    To be honest, I would ignor that message from that nunn above, at 17 you are quite old and mature enough to be a fantastic mum.

    You don't need help you have 2 choices keep the baby or don't, if the answer is to keep it good luck and you will have the best years ahead of you, if you are not rady book an appointment at the docs and talk to him about your options

    Just don't stress...

    Maybe if you both would read the rules and regulations of this site, someone could actually read what you are writing. Proper English is a requirement here.

    What do your parents think about it? Have you told them yet? What about the father of the child?

    I would like to know what "Anti-Natal" classes are, as mentioned before. :rolleyes:

    New one to me! Have you heard of these classes?

    They are groups that get together with a trained midwife, learn about birth techniques, breathing techniques and provide pre and post care for the mother

    Does that help you!

    It's actually antenatal, not anti natal.

    As for high fiving each other for being pregnant teens, well, I'm a bit worried about the future generation. :(

    Bottom line, kids are expensive, time consuming and downright difficult to handle at any age. It's so much harder when you are a teen.

    I hope you have a good job, make good money and have allot of support, because they won't be the best years of your life, they will be your hardest.

    Is it possible to raise a child when you're 17 and alone? Yes, but anyone who's done it will tell you that they would have been more careful had they known what it would be like.

    Good luck, you'll need it.

    My only hope is that neither of you "teens" are having twins... you will not survive it.

    Well, if you would had learned the correct spelling, I would have certainly understood. Anti Natal sounded to me like Anti Pregancy classes of some sort. Which might not be such a bad idea at 17.

    Ante Natal however, means a whole different thing. If you are going to correct me and give me information, please help by spelling it right. We don't need another generation of kids that have no concept of the English language, and only know text speak, and little education or respect.

    However, thank you for the information, now that I have the correct spelling, and I will use that for future reference.

    Just a note, I am far from being a Nun. (or Nunn, as you spelled it) I have just got a little more experience than you have yet to gain. :)

    I based my assumption on your atrocious spelling and the use of chat speak. Most 24 year olds I know can spell properly. As evidenced by your post above, you cannot; maybe, not mabie, judging, not juding, thank you, not thank you, I'm, not I'm, I, not I.

    We do have a spell check button for your use, and just so you know, chat speak, text talk, is forbidden on this site.

    But, thank you for correcting me on your age, I stand corrected. :)
