Wow. I just turned 17, and the night after my birthday my boyfriend and I were a little overly-intimate, and now I'm afraid I'm pregnant. I shouldn't get my period for another week or so, but we slept together right after me ending it, so I'm afraid that I am. I'm always tired, nausea, it's scary. I've already told my boyfriend about my worries, and now he's completely worried too. I don't know what to do, my mom's already said that if I'm pregnant I'm kicked out of the house, she had me at 17, and its not a life that I want. I can't go through an abortion. I just don't know what to do.

I am 17 years old also and pregnant with my second child my first was at 16 I will soon be turning 18 in November. I think your mom should understand that she went thru that and she should help you thru it. Having a abortion is not the right thing it's killing a human. Love your baby and self and don't worry what other people say. If you need advice write me, Aloha Whitney
