When I See Her Smile

standupgirlHi Becky,

My name is Alisa and I'm 17. I have a 5 month old daughter named Brooklyn, who I love with all my heart. When I first found out that I was pregnant my mom and dad both said that I should just have an abortion. Because I was a cheerleader, I was popular, I was a good student, and I had the world ahead of me. But abortion was NEVER an option for me. I had thought awhile about adoption, but then I said no. I said that this is MY baby and I want to raise this baby as my own. When I told the father I was pregnant he too said don't have it.

Think About What YOU Want

standupgirlDear Becky,

I'm glad that I came across this website to see so many girls from all over the country share their stories, whether it was inspiring or sad, and now I'm writing to share my own..

I found out I was pregnant when I was 17, a senior in high school, I was already at the end of my high school career and was graduating in 2 months. When I found out I was pregnant after taking 4 home pregnancy tests and one at a hospital, it was undeniable that there was a little life growing inside me. I had no idea what to do, my boyfriend at the time did not want to keep the baby, his reason was that we weren't going to be able to support it and if I did, he was going to leave me. My mother didn't want me to keep it either, saying that I was going to be tied down... As for me? I wanted to keep it.

standupgirlHello, my name is amy, I'm 16 and just found out i was pregnant 4 days ago.

I'm very scared and so is my bf.  We actually weren't dating when i got prego, We just hung out & had sex nothing serious.  But then i didn't get my period.. i had had many scares but nothing ever came of them . i thought maybe i couldn't have kids or something.. But then i was late 10 days on my period, i told Evan (the father), And he suggested we get a prego test. I thought it was another scare and i hadn't gotten my period cause of stress or something so i took the test, Not worried at all... But then 4 minutes the longest 4 minutes of my life, and it reads Pregnant..

I'd Do Anything To Take It Back

standupgirlIt's been a month and 10 days since I aborted my baby, and my family would say how strong they thought I was and how well I was coping - I was fine! I'd think about it and sometimes get a little teary but I thought I would be okay. but I realize now I've made the biggest mistake of my life.

Me and my boyfriend found out in October that I was pregnant, and we were scared but so excited. We were making plans about how things would be, how we were gonna be  parents. Ofcourse we had our slight doubts, but then he changed. He talked of how we needed to live our lives, have fun while we're young, have money and do what we want!
