, I just wanted to give you something to think about, because when I was 16, the guy I was with said he loved me basically up until the day I said I was pregnant and then he wasn't any more. Guys seem to take longer at wanting to have any responsibility in their life. Take care!

I am 18. I wanted a baby. I got pregnant the beginning of this year and lost it in march. I am newly pregnant again. We couldn't be happier. I waited till I found the right guy, and we got married in july of this year. I don't have an answer to all those questions above, but I know things work out for something you really want.

I am 20 years old and 17 weeks pregnant. I couldnt be happier I dont know what I would do if something happened for me to miscarry. Like everyone else said, if he is the right guy for you then go for it, maybe a good commitment first though, see I am not married although I am still with my babys father and we love eachother very much. We have plans to marry next fall. I am confident in a way that if one day we end up not wanting to be together he will always be there for our child, but I don't see us breaking up at all because the baby has brought us so much closer together, he is just as excited as me. So make sure you have a man that take care of you and that will be prepared to support you and your future child. Wink
