Amazing I know. How I could be so far gone and only then find out.

Well ill explain it if you have time to read. My periods have always been irregular showing up a few months late always. Well this time my period had now shown up for 3 and a half weeks and I was sent for a scan to see if I had ovarian cysts which are in my family and are hereditory. Anyway i've had no sign or symptom of being pregnant and in the middle of doing a course but I already have one qualification of teacher assistant.

I went for the scan and the woman told me I was pregnant it was the most shocking scariest expierence in my life. I could not believ eher. I then went into shock and scared and felt alone and rung my mother straight away. No one expected it from me or my boyfriend who is still at school doing last year of a levels. It was so shocking but anyway my mother did not get mad she talked civilized and gave me support.

My father and both boyfriend wanted me to get rid of it. But I just couldnt so now I have decided to keep it I dropped out of school and went to look for a job today and got it within 5 minutes of speaking to the manager, (they were very short staffed there) so its all going to work out fine. My mother has sorted an house out for me two doors down nice and close.

My father still isnt speaking to me but my boyfriend and my mother and my grandparents are so very supportive their even beginning to get excited!

Well anyway id just like to chat to more people my age and pregnant

He was shocked. We all were. But hes come round now and hes excited believe it or not. But he was in shock its expected I mean when my mother got pregnant with my 5 year old sister she was 38 it was a huge shock and the first thing my father said ws get rid of it. People do act differently in shock. And I mean they've been married for 26 years.

Hey girl. I'm 21, 20 when I got preg and am engaged.

We now have a 5 month old daughter. Of course it's hard. But with family and friend support, it's possible.

You and your man should stay in school and finish what yall started. Being pregnant isn't the end of everthing. It's just a slight bump in the road!!

Good luck!

Sarah
