Re: 8 moths pregnant at 17 and all by myslef...please help. - May 28th 2011, 06:29 PM

I'm just going to say what I would personally do in this situation. I would give the baby to adoptive family. There are so many families that want a healthy new born, that can afford them, that are ready to give them all the love, support, toys, education and so on that they need. You are saying yourself that you worry about how this baby will grow up. You say you aren't worried about money but money just gets harder when a baby comes. Plus you want to go to school. It's going to be twice as hard for you to get through school, job, just live a normal life with a child. Plus if the father is not in there life… well children deserve both parents.

Children are not suppose to be born with a job. It's your responsibility to provide and care for the child. Your right and you need to do what is best for this baby. Loving your child is doing what is best for them no matter how hard the decision is. Are you ready to be a mom for life? You still have your life ahead of you.

But as what is said above, there is no programs for young mothers. But that does not mean that the child will grow up how you want them to. But you can look into them see what they are all about and what they provide. Family planning is a great idea. They will give you all your opinions that you have. There is open adoption too. But being 8 months a long you should probably start deciding on what your going to do.

I may get some flack about what I said in my first paragraph. Yes I personally do feel that you should give your baby is a family. But it is your choice. I'm speaking from my experiences. I'm 23 and got a adoration. Sure I think about my baby sometimes and get teared up about the decision I made. But I also knew it was what is best for my baby. I was not ready to raise a child. Money, job, education, mentally, and the baby's father. I knew my baby wouldn't have the life they should if I would had went through with my pregnancy. I tend to believe very strongly in what I said and I'm sorry if I offended anyone. I will forever and always love my baby and I know they will never hate me for what I did. my little one. <3

If you need anything feel free to get a hold of me.
