For a girl who has always had irregular periods being a few days late here or there was never really an issue. But after being over a week late I began to wonder.. So I sent my boyfriend to the store to get a test. Although I sent him I had already got that oh no not me mentality... So after taking the first test I didn't believe it and sent him to the store to get more. He came back with 3... I took another, waited.... It was positive.. Still not believing it I took the last 2... Both came up positive. I walked into my room with all 4 positive tests in hand and gave them to my boyfriend, his response "wow... This is cool!" he is extremely happy, me on the other hand I began to cry, have a panic attack and wasn't able to breath. After I calmed down I still didn't believe it. I can't believe I'm pregnant.. What about school? Work? How am I going to do this? Make a future for a baby when I haven't even created one for myself yet... But I've told myself that I can do this, I'm going to do this! Not that it's going to be easy but I'm determined to make this work. What doesn't kill me makes me stronger right??

It must be overwhelming trying to figure out how to juggle all that's on your plate, but just take it a day at a time. Have you been able to talk with your parents? I am so glad your boyfriend has been supportive. Have you looked up resources around you? They can help you create a plan of action and support you along the way. Try looking up optionline.org and put in your ZIP to access helpful places near you. Your determination is great. I am already proud of you! Thank you for commenting on this article post.
