Q: 17 And Want a Baby
asked by: Edwardsgurl on October 17th, 2005

That subject isnt quite accurate since I really dont want one until next year when I move in with my fiance but it seems to be the only way to get ppl to respond *blushes* sorry. Well I was wondering how soon should I stop taking my b/c pills. We've already decided not to even try until after I graduate but my family has a long history of difficult pregnancies and I was hoping there might be something I can do now to maybe prevent having a lot of problems. I want to be able to go to school while im pregnant but my mother had to drop out because of me and i'm scared that will happen to me too. Do any of y'all have any suggestions?

Thanx,
jineen d. E.

Hey! My story is closely related to yours. I am 17 years old, and my fiance is a freshman in college. We plan on getting married in 2007. We want a baby now. I wish you luck!

Wow! Congradulations! I hope everything works out for you. If you get pregnant before me I hope you keep me posted. Let me know what its like as you go through your pregnancy. And i'll do the same thing if I get pregnant. I've stopped takin the b/c pills cuz they didnt work for my body. They put me in the hospital *giggles* fun huh? Let me know if I can help with anything.

Dont rush it rosario. Your body will take a while to get used to being off the pills. Stress will make it that much harder to concieve. I stopped taking mine and im going to start prenantal pills in a few months just so that my body will already have some of the nutrients my baby would need since i'm already iron and calcium deficient.

Your So Young
Rosario,

I was just wondering why you wanted a baby so bad because you have plenty of time to have a baby. You say you just got married so you should enjoy it a little while before you decide to have a baby. I got pregnant at 16 and it was really hard because I was just a baby myself. I wish I wouldve waited and enjoyed life a little more. I find myself wanting to go out and have fun now but I always have to find a sitter before I do anything. Its really tough. In the end the decision is all yours but I just thought id let you know that having a baby is a lot of work and it changes your whole life.
