Hello. I'm pretty worried right now and I don’t know what to do. I'm 18 year old female and just recently I have found out that I'm six months pregnant. I don’t know a lot about these things and thought that my irregular menstrual bleedings are caused by some normal hormonal disbalances but I was wrong. When I noticed some signs such as enlargement and soreness of the breasts, nausea and vomiting I have contacted my gynecologist and after an ultrasound he has determined that I'm in my six month of pregnancy.
What should I do? If my father finds out about this-He will kill me!

Well, I understand you stressful this situation can be and I will try to help you with some information.
Well, you have probably aware of the fact that now is too late for abortion. Don’t you even think about this option because, in this country, you can do almost everything for the right amount of money- but your life would be seriously ingeperdissed?
So you will have to keep this baby. The most logical move is to tell your parents all about this because it’s miracle they didn’t notice this before. Like I said- talk with them and see what your options are.
Next person you should talk to is the father of that baby. With some luck and good will- this all could end up just fine.

Your situation sounds exactly like mine. I was on the depo shot for years so i had no period. I went for a routine physical for my job at the hospital and nothing was said about pregnancy. I took three at home tests cause i felt kinda tired all time but they were all negative. So finally i went into my gyno for my shot and she told me i was preg. I set up an ob appt and just by looking the doc said maybe two months, but he heard a heartbeat!! I was near seven months along. I guess I felt the kicking all along but just thought of it as gas pains and cramps from my shot. Crazy!! i didnt know what to do or who to tell first!! They part that scared me the most was the fact that I had just turned twenty=one and was out all the time drinking and smoking like a train.. But luckily the baby was fine and she is now a bright eyed 2 year old. Just stand up and tell your parents. There really is nothing they can do about it.
Either support you or not. Which I believe they will. they may be a little angy at you at first but hey its their grandchild they cant be too mad!!!

You should tell your parents for the babies sake. It's gotta be hard being so young. But being a young pregnate lady is the thing.There "could" be complications with your pregnancy the younger you are,just like being older (over 35).You are now a parent yourself,So you need to be responsible and grown-up and talk to your parents.They need to know.Parents can help and give you tons of information and help with the pregnancy. Yes, they could be upset at first but they WILL get over it. They will get over it a lot faster when they see your love,concern,devotion to your pregnancy,and responsibility,they will soon enough see there baby girl(you) as a grown up. A parent.It's hard for family members to take on "new roles" your goal should be to take responsibility get educated and make good choices. You will soon enough find especially at the birth things are in a differant prespective for you,you'll have more of a motherly instent and will understand your parents.It's nature. Concentrate on the baby everything else falls in the place at the own time. Hope this helps.Bless you.

How much do you weigh? I just finished my internship and the only cases of unknown pregnancy getting this far along are obese people who would obviously not show.

I dont understand why people think that younger people can't and shouldn't have children? Aslong as they can financially support and emotionally support them.. i don't see why they can't have a child?
Everybody always looks down on young people as if they shouldn't even be allowed to own ovaries or a vagina in that matter, if younger people weren't allowed to give birth then why was they given a uterus, vagina and ovaries to conceive one?

In my honest opinion, i think everybody has the right to there own decisions and mistakes, they shouldn't be told that they are too young to give birth thats complete rubbish...

that is really tough- I got pregnant before I was married (we got married a week after finding out) but I was terrified of telling my mother. She was really upset, as was my whole family (and I was 22), but they were still really supportive and everything worked out in the end. However, if you are young and don't want to keep the baby (and obviously can't have an abortion- which I think is wrong anyway-if you are having sex you need to be responsible enough to deal with the consequences of having sex, otherwise you should not be having sex) you always have the option of giving your baby up for adoption. There are so many people out there who are unable to have children and want to adopt babies, but it is very hard to find one in this country to adopt because of abortions. If you do keep the baby, make sure you have a lot of help from family members, because raising kids is hard work! But if you don't feel you can handle that responsibility right now (don't forget, it's for at least the next 18 years!), you can help both your baby and a loving couple have the family that they desperately want through adoption. Good luck!
