My Teen Pregnancy

I am 17 and 6 months pregnant with a precious baby boy named Bradley. My pregnancy has been such a scary and wonderful experience, I never expected to be a mom, its coming way too fast! Even though my teenage party life is over, a new and wonderful life as a mom is just beginning, I went from staying out late and partying with my friends to staying at home and reading bed time stories to Bradley. I wouldn’t trade it for the world. Feeling him kicking and punching away may hurt but it lets me know he’s doing okay, that's really all that matters. My clothes barely fit anymore I feel like I’m walking around with a soccer ball hidden under my shirt. I was very nervous to start school again, its nice to be around people and keep busy. The bus ride may be very bumpy and long but it gets me to where I need to be. I never cared about school, not one bit but now with a little boy on the way I have to take every second of class seriously, it’s the hardest thing I will ever have to do, haha. I’m pretty proud of myself even though some people talked me down and told me I’d never make it, I think I’m doing pretty good. Im excited for this new challenge, being a single parent will be exhausting, but I am very confident that I will do a great job,because now I have a real reason to live and wake up every morning. Sometimes I wish the baby’s father was around to help me out, but you can't always get what you want right? I guess some people can't handle responsibility. I really hope Bradley looks like me, ahh, I cant wait to dress him up in tiny outfits and kiss him all over!
