It was a thought that day the doctor gave me the news. I was sitting in the lonely waiting room there was about 4 or 5 people there. No one talking to anyone...just looking at the posters on the wall and glancing out the corner of their eye at everyone else sitting.

My name was called, the doctor running late as usual, I had never thought of having a baby before now. And even then I didn’t want it to happen. The doctor gave me the test and sent me on my way..... I did the test and sent it back. A few days later I got the phone call, I felt a lump in my throat I couldn’t believe it... 15 and pregnant! Now there was me and baby in the world nothing but alone and scared! I must have been confused for about 3 months, I then got the scan it was weird I hadn’t felt so alone before. No-one could know about the baby, I wouldn’t know what to say or how they would react.

9 months on and the baby arrived mum and dad knew by then but they weren’t amused but they were still happy for me. It has been difficult bringing up a child at my age. Jake is now 3 and a lovely little boy.

It appears that there is no one out there to help but really everyone wants to help in some way.

I wouldn’t advise to get pregnant at this age - live your life. I could live mine like I wanted to

Your life is more precious to you and children will come along when your time is right.

I think abortion is good depending on the person. If u absolutely cannot raise a child mentally, phisically either/or...then you should abort. I have a 16 month old and i am only 18 . I had family and i was ready.. some people can't do it and regret it for the rest of their lives. do what's best for u !!

amber2328 agony auntIt sounds like you are on the right path now and your advise is good. Being a pregnant teen is lonely and scary I know I was nineteen and didnt tell my family for six months and everyday I was walking on eggshells and constantly stressed but I had my daughter and she is six now and healthy and happy!

Ileana agony auntI've had twins when i just turned 16, now im almost turning 17 and im 5 months pregnant.

i didnt plan for either of the pregnancies but they happened,

Everyone can get help, theres support groups and parents and everyone who will help etc friends siblings.

Why are you posting this saying there is no help? Do you need advice on where to get some? Or are you trying to scare teenage girls not to get pregnant? Advertising abortion? I'd like to know what the reason for your post was because if any teenage girl out there who's pregnant reads this and things she should abort her baby because there's no help available to her, then that's wrong.

Sorry for my harsh words.
