Q: 14 And Need Help!
asked by: lokkita on November 26th, 2004

I think I am pregnant. I'v been with my boyfriend beto for 11 months today.We have been wanting a baby and have been ttc. My period's suppose to come this tuesday so i'm just waiting. I told beto that I think I am preg. And he got all happy. I told him not to get his hopes up though because 2 months ago I was late and thought I was pregnant and we got our hopes up too much but it turned out I wasn't. Well my question to anybody who wants to help is, how do I tell my mom!!!!!!!!!?
Please help me!!!

i really have thought this through. Beto is going to be 16 next month. Wat we know for sure is that we will have a lot of support from his family, its my family that i'm worried about.His 24 year old sister, mom, and dad want me to have a baby. Beto has a job and his mom told me that if I get pregnant I could live w/ them. I know i'm young but to tell u the truth, wen we 1st decided we wanted a baby, the reason I wanted it was because beto has liver cancer and I love him so so so so much, so if he was to pass away, I would have something from him that no one can take away from me.
Thank you very much for your concern, but I think i'm ready 4 this

Do his parents only want you to have a baby because he has cancer and may die young? (sorry if that sounds harsh)

but to me, it sounds like his parents want a grandchild from him. I dunno about this, it seems kinda fishy.

I think if you can't support your baby then you shouldn't try to get pregnant.

no its not that because he might not die now. Doc said that he's next on da list and that the 1st liver someone donates is 4 him. His sister just likes babies thats all. She goes baby shopping and leaves all da stuff in her closet for the next person who has a baby. His mom just said that she would like for me to be part of her family.I really want to have a baby with beto. But I dunno how 2 tell my mom!!!!!!!

One concern I have for you is not only that youre so young, but you said your bf has liver cancer, if he does pass away(hope not) are you going to be able to raise and support the baby yourself, I know you said that his family will help you, but youre 14 and need to be in school, who would take care of the baby then, just think long and hard about the effects it would have on a child to grow up without a father, I cant imagine my boys not having their daddy. I do understand that you would want a reminder, or a little piece of your boyfriend if something did happen, but maybe there are other ways in which to remember him. Just my thoughts, I wish you the best of luck with any desicion you make.As far as your family goes I think they have every right to be upset, it would probably be a huge shock to them, but only because they want whats best for you. If youre not pregnant I would seriously rethink your descision, and just have total faith in god that your boyfriend will make it, and then after you graduate and establish your life and relationship then think about starting a family. Best of luck to you.

ok now when did I say I couldn't support my baby????
Me and beto can support our baby just fine. The only thing we're getting from his mom (for a lil while) is a place to live.

i want to thank u for your advice. Like I said the doc said that ther's a 90% chance that he will live. I totally agree with you that my family will be very upset, but what I want them to know is that I made a decision and I really hope that they support it.

No sorry cant support you wiht this one, youre a 14 year old kid who doesnt know what she wants. If it were an accident then I could understand, otherwise, stop being selfish and grow up a little many of the younger girls here if not all didnt count on being pregnant but are handling it wonderfully but i'm sorry a 14 and 15 yr old cannot support a baby as well as themselves

And if you really love someone and they die the way to always remember them is to never stop loving them

I have to say I agree with this one..

You're still a child no matter which way you look at it and there is no possible way you can fathom the responsibility of a child at your age. To purposely bring a child into the world at you and your boyfriends age would be extremely selfish. Not to mention the fact that theres a chance your baby would be losing its father.

Your in what? 8th maybe 9th grade? You have your entire life ahead of you! Don't make a decision now to have a child when you have so much ahead of you. Did you think at all about ow you would graduate? Go to college? And possibly support yourself .A.N.D a child at the age 14? You can't even get a part time job at 14!

But, if you are already pregnant....Than there is nothing you can do about it. I hope, for your sake, you arent. But if you are...Just be forward with your mother. Don't beat around the bush..Just tell her straight up, let her cry, answer her questions and move on.

But please, if you aren't pregnant...Please reconsider this! You are still a baby! You do not need the responsibility of a child!

A 14 year old isn't even allowed to have a job........There are two examples of young mothers: ka......She is very mature and is going to be a great mother. You: you sound very very immature and selfish. And you sound like someone who was here before? 'da'

And there is something wrong with a family that wants their 15 yr old son's 14 year old girlfriend to have a baby cause they want one, completely selfish

look if they can handle it wonderfully, then give me a reason why I can't. If they didn't want a baby then they should've kept their legs closed. I had sex for 1 reason, to have a baby. Don't you think that if a single teenager can support a baby, 2 teenagers together can support one way better? And I ain't trying to be selfish because i'm gonna make sure we give our baby a good life. I'm still gonna graduate i'm already taking extra classes that only give me a better chance than the good one I already have to get scholorships.
