Well it's a ton of hard work. Just keep your chin up and keep moving forward. That's how I get through my days lol.

Thanks! Im not really bothered about it being hard work, as my family will help as much as they can, But im a little scared about what people are going to be saying about me o.0

There will be some negative comment, most of which you will not hear. Hold your head high, smile a lot, look people in the eye and repeat as often as you like "We are pro-life in my family. My family and friends are working with me to make this a positive experience." There is no need for excuses or explanations. Good luck!

mumtobe: there will always be someone with something useless to say. even if you were the "perfect" age with unlimited money. just ignore the bad stuff. my advice is don't forget the prenatal vitamins! good luck and congrats!

Even with family support... it's freaking hard. When I was pregnant people would shout "s___t!" at me when I walked down the street, a lot of people couldn't talk to me anymore because their parents didn't want them hanging out with "whores." Now that my daughter is born people constantly think I am completely incapable of raising my child properly. Everyone always has to add their two cents about everything I do. Basically you just gotta ignore it, move past it and be confident about what you're doing.

Well, when you say your family is behind you 100% does this mean they will take full 100% financial responsibility for your baby, including child care while you finish up your 4 years of high school? If so, you are a very lucky girl! Advice...join a teen pregnancy group at school. Talk to your counilors and teachers at school and work out a plan of support with them as well. Good luck!

I applaud you for deciding to give your baby life. You'll hear lots of negativity, but stand strong. You're lucky to have your family support. Try to take it one step at a time-one day at a time-one foot in front of the other. And try not to get overwhelmed. If it does get to be too much or you think adoption is your best choice (not saying that it is) there are so many families out there that will love your child with all that they are. Open adoption is a great choice because it allows you to still be in your child's life without the responsibility of parenting. Good luck and again, you've made a wonderful choice in giving your baby life. If adoption is an option, please let us know ms42721 on Y!

Okay this is just getting creepy, it's like people are coming on here to harvest you guys' babies. No offense if that's not the case but God doesn't it seem like it. That one person came on with great words but then makes a comment like "we're looking to adopt, consider adoption." Now this person says pretty much "Good job on deciding not to abort, but hey if it gets hard and you can't handle it, there's adoption. Oh yeah if that's the road that you choose, contact us." Key words "Us" didn't say contact me for support, but said contact us????? This is really freaking me out. I mean I don't have to worry personally but for someone to be soliciting adoption situations to teen and underaged girls-that's just fishy and scary! If this keeps on going on, I swear I'm gonna have to open a can of whoop a__s. I mean I know it just sounds harmless, but something just rubs me the wrong way.

LOL harvesting babies!!

Hell don't it seem like it though? Two different people have popped up in like the last two weeks who bring an old thread back and then start saying really sweet supportive stuff and then mention the options. Then they post to like 3 or 4 other threads and each one gets a little more aggressive, ending with something like, "hey you could always give your baby up for adoption, it's good for people who can't have babies, oh and they have open adoption, if this interests any of you pregnant teens in the teen pregnancy forum please contact me-I'm looking to adopt." I've heard some bad stories about stuff like that. Dude one of those chicks who cut a baby out of a woman's stomach, started out doing stuff like this. Something is wrong with the picture and I'm not trying to diss any woman who is desperate to love a child, but this is targeting vulnerable underaged pregnant girls. When you are a healthy normal person wanting to adopt you go to an agency, and there are many out there that run all kinds of different ways. Why would someone come on here asking the most confused posters (some not even mentioning wanting to give their baby up) come on here and have these girls contact them? Something is fishy there. I may be wrong and may be paranoid but this is either an adoption agency, or a crazy person who is desperate to get some unknowing young girl to agree to something she doesn't fully understand hence why they aren't going through an adoption agency! So anyone reading this, just be careful. Especially if you are pregnant! There are crazy people out there who go to unimaginable lengths and if something happens they can pa__s it off as you guys being just another statistic disappearing-maybe you ran away. You guys have babies to protect, don't get to cozy and be cautious of anything out of sorts. This is out of sorts. Hold on to your bellies girls!!!!

I agree V, it is pretty creepy. This girl seems like she's not even questioning giving up her baby, saying she's excited and having a username like "mumtobe." She's treating babies like they're leftovers "Ey, you done with that baby? I've been craving one." It just doesn't seem entirely safe and it's hard to believe any sane person would go online looking to adopt children. Look online at an adoption agency? Sure... but for the children themselves?? Or even worse, the mothers of the children themselves! The other girl who posted seemed like she was just trying to promote the idea of adoption until she gave out her personal information...that seemed a tad weird. Maybe if she had given out information for a good adoption agency, or an 800 number that could help them find one... but like... Yeah. It must be baby harvesting season lol

Someone really should start policing this site. I'm really starting to think that psychos are stalking this site. First thought is this, all this baby harvesting is happening around the same time as ident_ty theft! THen at the same time I thought about you and came to this conclusion. What if someone has come on here and talked to you, you gave them your myspace info and added them on myspace and they are the ones that stole your pictures and used them for another profile and that pregnancy p___n thing. What if someone on here is really a full on fake and doing a bunch to get personal info for some really creepy plot? It wouldn't be that hard.

 

amanda17 - November 18

That would be one messed up freaking person.... (s)he just wants to watch us squirm! Except I know the pictures were from photobucket because there were links and some that I didn't post on MySpace. That website has scarred me for life..... I wish I'd never looked!

 

V9653 - November 18

I can't even imagine! The pregnancy fetish thing was news to me. I always knew that some guys like to have s_x with pregnant chicks and not just because they can't get pregnant LOL! God I got hit on sooo much when I was pregnant!!! And they were so grotesquely forward about their intentions. 80% of the time I was right next to my boyfriend and they didn't even care!! Crazy, but yeah I am almost curious but not enough to look. I mean I understand why your guy is attracted to you when you're pregnant but a fantasy website featuring pregnant chicks-ummm....yeah....okay?

 

amanda17 - November 18

Haha oh man--- I always say I never realized how much attention I got from guys until I got pregnant! They wouldn't touch me with a ten foot pole. I used to always say "I get along with guys better, they're just so much nicer" Nooooo they aren't lol. They just wanted to get in my pants! There was one guy who I guess is totally in love with me or something before I got pregnant, he was saying how he thinks a woman carrying a baby is really s_xy because she's willing to go through allllll that c___p to bring a life into the world and I guess it's especially appealing when it's unplanned... thus the teen pregnancy fetish thing. Anyway thankfully that website was completely shut down, and to my knowledge the owners were arrested. That website had everything, teen pregnancy, CHILD PORNOGRAPHY!, stolen pictures whether they be of fully clothed women or some girl probably taking pictures for her boyfriend. Pretty much anything REALLY disgusting and highly illegal you could have found on that site. Seriously... it was freaking disgusting. And there were people posting comments on the pictures asking the submitters if they could get more pictures or information on that particular person. Some of them wanted to know their names, hobbies, what kind of person they were [nice, b___hy, whatever], even their myspace links! Like internet stalkers!!
