So, *are* you pregnant or not? Do you have a test that will tell you, or do you not? If not, can you get to a Planned Parenthood or a Crisis Pregnancy Center? Either of these will probably provide a test for you for cheap or free. A CPC will also assist you with things you need (up to and including maternity and baby clothes, baby furniture, and possibly even a safe house to shelter in), but they do *not* offer the option of abortion and if you bring it up, will actively attempt to discourage you. They also tend to be run by Christian groups, which may or may not appeal to you. Planned Parenthood may or may not offer concrete assistance with physical needs, but certainly can refer you to government assistance. Many of them also provide abortion services. I have never heard of them offering direct concrete assistance such as clothing, but it's possible. Your age is not quite as big a factor (in my mind) as the fact that pregnancy is a challenging time in a woman's life, and you'll want emotional support of some kind. If you cannot get it from your mother, father, and/or the father of the baby, you'll need to get it somewhere. Medical care costs money, and you should have medical care. Food, housing, all these things cost money. Even if you were old enough to hold a full-time job (not in Washington state, I don't know about other states) you might find yourself too sick or too tired to work, especially in the first few months, and the last few months. And then there is the baby, who will need you to stay with him or her, or be in daycare (which is also expensive). Take the test. If you're pregnant, get concrete help. We can offer suggestions, but that's all we can do - we're scattered all over the *world*. It's not very likely we're in your hometown. There *are* people in your town who can help. Try the counsellor at your school, the school nurse, the pastor at your church, a local Planned Parenthood or Crisis Pregnancy Center. --angela |

Er...she wasn't calling you a verbally abusive mother...she was calling your mother verbally abusive...which you mentioned before. Also, I don't see where she was calling you immature or selfish. She was just trying to point out that sometimes the responsible thing to do (which is what you said you wanted to do) isn't always to "suck it up" and keep the child. You said that you don't have the money to raise a child. I think Jaime was trying to show you that putting your baby up for adoption is a very responsible choice for a fifteen year old girl with limited income and (from what you've said) not a great home life. I can tell you this from experience. My mother took off when I was only two months old (she was 17). My grandmother sent someone after her with adoption papers for her to sign. I was raised believing that my grandmother was my mom and my birth mother was my sister (confused yet?). When I was 28 years old, my grandmother finally told me the truth. I was so thankful. I got to see how my birth mother lived and I truly believe that I wouldn't have had the opportunities I have had in my 30 years if I had even made it that far. She has since cleaned up her act and we have a decent relationship. I feel no resentment towards her for giving me up. I am truly thankful for the life I was given in return. Please realize that people here are just trying to help you. -- Sami Walt Disney World Entertainment Magic Kingdom Shows MGM Shows Animal Kingdom Shows and Parades |

Read the post Krystal. Slow down, read it word for word, understand what is
being written to you, before you come back with a long drawn out post that really says nothing. My suggestion of adoption had nothing to do with how much you would love this child, or what type of mother you would be -- it had to do with the larger picture -- a 15 year old girl living at home with an abusive mother, no father in the picture, or if the ex-boyfriend is in the picture, he's a no good bum. What kind of living can you make, to support yourself and a child? What kind of life can you give this child? Contrary to popular believe, kids do need dads. It doesn't sound like your mother is very supportive of you now, as a regular old teenager -- how do you think she will react to the news of a baby. What kind of life can you have, with a newborn at 16. You'll have to go to work full time, and likely put the baby in daycare all day long. Plus, if you want to go to college, that's hard enough, without adding a baby to the mix. Sometimes mothering isn't about raising that child, but about giving it a better life than you can give it. Case in point, my daughter Taylor is adopted. Her birthparents were a young (24) married couple with two small children. They were having marital issues, and had separated. He beat her, and she wouldn't stand for it. Soon after they separated, she found out she was pregnant. Together they decided that there marriage wasn't going to work out, and that finding an intact, two parent home for this new baby would be the best thing they could do for her. They did that. It wasn't that they didn't love her, or that it wasn't hard. They do love her, and it is hard. But they did what was best for this baby, not for them. I tell Taylor's birthmother often that she is a good mother to all her children, even though she chose different paths for them. In light of their marital situation, what they decided to do for this baby was very responsible. I have to say, not that it matters any, that it's becoming clearer and clearer to me at least, that you probably are a troll -- because you never actually answer any of the questions in the helpful posts, or even in the unhelpful posts. You just go off on tirades about how misunderstood you are, and how we all hate you. Early on in discussions, you were asked several questions -- all of which you've ignored. If you answered any of the questions we might actually believe that you are really in trouble and need help, rather than just bored and looking to talk to someone. 1. How late is your cycle? 2. Do you have access to a Planned Parenthood? 3. Do you have a home pregnancy test in your possession. 4. Take the test and see what it says, and let us know. Without the answer to this one simple question, all we are ALL doing, yourself included, is banging our heads against a brick wall. -- Jamie & Taylor Earth Angel, 1/3/03 Check out Taylor Marlys -- www.MyFamily.com, User ID: Clark_guest, Password: Guest Become a member for free - go to Add Member to set up your own User ID and Password Handmade Baby Blankets -- www.geocities.com/digit_the_cat/Blankets.html |

Since each month lengths vary, that seems a little odd to me. i've talked to one of my friends about the planned parenthood thing and she said there's one somewhere around here..and me and her talked about it..and she said that if i needed anything that i should tell her..and she can help me,...... Planned Parenthood has a sliding scale based on income, so you should be able to get a pregnancy test for a pretty small amount. -- JennP. mom to Matthew 10/11/00 remove "no........spam" to reply |

hi...my name is krystle i'm 15..and i think i might be pregnant. Short answer: take a test Long answer: Living in limbo sucks. I was 19 when I was in the same place as you. I didn't test and lived in fear and worry for 7 months. I didn't go to the doctor and avoided my parents. 7 months of feeling sorry for myself, seven long months. And I think what bugs me the most is that my parents were upset for about a week. A week! And I spent 7 months with only their reaction and what the heck am I going to do running in my head 24-7! Test. Maybe you aren't and you are all the wiser now. Or maybe you are and it's time to move on to the next worry. Test, all the other stuff to freak out over can wait a few minutes until after the test. Five minutes of worry while you test vs how long now? that you've been freaking out? Test! Really I have aall the love and hugs for you right now! You are one step ahead of where I was in that situation, you are reaching out. btdt. Laurel birthmother to Bj and mommy to Juliet |
