I'm So Confused And Lost
Posted: 08-12-05 02:23am

First of all, i'm 16 years old and i'll be 17 in less than 4 months. Well on july 3rd I met this guy. We had sex. We became boyfriend girlfriend. Well we had sex on the: 3, 8, 9, and 12. The first time he used a condom, 2nd time he withdrawled and I know there is pre cum, 9 we used a condom, and the 12th he cummed in me. I don't remember when my period was in june. Then on the 21st, I got in a wreck(only involving me) well I got my blood drawn to see if I was pregnant. It came back negative. I had my period on july 24th and it only last 2-3 days. Which is very abnormal for me. I usually last 6-7 days. It was also very light. I also have been feeling really really sick. All i've been wanting to do is sleep or I have the feeling that i'm going to vomit. I don't vomit much and i've never had this feeling repeatley day after day. I was looking up on the internet. It's possible to have a period for a couple days and still be pregnant. I was wondering if it was to early to tell when I got the blood test? I know i'm not thinking I am, because I really want this and I really didn't start thinking I was pregnant till I started reading up on it. I don't know what to think. Yes, my mom knows that there was a possiability that I was pregnant before and i've brought it up before because my period was so short. So I don't have to worry about telling her about being pregnant if I am. But she said that I have had a lot of stress on me this past month and half. Which is true, the guy left me to go back to his ex, which is my friend, I totaled my first car, and everyone has been ganging up on me calling me all these names because of the guys age.

I do want to be pregnant. I do have a car, I do have my licenses, when I turn 18, my friend and I are getting an apartment, and i'm going job hunting either later on today or saturday morning. I have experience with kids since i've been in 4th-5th grade and i'll be a junior this year. Plus I have a nephew and niece that I basically helped my brother raised since their mother walked out on them. I know a lot about kids and I adore kids. So please don't tell me that i'm not ready. I've already heard it from enough people.

Please reply. I need to get unconfused and lost

I've been reading through this thing about teen pregnancy. Some pages are pretty...Wow! Girls going at each other throats and so on. But I do realize that if anyone responds, i'm going to be asked so many questions. But i'm ready to answer them. If I am pregnant, my dad already told me he would kick me out. That's why he doesn't know that i'm not a virgin anymore! :) but if my mom lets him, I already have several back up plans. I could go to minnesota and be with one of my best friends, move in with my brother, and other possibilities. No I don't have a job. But that doesn't mean I haven't been looking. The economy is going down and where I live there is no jobs. If there is you have to be 17 or 18 to work there. I do have a car, I paid for it but my dad is paying the insurance. I don't expect to have my parents help and I don't want my parents help. I'm pretty mature for my age. It's not like i'm dying to just have a baby and go out and have sex. I've slept with 1 guy. If i'm pregnant, that's great. If i'm not pregnant, that's great too. I know there is high school and I know I won't be able to do as much as I do right now if i'm pregnant. But the thing is i'm actually starting to believe I am. Because once I found out it was negative once I had my car wreck, I still felt sick to my stomach and stuff. If I am, i'll be around a month or less pregnant. But I don't know. Could of it been to soon to tell when I had the blood test?? I don't know. I know i'm still young. I know there is going to be a huge change in my life. I know that there was a possiability of being pregnant, that's why I was save, but then I found he's allergic to laytex, which we used my condom that was and well that's when we stopped using condoms. No I wasn't on birth control. My mom is going to put me on birth control if this guy and I get back together. I don't care if i'm not or if I am. I love kids and I want one, but I know i'm young and still have life ahead of me. My ex sister-in-law got pregnant at age 15 and had a kid at 16. Then got pregnant again and had one again at 18. She left my brother and the kids and wants nothing to do with them. I'm not going to be like that. I'll be a great mother.

Blood test can sometimes show up negative if they test to early... It happen to my sister and my mom. If you think you maybe pregnant then go to the doctor and have them test you again. Only you know whats going on with your body and dont let anyone tell you otherwise. Im sorry to hear about your parents, I think when your daughter does get pregnant, that is when she needs you the most and it is a shame that your parents do not realize that. I wish you the best and if people on here do give you a hard time just ignore them. I know I have been tough on a few girls here but thats just because when a 13 year old tells
you she is going to become pregnant and can get a paper rout to pay for it and wont listen to anyone regardless of how sound the advice, you get really frustrated. Most of the people on here really do care and want to help. I wish you the best and let us know when you find out if you are pregnant.

Thanks! :d today I haven't been feeling any better. But if I bring it up with my mom, we'll get in a big arguement just like before when I told her I think i'm pregnant. I'll just wait and see if I get my period. If I do, i'll still take the test because you can still have your period even when your pregnant, but if I don't then i'll go with my friend to buy a pregnancy test. If it comes back negative, i'll go tell my mom and have a blood test done, because the stick isn't always accurate. My friend took 3 of them and came back negative and then went and took a blood test and came back positive. I don't know. But I got to go it's storming and I got to fix supper before my parents get home. Bye!

Well I don't know yet. But my friend and I are going to get a pregnancy test tomorrow to see. I'll tell ya what it says tomorrow. But if I am, I already have the school part covered. I think. My mom hasn't gave me an answer yet. But my friends dad is going to home school me for my junior and senior year. Which means if I do get home schooled I can get a full time job. Which will help me out a lot. But i'm not pregnant, then it'll still help me to get home schooled because it'll help with my grades and I can get a full time job. But yeah. I just wanted to post that. So don't lecture me on not knowing what to do. Like I said I think things through several times and run it over in my mind several times. I'm pretty mature for me age and I know what i'm doing. But I got to go. My friends parents are going to call my parents to see if I can do this or not. So bye!! Please reply. I would like to get more advice on this.

Well I find out tomorrow if I can get homeschooled. *crosses fingers* I hope so. I've been bringing it up since 8th grade and my grades aren't really the best at this new school i'm going to because of all the drama, class clowns, and stuff like that. But once I get the answer tomorrow, my friend and I are going to look for jobs. Try to get jobs together because she might be pregnant. Then tomorrow her and I are going to wal-mart to get pregnancy test. Which i'm scared about because my cousin goes there and well her friend is going out with the guy I had sex with. I don't want anyone knowing i'm doing this. I want to tell the guy myself. He heard it from other people before because of my cousin. He'll want a paternity test because my cousin is spreading rumors around that i've been sleeping with more people than just him. Which i'm mad about because he's believing her over me. But I can't say much because the guy barely knows me and doesn't know if I lie or not. But I mean he has figured out that I don't. Once I find out i'm pregnant, I got to go find him somewhere and tell him. Then once he finds out it is his kid, I think he will step up and take care of it. He has a custody of one of his kids. Yes, he has kids, but I don't want to tell you how many. His age is also staying a secret because everyone is already calling me a hoe, promiscuous person, and so forth because of it. But yeah. I wish people would reply, I would like to get to know some of you people. Even if it is lecturing me for being stupid for wanting a kid.

I know all about appointments, I know they are needy, I know I can't hand my baby off to my parents if it doesn't stop crying, I know it cost for baby stuff, and I just know all of it. I've tooken my niece and nephew to appointments. I have bought things for my nephew and niece when my brother didn't have the money. And yes it was my money. My niece is just a little over a year old and wow she is needy but I adore her to pieces. My nephew had collic when he was younger and I woke up everytime he did if he was here. I know all about terrible twos, my nephew just got over it. About the parents thing, I don't want my parents help. One my mom isn't able to care for kids and my dad...Well he would hurt my kid. I've been caring for kids for almost 6-7 years now. I've taken a lot of classes in high school about babies. I know that isn't much. But still. I have my own car, my parents are paying for insurance and will be till I turned 18 then i'm on my own, I have my licenses, and I will have a job sooner or later. Basically i'm just asking not to get lectured. I'm not crazy for wanting a kid, because I personally do want a kid but I would be happy if I wasn't. I know i'm 16 and I have my life still ahead of me. But I don't party like most kids like my age, I don't drink, I don't do drugs, and yeah I do spend a lot of time with my friends, actually I only have 1 true friend that I see day after day. Which she might be pregnant. We plan on getting apartment together once I turn 18.

Anyway...Please reply. I would like to get to know some of you. :d
