hello im 13

[tinymommy]

hello, i am having a lot of trouble with my family. i a 13 and pregnant with my first baby. i am having a boy. my mom is trying to get me to give him up for adoption since i refused to get an abortion. i am a lot more mature than other girls my age. i read parenting magazine every single month, i write down all of the information inside of my notebook so i can look at that if i ever need help with something. i guess i am just wondering if you all think that i can do it. and if you guys have any advice at all for me. are boys harder than girls? i wanted a boy, i am soooo happy that i am having a boy. the father of the baby is really supportive. he has been helping me so much, and buying stuff for my little man. so, mommys, what advice can i soak up from you? i am so excited to be apart of parenting!!

I really really hope you're just trolling here

[tinymommy]

i dont actually know what you mean when you say trolling. i am being honest and just wanting some advice from other moms...sorry if i am bothering you

[Disco Lemonade]

Ummm yeah. I hope you’re a troll, if not. Just be prepared to give up your social life for your child. Be responsible and if you don’t want to give your baby up then DON’T. Forget about friends and hanging out its not going to happen anymore. I know there’s a possibility that you’re a troll, but then again I think about my 14 yr old cousin that got pregnant. So yea, If your keeping the baby just be responsible about it dame it. And keep your legs closed dammit!

Wow i will admit your pretty young to take on that kind of challenge. Im 19 and struggling so it will only be harder for you. As to your question boy and girls are more harder in different areas. Look it up

I don't think that it is possible for a thirteen year old to become a mother. I am sorry to say that to you, but it's the truth. I remember, during my pregnancy, a girl posted about being pregnant at a young age, I think 13 or 14....and I was like, "You can do it, you just have to........blah blah blah" I argued with the women on here, and then I had my son. I was completely wrong. You really can't do it, mentally. I am 18, and I can proudly say that I have done a great job with my son, but I have given up so much of my life for him. That is what you have to do. Give up you for him. Thirteen year olds can't do that. You guys throw temper tantrums and go to dances and hang out with your friends. You aren't supposed to changed 15 diapers a day, get peed on constantly, bathe them every other day, get up every one or two hours during the night for months straight. You are the child. You aren't supposed to HAVE a child!! Whatever you do, good luck to you. If you do keep your baby, please please please be good to him. They are very precious beings. Not a baby doll.

Omg and there are nights and days they will get you angry, but please don’t take it out on them, they don’t know they’re making you angry. See my daughter Abby is a little stunt devil and try’s to climb and break everything, there are days I feel like giving her "pow pow" on her butt, but I am an adult and I know she's just a baby, but like Jen says your the baby here and you might not know how to control your anger. Ladies my 14 yr old cousin was caught spanking her 4 month old baby. I told my mom let me not see her because I swear to god I will break her face!

I'm 27, 4 and a half months pregnant and I don't feel like I'm completely prepared! at 13 a regular girl cannot even take care of a puppy, let alone another human being.

tinymommy it doesn't sound like your mom wants to raise another baby, and that's the only way this would work. Babies need adults to take care of them! You say the daddy is supportive, but he hasn't had to take care of a baby yet. How will you feed and clothe the baby? You're too young to get a job. A library full of parenting information isn't going to give you the maturity and patience required to raise a child.
Sometimes being a good mother means making the hard choice . . . and loving your baby enough to give it a better chance in life, even if that means you aren't the one who can give it to him.

You should thank your lucky stars you are not my daughter.

For the love of god, give that baby up for adoption. Its only fair to that poor child.
