Hi chelsea, my name is caryl- I think I sent you an email directly as this is my forst time to this site. I myself am looking for information on pregnancy, although I have been pregnant before and have 2 children already. I was not as young as you are, but I was 20 when I found out I was pregnant with my first child. I know how scared and confused you must be right now. Being pregnant is tough at any age, but being so young makes it even more of a challenge. How does your boyfriend feel? Do your parents know? There is a website called parenthood.Com that should help calculate your due date. I beleive you subtract 3 months from the first day of your last period and then add 9 days. This should give you an estimate, but check the site. E-mail me if you want to talk.

Hi chelsea. You're pretty young to be having a baby, but since you are, make the most of it!!! Save as much money as you can, as it will be expensive, and take care of yourself. How did they determine you are 3 weeks pregnant? A blood test? Most women don't even know they're pregnant until they are around 6 weeks...You can go to epregnancy.Com and they have a good due date calculator. I will email you now, and discuss things more. Goodluck!
