pregnancy woes

KBritton62313

I think might very well be pregnant I'm kind of excited but still worried.. I'm only 22 and I didn't want one so young with my FI... I'm so nervous already feeling tender and sleepy... Anybody understand where I'm coming from..??

Yeah, I do actually.  I was a pretty young mom myself (20).  Have you done a pregnancy test? Simple little bugs and viruses are the bain of many a young bride because all she has to do is throw up and the world wants to know if she is pregnant!

Knowing whether you are or aren't will at least give you peace of mind as far as the situation goes.  The unknown is my biggest demon.  Don't deal well with the unknown.

Ditto what they said.  Find out if you are.

Before you go getting all nervous and/or excited you should probably see if you are actually pregnant.

Pee on the stick.

MelissaJB22

You can't pee on a stick until 4 days before missing your period, and even then it is only 53% accurate.  Wait until you miss a period and then take a test.  It then becomes 99% accurate.  If you take a test too early you could get a false negative.

Exactly. And not to mention the fact that "pregancy symptoms" can be a ton of other things too. There were a few times I missed periods and felt "pregnancy symptoms" but since I was a virgin there was no way I could have been preggo. It was just stress.

OP wait until you know for sure one way or the other before you start freaking out. It's pointless to worry about a problem before it's actually a problem.

abortion/adoption. if your not ready or stable enough do not keep the baby. and use protection! unless you wanted to get pregnant then theres no point of the thread. good luck with your choice

What in the fuuuuck is wrong with you?

She didn't say she wasn't ready or stable enough.  She didn't say she WASN'T using protection.  And there are plenty of threads without a point. 

Jesus fuuuck you're a moron.

Curious.. who defines this for you boomboom? She did not say she wasnt ready, willing, or able to take care of a child just it was unexpected. That was completely out of line. Seriously.

boomboom1243

I'm only 22 and I didn't want one so young with my FI? that sound stable to you or ready? keeping a baby is not an only option and if ur freaking out over maybe being pregnant doesnt sound like they been using protection.  but hey i just speak for my opinions being the same age and could not imagine having a baby now with still finishing college buying a home and planning a wedding.  suggesting options doesnt make people morons maybe insensitive but  more realistic views than have a baby be young end up with a low paying job ending in divorce yada yada yada

J&K10910

Dude, getting pregnant is scary even if you're TRYING.  And plenty of people have their contraception fail.  You are crazy.

Yes, of course there are other options.  I'm quite sure she probably knows that, too. 

And really?  You can tell the future and know she's going to end up with a low paying job and getting divorced, just because she's pregnant at 22?  FFS.

boomboom1243

I don't think that was mean at all, Its the truth. And just as you people don't sugar coat your opinions I will not mine, when it comes to bringing children in the world when the parent is not ready. I think it's irresponsible. so call me mean but its not, people need to be able to take care of themselves before taking care of a baby and although some mothers do become sucessful more do not.  Yes birth control fails if you don't use it right and rarely when it is used right but when it does you need to think about the baby and not yourself.. but yea I'm just crazy so it doesn't matter if the child grows up with drug addictions and in poverty. I see FIRST HAND what happens when young adults have children all because they want to play house.but  saying abortion or adopition is just CRAZY and I'm mean. Dude.

boomboom1243

statistics dont lie

boomboom1243

Again. Jerk no, insensitive and not optimistic yes. But thats my opinion and these are opinion boards but then again you all should know this beccause you share your opinions no matter how bitchy and rude it is hm?

boomboom1243

I did not attack this girl as you are attacking me. so whos the jerk?

J&K10910

Plenty of 30 year olds who think they're ready fuuuck up their kids too.  I know because I see it firsthand.  WTF.

boomboom1243

well yea your right there are many people who shouldnt have kids if they arnt stable just my point

boomboom1243

LOL I'm 12? read your posts girls......

</div><div>WOW Judgemental much? I take GREAT offense to this as I was pregnant young..baby at 21, single mother at 22, nursing career established at 26 ending with a VERY well paying job. Own a home, a car, a dog. I mean should I continue on? Oh not to mention engaged to an incredible man. All while planning a wedding. Imagine that.</div><div>
</div><div>What a piss poor assumption you have of young mothers. </div><div>

Well, I had  before 22 (first at 18, second at 21, third at 24), and they are neither impoverished or drug addicted, so thanks for that.

Oldest is currently a college student with a full-time management postion job, younger two are high school honors students. I graduated college on the Chancellor's list, bought my own home at 26, no debt and own my own successful business. Obviously I ruined my life since I was freaked out to be pregnant as a teenager.

WHOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAA!!!! Guys thanks for defending me! But I'm quite sure me and the baby will make it!! As for you boomboo,1243... I see that you have a lot of ignorance behind most of your post... Not saying you are ignorant just that you don't know all the facts first hand when it comes down to young parenting. My mother had me at the age of 22, and as did her mother. I wanted to break the number spell because I wanted to be a little older say 26. But i's okay. We will just have to adjust our lives now!! By the way my FI is a US ARMY soldier! He can provide and I'm an accountant.. We can make this work out... Thanks everyone!!
