Hi , my name is Timogenique im 14 years old. This is my only, forst, and last child. Umm so i dont really know where to start well, Me and the baby's father are not currently together but we are working on building this up. He is 16 years old. Ya i know ," wow shes such a whore to be so young" its fine a lot of people think thats what it was but thats not the case. My family isnt really what you call a family its just somewhere for me to live. I never really knew about pregnancy. Everyone in my family basically keot me hidden from the world. Due to the fact of my multiple heart and lung conditions i didnt know what the world was to be honest. Really until the 8th grade in sex ED I discovered that pregnancy can easily happen but by then it was to late. My period is now 2 months late. My first real boyfriend. I thought i was in "love" so I had sex with him once and only once and this is what happened i recentl found out that the condom situation didnt go exactly as planned so i put the pieces together and did reasearch and pregnancy is the only thing that came. Ive take 9 pregnancy test and they all came back posive. My parents do not know yet. I dont know how to tell them. Or even come about with it at least.... Ladies i just really need help as you can see any and everthing is needed right about now. Thanks
Thanks

  • I think that if you don't feel like you can tell your parents about your pregnancy then you should find someone else in your life that you feel like you can talk with---maybe a family friend, teacher, someone at a church or neighbor. They might be able to help you sit down and talk with your parents about everything with you too. Personally I would not recommend hiding it for too long---it will only make things more stressful for you. You also want to make sure that you can get prenatal care in the coming weeks for both you and your baby. In the meantime, consider taking a daily prenatal vitamin. They have cheaper generic ones out there of money is a concern, including target. I even use those myself and they worked great in my last pregnancy as agIn so far in this one. Good luck. And I hope that you have a happy and smooth pregnancy.

  • No one here thinks you are a whore. I'm so sorry you are feeling that way. If you can't tell your parents, please reach out to another adult that you trust. Maybe a teacher or guidance counselor? A neighbor? Look up the phone number to your local planned parenthood and give them a call. I am hoping the best for you! You don't have to go through this alone. There are resources for you. Keep us posted. I will be thinking about you.

    Here is the link for planned parenthood. You can type in your zip code for a location near you:

    You are NOT a whore. There's a lot of guilt surrounding this topic that can bring such feelings or ideas. But that's what we have been lead to believe. They aren't true. I agree we were all young once and even now as "grown ups" continue to make choices that impact our lives in ways we didn't know they would. This doesn't mean that one event defines who we are.
    I agree with other members, find an adult you trust; a teacher or a counselor. If school is out, maybe there is another adult figure at your church or family circle. If these aren't available choices, find planned parenthood near you. Everyone is very nice there and they will help you in the process of it all. They will give you informed choices (there are many and the choice is yours). There should also be youth community centers near you that can also be of help. I'm sure planned parenthood can also link you to additional resources that can be of help to you right now.
    I would highly recommend you continue to seek guidance and support from a counselor or health care provider thoughout this process regardless of the choice you make.
    Take good care of yourself and know that all will be ok. As confusing or scary it may all seem right now.

    Sending good thoughts and prayers your way.
    Hug.
