Pregnancy - Teens Support Group

This community is dedicated to the experience of being pregnant as a teenager. Pregnant teenagers face many of the same obstetrics issues as women in their 20s and 30s. However, there are additional medical concerns for younger mothers, particularly those under 15 and those living in developing countries.

I have been reading and I am freaking out! I had an ab in sep. (I was forced into it & was in my 2nd trimester) and I am devastated that my baby is gone... My bf and I have been trying again for a couple months now, Its happened so easy last time. I am panicking thinking that there is something wrong with me. What if I am broken and I can't get pregnant again. I have heard about the infections. I went for a check up after the ab and there wasn't anything wrong, I haven't been back to the doctors since. I am freaking out, what if I am broken? what if there is something wrong and I cant get pregnant again? I am desperatly waiting for an appointment to see a new doctor, the waiting lists are so long. My mother who forced me into the ab, refuses to return my calls, I want to see my family doctor which is really close to her. I just want the doctor to tell me that everything is ok and that I can get pregnant. This is eating me alive! I am so mad. I am stressing out so much, that might be why I am not concieving, I just want to be put at ease. I want to be pregnant again. Has anyone else gotten pregnant after having an abortion?

ohh hun it will all work out. they say its harder to conceive another child. my tips are to increase eating to 1500-2000 calories a day-healthy eating. and start taking prenatal vitamins so you get nutrients and vitamins in case you fall pregnnt the baby will have enough nutrients. and also study your cycle if you are regular this chart will tell you when you are ovulating http://www.askdramy.com/ovulationcalc.html i hope i helped you and i hope your dream of becoming a mom comes true. btw dont stress that could be a reason you arent conceiving.

I am eating well, I started as soon as we decided to try again & I have been taking my prenatal vitamins since then as well. I am reallt trying to calm myself. I was charting my cycles but I found that watching the calendar was way too stressing for me, so we just started doing it everyday, so we wont miss my cycle. I am praying it will happen this month, my b-day is coming up and finding out that I am expecting would make a wonderful b-day present.

you might want to try an ovulation kit. It will help you time when your ovulating.
And you shouldnt stress yourself out so much, a lot of people who are perfectly healthy take more then a year of trying to get pregnant, it doesnt mean something is wrong. Just relax a little, buy an ovuation kit and enjoy trying=P

an ovulating kit doesn't sound bad. id try it. after an abortion people tend to stress, it's tough. especially being forced. but i promise your not broken. i really do. my mom is a nurse so if you have any questions i could probably answer them for you. add me sometime, i really want to be here for you.

Thanx, Maybe an ovulation test will help. I found that charting was stressing me out to much, so we just started doing it everyday that way we cant miss my cycle :) I have also heard that green tea and chaste berry tea can help. & I am considering pre-seed lube. I am trying not to stress, so Maybe this will be the month.
