I’m pretty sure I’m pregnant, I’m only 19, turning 20 in the 7th month of the year. The guy that I may be pregnant by is not the best, but I cant help that. I told my mom and siblings I think I’m pregnant, my mama did not freak out, nor did my sister or little brother, but my older brother told me he’s gonna kill my child if I am. I know I might be young but if I am pregnant the last thing I wanna do is kill it or have it killed by someone else. I actually want a kid and it doesn’t matter what age I am when I have it. Children are a blessing. What hurts the most is that my own brother would say such a thing to me, I don’t wanna claim him at all anymore. I have no friends, one of my cousins just died in a fatal wreck and I feel as I’m losing everyone whether they’re dead or alive. I’m starting to think I don’t need to be alive, I don’t wanna be alive, i just wanna die, I cant live life without disappointing people over and over like I have. I’m done, there’s no reason to live.

I feel the first thing you must do is distance yourself and your unborn child from your brother if you believe he is a legitimate threat to your welfare. I realize you may feel there is nowhere else for you to go, but there is assistance available (perhaps government help of some kind). Don’t be hesitant about getting the authorities involved as well if you deem it necessary.
The fact that you have a positive outlook on your pregnancy shows that you can be a good, loving parent. That is all that matters. Do whatever you must do in order to provide a good life for you and your child. Best wishes.

Ok first things first you do have to get away from your brother … And secondly you can do this! I had my son when I was 15 years old.., the dad spilt and I have been doing it on my own since then …I was able to graduate high school and go on to have a pretty good career… Do not give up… There is a lot of help out there for single moms …. I know you feel lost and afraid and I’m here to tell ya that it’s not easy at all and the world is gonna kick you down sometimes but at the end of the day you will have that amazing little baby that’s gonna love you no matter what and will be blessed to have an amazing strong mother!
Your first step is to verify weather or not your pregnant. If you are congrats. Make sure you let the father know and hopefully he wont run, but be prepared for a less then favorable reaction.
As for your brother, he is probably reacting to your situation and overtime should come around. If you do feel he is a real threat to your baby once its born then get away from him if you can.
As for your mom and other siblings not freakin out could be for a couple different reasons. 1. They suspected it already or 2. they want to be supportive and keep calm so you don’t react to their reactions.
Being that you’re a adult I do suggest if you are pregnant, to apply and get (if in the USA) WIC, state insurance, food stamps, section 8 and/or public housing.
Good luck ????
The ???? After good luck was supposed to be a smiley face.
