dont panic. you need to think about this. having a baby isnt as bad as you think. in fact, its the best thing that ever happened to me and i went through it without the father. yes you're 15, i was 17. yes it will be tough, but what isnt? you could have your first child at 15...25...35 or 45 and it would be scary at whatever age. having a child is the one things that age doesnt give you more expetriance over. get yourself a job and prepare yourself. you may feel like having a baby will take away your freedom, but its also going to give you neverending happiness, and a little life who is going to love u forever no matter what. what could possibly be bad about that?

hi. ive been with my boyfriend for quite a while now...and i went on the pill. about a month ago i stopped taking it because of the side effects and we've had sex since. now i havent had a period for months...but im not sure if thats because of the pill messing up my cycle or if its because i'm pregnant. i've spoke to my boyfriend about it, and he's supportive but also very worried. i'm living with my dad at the moment, but i couldnt ever tell him about this, (he's only just got over the fact that i have a boyfriend). i want to buy a pregnancy test but i have no money at the moment, but i'm wondering if i could get an emergency appointment with a doctor down here...im so confused on what to do. any advice will be much appreciated, and i'm sorry that this has turned into an essay. x x x

i think you should tell your dad what is the werst he could do you need your suppert around you it cant be that hard talk to him and tell him he will respect you more for telling him then you not telling him it will be bad but just try .i was really worried about telling my dad i thought he was going to kick me out but he didnt he understang but he respects me more now i have told him. hope it all gose well when is your baby coming xxxx good luck

Hey, im also 15 and found out i was pregnant a couple of months back. I told the father n he sed he wanted nothing to do with it and to get rid of it. I couldn't go through with the abortion but i then had a miscarriage with all the stress. I got reli upset and didn't tell the father as he just wanted out of it. But a couple of week back i realised i hadn't had a period since the miscarriage and went to the doctors. They told me i was pregnant and i didn't understand how because i hadn't done anything since. They explained i had been carrying twins and was then 15 weeks pregnant. I had a scan the other day and the picture is the most amazing thing i have ever seen. I told my mum and dad and they went mad but hav calmd down now and hav sed they will stick by me. The father stil isn't interested but i know i have my friends to lean on and family. Just don't get stressed out if you are, its scary i know but at the end of the day if you are grown up enuf to do it, you must b grown up enuf to deal with the consequences.

there are free clinics where you can go get a pregnancy test. when i found out i was pregnant my doctors sent me to one of those clincs to get a proof of pregnancy. they are really nice there and they even have maternity clothes and books you can take for free if you are hurting for money which at fifteen i am sure you would be if the test came out positive.

heyy im pregnant right now with my ex boyfriends baby and hes very supportive to and weve been talking alot about this and i know what your going through, i would get a test somehow or go to the doctors i know your dad would probaly be very shocked if he heard you were pregnant, me and my dad are really close cause i just live with mine as well but i told him and he was very dissapointed in me but he told me he would help me through this im 15 and im pregnant its really scary and the thought of getting an abortion is so hard and devistating but im so scared to take care of a baby when ill be starting high school but i think if you are pregnant try talking to your dad about it you can make your own decisions and next time you have sex haha use protection i hope everything goes alright for you
i hope i helped you write me back when you get a chance!

family planning clinic can help and its free and confidential, and they will do a pregnancy test for you, look in the phone book to see if there is one in your area,
please tell your dad he might be angry but he loves you and will want to help

OK hang on so you were on the pill but you stopped taking it... after you stopped did you have unprotected sex?!?

I am only 18 and pregnant 29weeks now and telling my family was realy scary but i don't regret it i didn't speak to my family for a month or so after wards but they have come round to it now. I hjave been with my fiance for 4years but it still has been hard. I suggest you go to the doctors and say you think your pregnant and do a test there and find out the n decide form then but it could jsust be the pill.

Dont worry about being pregnant...chances are if your were taking it at one point in time and stoppd taking it a couple weeks before you had sex then all of that medicine is still in you so it could be that the left over medicicne is messing with your cycle.

If you have insurance you can easily go to a planned parenthood office near you and they will give you a free test. you should find out as soon as possible! And dont worry wen you tell your dad of course he will be mad but he will get over it.

im 16 an pregnant with ma first! im scared an i was tarrified to tell my parents an the dads parents...but it was ok execpt now im going to b a singal parent cause he skipped out on me an said he hated me 4 getting preg...like its all my fualt! all im saying is dont wait to long cause then it will be to late , go to planned parent hood an they will giv u a free preg test!okay?!

if its any help , i think u shud at least try and start a part time job in a local shop then when u've saved enough buy a pregnancy test and find out 4 sure. sometimes when someone is stressed or under depression for a long period of tyime it stops the period.

if the test reveals that u r pregnant talk 2 your dad , calm him down. dont tell him right aay. ask him how his day was , wat he's been up 2 etc. if he starts getting weird and askin questions just say ' dad please dont freak out. now u know for some time i've had a boyfriend. well i had my second experience of sex. ' tell him dat the first time you took the Pill. But u wanted to stop because of the side-effects. tell him you were careful but on the second occasion you didnt have protection


hope i've at least given you a little bit of help , decisions of what to do and so on

if u want more info or want to speak 2 me in private then email me on www.cutie_stacey_06@yahoo.co.uk

i'm an internet agony - aunt sort of thing

You should go to your doctor and set up a appointment to take a test most places are free or just ask a friend or your boyfriend for some money to buy a test.The sooner you find out the better! I didn't find out until i was already 2 months pregnant and i was 15 years old also when i got pregnant.

plz wb XXX

dot worry yourself so much just now, it is easy enough to go to you family planing clinic and get a test, it is also confidentual. the chances are are pregnant dont waist any time the sooner find out the more time you have to think things through

Hi I was reading your post and I'm so sad for you. Firstly, you need to get tested your doctor can do it free and confidentially. Also you can get free tests at various places look up family planning clinics alot of youth places will tell you, like connections for instance, social services or even try child line. Secondly no matter how protective etc your dad is you need to tell him. It will be the hardest thing you've ever had to do but you need to tell him coz if you are pregnant you cant hide it. Please don't consider abortion if you are pregnant,it is murder and you will regret that for the rest of your life. Having a child young isn't the end of the world. It may seem it at the start but it isn't and babies are such wonderful gifts from God. If you are pregnant you can get all sorts of help and benefits and your Dad will get over it in time. Leave him a letter if you can't bring yourself to tell him but it's important you do. If your not pregnant learn from this experience. Either don't have sex or use protection. Condoms if you can't use the pill because of side effects. You don't have to have sex just because your in a relationship. I hope and will pray that everything goes ok for you, with love Emma xx
