Only a teen...and PREGNANT!!! HELP ME!?

[Marzipan_girl]

me and my bf have not been together for very long, but we are so in love and we got carried away last week and had unprotected sex 9 times. I know it was dumb, but I honestly thought I couldn't get pregnant because I have sufered frm anorexia and bulimia for many years and my periods went missing for 2 years. Now my periods have returned, there is a high chance I am pregnant, but they cant do an accurate test until my next one is due. At first we were like "oh damn our lives are so screwed up". He has promised me he wont leave me if I am pregnant, but my mum thinks he will cos we are both only 17 and he wants to go to university. I really dont want to believe her, and I love him so much and he said he would be there...what do you think the chances of me being pregnant are? i am really scared but mabie it is just gods plan. I dont want an abortion. But are our lives truly messed up now? I am doing my A levels. we stil want an education. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!!!

I had a baby when I was 15 and my boyfriend was 17 he married me and we have been married for 4 years now dont worry when you have kids somtimes you cant do evrything you want to but it will always be worth it

first of all, calm down. there is a chance you are, but there is no point in getting yourself worked up over something you don't know for sure yet. in the meantime, use protection. when your period is due, test and if you are pregnant than you can work through it then.

First of all, it isn't the end of the world. It will change your life drastically, but not end it. I got pregnant at 17 and a senior in school and had my baby at age 18 and after I graduated. The only thing is that I wished I would have went to college. And you don't need a man to raise a child. And lastly, if you aren't ready to become a mother and if he isn't ready to become a father, you need to either abstain from sex or get on some sort of birth control.

i think you will be fine and finish your schooling there is no reason you cant with a baby it will just be a little harder!! trust him when he says this and sit down and talk to his parents as well! good luck!

Hi!It's a bit hard to tell you what your risks are regarding getting pregnant but there definitely are risks. Have you thought about taking the morning after pill? You have 72 hours to take it so you may still be able to take it. Regarding your b/f, he may well love you and may stay with you but it is really hard on relationships to have a baby (I am 27 and am worried about how it's going to affect MY relationship!!!). You sound like a clever girl (apart from having unprotected sex but it can happen!!!) and you need to talk to your b/f and a counsellor. I would avoid involving your parents too much as they won't be objective! However, don't rule out abortion altogether. If I had been in your situation, I would have considered it. I am SO glad I waited to get pregnant so that I am not (too) worried about being with the right person, money matters, housing matters, etc Plus, I've done pretty much what I wanted with my life.IF you ARE pregnant, think carefully before keeping it as you still have your life ahead of you to hav children. You will be able to offer them so much more if you get an education and some life experience.Good luck honeyX

the first thing to do is calm down and think about what your asking us.. u know in your heart that your too young,. now that u admitted it..you need to stop where your at.. and start being smart and using protection from now on., this is a serious situation..if u r pregnant..u will need to suffer the consequences now..u need to weigh your options and figure out what ur goin to do..if u dont want to get an abortion u need to talk to your boyfriend and tell him how u feel and your mother..things will fall into place sooner or later.. next time be smart.

pray your not preggo...but if you are...keep good standing with your parents...especially if your bf wants to go to college..he will more than likely only come around when need be...too bad...soo sad!

Hopefully your God didnt intend for you to be knocked up at age 17 by a boy you dont know very well. Or get a nasty disease. That would be screwed up.You are not physically, emotionally and financially ready to be a parent. At this age there is no "we." So stop having unprotected sex. Seek help for your eating disorders and go to the clinics where they give away free condoms and pills. Use double protection. And study hard for your A-levels. After thats done, pick up a good book on fertility (hopefully you wont be pregnant).
