Teenage Mom?
I’m new to this. Voicing how I feel in a public setting. I usually keep what I think a secret. But I eventually have to let it out. Have to take the weight off my shoulders. When you’re with someone for a long period of time you think you know them. Until you don’t. Until they become the polar opposite of who you fell for 3 years 4 months and 5 days ago. You love them. They love you. Everything is GREAT! You meet online as most couples do this day in age. You meet. Go on a whimsical 12 hour date. Just spend the day together. It was almost too good to be true... and it is... only much later. 10 months and 1 week into the relationship you find out you’re pregnant. You’re 16 he’s 19 and you think you can take on the world. I cried. Over and over again. My life is over. I’m only 16, a sophomore in high school. I have a life to live, I have to graduate, go to college, make a life for myself. Not create one when I’m a child myself. What will your best friend think? What will their parents think? What will YOUR parents think? What is your life going to be now? Caring for a child while going to school. Going to have to get a job... diapers are expensive. Are you going to breastfeed... bottle feed? What kind of formula will they eat if I can’t breastfeed? How much clothes do they need? How much are cribs? Where will they sleep? Do I co sleep?
