- Respectful Words Only- My Story

[ShaneeaL]

Please dont judge
I am 17
Graduate this Saturday
Turn 18 next Wednesday
I feel alone.
Im 7 weeks along writing a semi poem about my struggle of perfection
when only a year ago I aborted Nyla and cried, why didnt he save me? Why didnt he save us? No. He waited until i stumbled to the car, numb and dead. I was gone.
Now im here. A year later, 7 weeks along. About to go graduate then head to college in September.
Im keeping this baby with all my might.
I prayed and rejoiced when I saw the result, but I was alone. Im engaged to Nyla's father again. I mourn her alone.
His family is happy I kept this one, but my side is unknown to the new life thats growing inside of me daily.
Im scared to lose this one and my family.
Im heartbroken
Please dont judge me.
(They'll know by July, as long as my cowardice doesnt overcome me)

I was pregnant with my first child when I was 15 my mother through me out on the street. I had went to my father who had been disappointed but was there for me he was batteling cancer which later passed that year. But I couldn't let him take care of me and a child as he was suffering the baby's father wanted nothing to do with me. So after awhile I got super depressed and decided to have an abortion I am now 23 and I still think about the decsion I made. Even though I was 15 I would have done everything in my power to be a good mother. I am Noe a mother of 1 little girl and a little boy on the way and been with NY husband for 5 years. Please don't dwell on what people think of u because at the end of the day it's you the has to suffer mentally emotionally. I still think about my choice every day with lots of regret. You can be a college student and be a mom and even work plenty of strong women out there that take care there. And that's what makes u a better women an mother. Wishing you nothing but the best. Dont le anyone judge u or make your life long choices.

I became pregnant with my first child when I was seventeen.  My parents were not supportive.  So know you're not alone.  Sometimes the unexpected happens, no matter how well you plan.

I know having your family turn its back on you hurts, I know because I had it happen to me.  I'm happy though that your boyfriend and his family loves you and supports you.  It's going to be hard, so I'm sending you a lot of internet hugs.

To be honest i lost a lot of family when I told them I was pregnant. I'm 20 my first child was still born and I was 13 at the time. That child had been a rape baby and I loved her nevertheless. Now and now I'm 11 weeks pregnant with my boyfriend and my baby when he/she is born I will be 21. But remember this for every person who leaves your life opens up a spot for someone else. As long as you have your baby anything is possible best of wishes and stay strong this is a long and difficult road. Feel free to message me on this if you want to talk about it. I wish you the best of luck and stay strong you can do this

Don't be so hard on yourself! I'm a ftm im 18 will be 19 when my baby is born, my husband and I have gone thru so much trouble in our 2 years of being together, his family is super excited and my parents want nothing to do with our child. Although we got married first before having a baby the pain of losing my family is hard. I don't know what an abortion feels like but I saw my mother go thru a miscarriage. Be happy about your pregnancy! It's a blessing. You graduated and that also is a great accomplishment! If your family decided to abandon you or anything know you have you and the baby and the other family supporting you!
