Softball
From what ive read if you are active before conception, you should be able to stay active. However, since you require so much blood and oxygen in your unterus, strenuous activity may not be such a great idea. Youre going to have to talk to a doctor about that, they will want to do tests reguarding your blood pressure and such. Even if he says its ok to be active..Softball has been known to be a contact sport at times...So it may not be a great idea. As for the mom thing...Everyone deals with it differently. My sister-in-law(sort of) had her mother with her at the doctors office...She was getting morning sickness and thought it was the effect of an allergic reaction to some medicine she was taking. So they found out together...Needless to say there was a lot of crying...Her mom was not too happy. Most mothers of teens are not happy to hear the news, but she needs to know. I can't promise you anything reassuring like she will understand or be happy about it, but you will feel better getting it off your chest. I suggest sitting her down, and telling her that you have something to tell her that she will be hard for you to say, and hard for her to hear. Then tell her. I hope all turns out well for you- good luck.

Thanx
Thank you for your reply my boyfriend and I plan on seeing the nurse tomorrow to ask her what to do maybe she will help me out with telling my mom and telling me what doctor I should go to and all that good stuff. Even though I am really nervious and scared theres a little bit of me that is excited. The only thing that worries a lot me is the future for the baby what i,m going to do about college and if me and my boyfriend will really stay together that long. And also if I will ever have a socal life again? If someone could tell me what it was like for then after there baby was born I would really like to hear thanx again kendra

Ok you are very young so its going to be very hard with a baby. Dont go see a nurse you need to see a doctor. The nurse will tell you the same thing. And you need to tell your mom if you are sure you are pregnant. She will be upset, scared, sad, hurt, dissapointed and on and on. But after all that she will be there for you. And being so young you need her help than your boyfriends. As for your social life, consider it dead. My sister went through the same thing, and we had friends and parties at our house, but she got pregnant and it died. She has nobody but family. Only 1 guy friend who comes around alot, which is nice. Im getting married soon so im fine with out old friends. But nobody really cares to invite you to much becuase they know you have a responsibility now, and you cant do anything without a babysitter. And your guy might be there for you but dont expect him to stay home all the time when hes young and wants to go out and enjoy his youth. You can get home study or something to finish school and work around your babies schedule for college. Well good luck, get your sleep, you will need it. Keep in touch.

Well its been a very long hard and emotional couple of days. Thurday I skipped school to go to this place we have here in town called family planning they were a lot of help they gave me a whole bunch of information and numbers of the differnent doctors I can go to. I told my mom on friday she was so upset she wouldnt even talk to me which made it twice as hard. Then when she finally cooled down to talk to me she wanted to talk about giving the baby up for adoption and all I could do was cry because I dont want to do that and my boyfriend refuses also. She said it would be a great option and she even knows the family and I could see it anytime I want to. But truthfully I dont think I could carry this baby and give birth to it and see its face then give it away. I dont know I have a while to think about it. If you have any opinions about this I would love to hear from you! Thanx kendra

The only choices I was given was abortion if I ever got pregnant....But the only decision I will make if I am pregnant is to keep the baby no matter what I had to do...Then my mom gave me two choices when I asked her what shed do if I ever got pregnant....She said shed make me get an abortion or carry it for the nine months, birth it, then give it up for adoption...(my moms a cold heartless b*tch...She abandoned me and my little sister 3 times, once right after she got us out of foster care)....If I am...Im not giving it up...Its my child...And I hope all other girls who want their child feel the same way and dont let parents tell you what to do with your child.

Thanks,
heather

Yes you can finish the season out. But keep active afterwords too. Just be more careful.

I told my mom that I wanted her to meet her grandchild and watch her grow up some before something bad happened. She just cried a lot she was not mad at all. I am only 16, but my mom has always been very open.:raimbow:

How are you going to support your future family? Are you and your boyfriend going to rent an apartment together? Do you have jobs? You guys are pretty brave.
