Hello, my name is Stephanie and I actually found this site by accident but am very glad I did. It is a wonderful place for young girls and women to go to talk about feelings they are experiencing. I was just 16 when I found out I was pregnant

still a junior in high school. I delivered my son 13 days before my 17th birthday(he was 5 weeks early). It has definatly been a long, hard, struggle up-hill but I'm happy to say we've made it!

I got married in April of my senior year, had my first daughter the following January 19th (she wasn't due until March 14th, she was 8 weeks early) I was married to my first husband for 7 years when things fell apart

My son was 7 and my daughter was 6(or soon to be 6). I remarried and my new husband and I were expecting our baby September 15th,but came on July 10th, 10 weeks early.So with ALL the babies arriving way too early we decided not to have anymore children. I was on the Depo shot and breast-feeding my new baby girl when GOD intervened and gave us our last blessing. A baby girl who was born on September 11, 2001 (she to came 6 weeks early). I had many scares with her and know my life would not be complete without her, even though she was extremly unplanned by me and my husband (my last 2 are just 14 months and 1 day apart) she was well planned by GOD. I had to have a cerclage put in my cervix at 15 weeks because I was dialated to 2cm, but that still didn't stop her from arriving 6 weeks early. After all that and against better judgement I had a tubal and wish I had never done it. I love my children with all my heart and soul. Christian will be 15 in September, Tiffanie will be 14 in January, Taylor will be 5 in July, and My baby, Chloe will be 4 in September. Some people tried to pressure me into an abortion 15 years ago and I am so happy I made my own decision to have my child even at such a young age, he is one awesome teenager. All I can say is GOD has truly blessed me and continues to bless me daily. Oh by the way I am 31 years old now with 4 great kids and a wonderful husband.
Much love and prayers to all,
Stephanie
Mommy of 4
