If you keep the baby or not know it wont be easy. Everything in your life will change. Talk to your guys parents. Figure what would be best for you and the baby. If you chose to do adoption there is no shame in it. I was 23 when I had my first child and he was planned, I cannot imagine being only 15. Good luck!

I was 15 when I found out I was pregnant and my fiance was also 15. We were still in school but knew that keeping the baby was the right decision for us. I told my mum and dad and they were supportive and they helped us. When my baby was a month old we moved out and got our own place. What I'm saying is you need to talk to your parents and let them know how your feeling. You need to make a decision that's best for you and your baby its only you that can make that decision. I'm now 19 and still with my fiance and our son is 3 years old, keeping him was the best decision I ever made and couldn't imagine life with out him. What ever decision you make just make sure its the right one for the both of you

If its been 14 days since intercourse you would be 4 weeks. They calculate pregnancy from the first day of your period. A lot of people get confused with this. It's a pretty scary thing I was 15 when I fell pregnant and my partner had just turned 17. Everyone pressured me to get an abortion but I didnt. Adoption is a great option if you don't think you could handle having a baby. It was never an option I could consider as I don't think I could handle knowing I have a child out there. It is a very brave and hard decision and your a very strong person if you do consider that. I just want you to no my son is now 21 months old and I'm pregnant with my second. Raising a child is a big responsibilty but it does come with so much joy. Your social life will be effected so much because your life becomes your baby. There are a lot of things you have to think about to choose what's right for you. For when will you start showing, probably not till around 18 weeks however everyone is different and some show earlier or later.

you probably wont start showing for a while it all depends on where baby is positioned etc, sometimes you can start showing a little arond 3 months but with first pregnancies sometimes not until around 4-5 months

Being a young parent is hard but its very possible!! If your bf is 16 he could get a job to support the child and u could live with your parents until u finish school and are also able to get a job. I was 16 when I had my first and my bf worked and we lived with my parents until I also got a job and we were able to move! I applaud u for jumping right to abortion!! That's truely awesome!! Adoption is going to be hard but if its what's best for your child then that's what's best but just know there is always a way to keep your baby if that's what YOU truely WANT!!

Everyone shows at different stages, but don't try to hide it, you need to go ahead and tell your parents and set up an appointment with an ob to make sure everything is okay with you and the baby

well first off you need to sit down and talk to both of your parents. It might not be the best conversation you guys are going to have but you do need to tell them, then you will go from there, depending on how your parents react, you maybe able to keep your baby, if they are supportive, which would be the best outcome for you and your baby, considering adoption is also good as there are lots of wonderful couples that cannot have there own children, open adoption may also be an option as well, dont be shocked if your parents want you to have an obortion either, as this could quite possibly be their first reaction, if thats not an option for you, you need to explain this to them and stick to your guns, dont let them talk you into this if its not what you want, explain to them about your feelings you have for your baby already, and go from there, good luck

How could you possibly know that you are only 2 weeks pregnant? You can't even test until 4 weeks. Most women have to wait until 5 weeks to get a positive.

Talk to your parents for one and weigh your options, adoption is a hard decision to make but if its the best for you all and the child it's a good decision. You have plenty of time to think about it and decide what's best
