Hey, Im 19 and i'm pregnant. I wasn't trying though. It just happened. Like everyone said take the ovulation test. If I had taken it I probably wouldn't be pregnant because I still think i'm a little young. But take the test and try not to think about it so much.

And yes 15 is way toooo young for a baby!

hi everyone,

i am only new to this so i hope this works. i am 19 years old and got the implamon in my arm early last year and then had it removed a few months later as i was having quite a lot of bleeding and i tried taking the pill to try to regulate it or stop it all together. that worked for a few and then bleeding started all the time so had it removed.
my husband and i have been trying to have a baby for the past 5 months and still nothing has happened. i am having mormal periods every 18 days for 5-6 days.
is this normal and is there anything i can do to help it along as its really frustrating me?

cheers sonia

Hey i'm 15 years old and i am in an 8 month relationship. My boyfreind is a few years older than me. I feel the urge of having a baby but then i think of the consequences and of my career. We have unprotected sex but he pulls out immediately. Am i in a risk of getting pregnant? My boyfriend loves me and he tells me that i am too young to have a baby and that i should think of my careerbut i love him so much that i want to settle down with him.

15 is very young but no one can say your not ready. Its all about how you feel. And I understand that you want someone who is gonna always be in your life but trying to get pregnant at 15 is not the way to go. Bringing a baby into the world is a very big deal. And you gotta think whats best for your baby. Can you honeslty provide for the baby yourself? Can you move out and into your own place? Can you work to support yourself and a child? How do you know that when you do get pregnant that your bf wont leave you? ask yourself these questions and when your able to answer them correctly then you will be able for a baby! best of luck to you!

I am 18 and me and my boyfriend want a baby. We are waiting a couple months but I just stopped my birth control in preparation. Any tips?

I've been married for 16 years and been longing to have a baby. I've been dreaming of having my own child, one that I can take care of. Give my time, effort and most of all my love and affection. Because I believe in having a child one should be ready to take the responsibility. A lifetime responsibility. So I think at your age, and with the reasons you've been sharing, I think you're still young to have one. Why not try to enjoy life. Maybe it's not yet time.

I completely disagree that a 15 year old that has only been dating a guy for 4-5 months should be trying for a kid (especially for selfish reasons as those). You shouldn't even be seeing a Doc about "infertility" problems until you have been trying for over a year. If I were you, I would wait till your our of school. I was with one of my ex's for nearly 4 years. Being with someone for 4-5 months will not determine if you will be with this boy for the rest of your life. If you are afraid of being alone maybe get a dog? It sounds more like you are trying to trap your boyfriend having a baby wont secure him to you; ALSO, if you are not ready for a child (and are enable to meet it's needs) the child can be taken from you. I'm not trying to be hard on you, I am being honest. You seem like you are to young and immature to handle another being's life. Just let yourself be a teen. Grow and learn. Someday you will make a good wife.

I have been trying for a baby for over a year now. I have been seeing a doctor (as has my husband). So far all or results have come out normal. I am very healthy. I am 5'5'' and weigh 113 lbs. I exercise everyday (I focus on triathlons). I eat pretty healthily. I avoid caffeine. I also don't smoke, nor do I drink. I calender my cycle (so I do know about the time of which I ovulate/which it is hard to miss).

My husband is in the Military. He will, once again, be deployed over seas in 2011. When he returns, he plans to enter the Army's Special Forces. My husband is also i great physical shape. Though he doesn't drink, he, however, does smoke.

Usually we focus on the missionary position (said to provide the deepest penetration). However we have tried other 'techniques.' After sex I usually fold and place a pillow beneath my bum (elevating it/for 15-20 min) hoping that it will aid the seamen closer to the cervix. Sometimes my husband will make provocative gestures (or ill use a vibrator while using the pillow) hoping to open more of a leeway. I know stress is a huge prevention factor when it comes to conceiving (but I have no idea what you home life is like so).

To balance out my hormones, I'll usually take one flaxseed pill once a day (alone with nuts and avocados). I also take prenatal vitamins that the military provided for me.

So far we have had no luck, which has been extremely frustrating. We really hope that we will be able to conceive before he deploys again.
Anyway... I figured since you asked for some more 'tips' I'd give you some of the strategies that I have been using. If anyone has any other ideas I would be more than happy to hear them!!!! Hope to hear from you all sooooooon! Thanks!

WOW! 15? HALF YOUR WORDS WERE SPELLED INCORRECTLY DO YOU WANT YOUR BABY TO BE AS STUPID AS YOU? GROW UP, GET MARRIED, GET A JOB, GET A HOUSE THEN DECIDED IF YOUR READY TO RAISE A CHILD. EITHER WAY TRY TO OCCUPY YOUR TIME WITH REALISTIC ENDEAVOR'S NOT IRRATIONAL ONES. BY THE WAY IT'S CHILDREN LIKE YOU WHO FEED OFF THE SYSTEM YOU TURN 19 YOU HAVE A HALF DOZEN KIDS AND GO ON WELFARE THAT WOULD BE THE ENTIRETY OF YOUR LIFE IF YOU CHOOSE TO HAVE A CHILD NOW.
