Contraception - finding out -Telling my parents - Birth story     

    My Story

( NOTE-This story is really personal. It has taken me a while to put it up here. But I hope by me speaking out that it my story will be able to help someone else.)

My two close friends and I went out one night to get something to eat. I of course picked Burger King. My ex-boyfriend works there. So I hoped him seeing me would make him miss me more, and we could get back together. Well, after we arrived I could see my retarded plan was not working.  So when these two guys pulled in to the parking lot where we had been sitting outside talking I began to flirt big time since my ex-boyfriend was outside smoking. One of them offered me a ride in his car. Of course I agreed and told my friends we would meet up at Redondo. As we drove away he offered me a drink from his cup that he had gotten at Burger King. By the time we got to Redondo I couldn't feel my body. We started kissing, then he was on top of me. He started saying things to me but I couldn't talk. I just mumbled " a huh." Finally some lights shined into our car and he was telling me to put on my clothes. From what I remember I told my friends I had sex. But I couldn't remember. I couldn't even walk. I don't remember anything from there. I ended up some how at my friends house and I spent the night. From then on I pushed it from my mind and totally forgot about it.  Well until my period was late!

 FINDING OUT

 

Lately my friends had commented on how sleepy I had been and how cranky I was over little things. One keep joking and saying "Are you pregnant" I knew the answer had to be no. But after I missed my period I went to the store and took a test, I wanted to prove to myself I wasn't pregnant and to be able to say for sure to my friends that no I wasn't pregnant.  

 The whole time I took the test I didn't look at it once. I am not sure why, Maybe I was afraid it was going to be positive. But after the three minutes was up I looked over and there was 2 bright pink lines. I couldn't move. I was in shock.   So after leaving there I went to my friends house and took another test. I just knew the first test had to be wrong. But after it came up positive too I called Life choices and made a appointment there to find out for sure.  Yet I all ready believed in my heart I was pregnant.

Telling my parents

 After the appointment with Life Choices I knew I had to tell my parents. I could not face them, so after 2 weeks of trying I left a note and headed to work. At work I couldn't think, I was just waiting for the phone call. Finally a couple hours later my dad called. He said " we can work through this" that night we had a long talk. 

From the moment I knew I was pregnant abortion was not an option. So next I had to figure out what I was going to do. Be a single mom or place my baby up for adoption.
