What or who changed my life

Becoming a 16 year old mother changed my heart sentence Becoming a 16 year mother changed my life In more ways than one. I was totally blown away knowing that would take on to devote my time, love, energy, smile, and money to another human being. Motherhood at such a young age was not a box of chocolate. In fact, it is a continuous fun, exciting, and overwhelming learning experience. Nevertheless, being a full-time mother, student. And wage-earner assisted in the astonishing mother I am today.It was a normal happy fall school morning in September of 1993, when I first deiced for the second month in a row I hadnt had my menstrual cycle. catamenial cycles in my world were unpleasant, heavy, unbearable, and caused me to black come on. Noticing another month without my cycle certainly raised a red flag. However, I continued on about my school day. In the blink of an eye the month of October was here. At this point I am feeling alarmed and fearful. After a few weeks pass by, I bulk t o feel very Ill.I began to feel activity Inside my stomach. In this case, feeling punch kicks, rolls, and wiggles were very uncomfortable. My first thought was I have got to e heavy(predicate) The following morning, while getting flying for school I began to vomit all over myself. As I jumped up I experienced an case of syncope. As I recovered from this distasteful experience, I cleaned myself up and headed to school. So for the next four months, I felt terrified to tell my parents, siblings, and even my at hand(predicate) peers what Ive been experiencing.Pregnant at 16 years old was not a dream of mind, but a high school junior with determinations, super athletic skills, and potentials. I vie softball, volleyball, track-star, and captain of the cheer-squad. With all my happenings, I hardly had time to gain weight. I mastered being pregnant, while continuing my education without anyone noticing. Until one Friday evening in February of 1994. I was getting ready for a movie date when my 12 year old twin brother spoiled my evening. Chad Christopher comment was mommy Shanty has a big stomach Like those women In churchMy mother stepped In my room and elect to pop the question. Shanty are you pregnant? I was truly petrified. In response I quickly shouted mol I proceeded with my date night. After Id returned home, my mother pop the question again. Shanty are you pregnant? The look in her eye was appalling. I stared in silence. Her words to me were whats done in the dark will come to light. At this point I advised her that it may be a possibility. So within the week she made an appointment to see the family Physician. It turns out I was 7 h months pregnant.After receiving the distraught unexampleds of my life, I poisonous to my knees and started to cry uncontrollably knowing that this human being would be here in less than three months. I was not ready to be a 16 year old mother. I had plans to attend Nicholls State, majoring In Pediatrics after graduation. Wit h no time to spare I had to prepare for a drastic life changing encounter. For the next, two and a half months I felt relieved, excited, blue, and disappointed all at the same time. My mother suggested that I seek employment.I continued to go to school every day, do my house chores May 9, 1994. I was awakened by severe stomach cramps. I yelled to my mother in anguish. I advised her that I was in a lot of pain. She rushed into my room to assist me out of bed and we headed to the hospital. University hospital was our first stop. Nurse Sonny depute me to a private room to monitor my contractions. I was there approximately three and a half hours before being released even though I was in excruciating pain. I was only dilating two centimeters for the past three hours.Nurse Betty advised me that in order for me to be hospitalized I would need to be at least three centimeters. The next four hours were the most uncomfortable and dreadful situation a teenage misfire could experience. Arou nd 7 a. M. I observe blood in my panties. We hopped in the car and headed to the nearest hospital, despite being pulled over by N. O. P. D. For speeding. We yelled, theres a baby on the way Upon arriving to Charity infirmary on May 9, 1994 within minutes Share L. Was born at 7AAA. M. To Williams and Blancher. The moment I laid eyes on my baby girl was absolutely amazing.I didnt know how to feel nor react to what had Just occurred. I knew right then that this experience would make me see the world in a incompatible light. I realized that I am someones mother. Becoming a teenage mother changed my whole look on life. After our release from the hospital we were ready to conquer the world. On my way home all I could do was contemplate on all of the responsibilities that comes with being a mother. One of my life changing experiences as a 16 year old mother was learning how to love, nurture, care and provide for a human whom Id carried for nine months.In the midst of all my new and excit ing challenges, school was still in session. Just for a few more weeks. My five teachers were gracious enough to combine my lessons and allow me to finish out the school year. Without a doubt my education was very important to me. As the next few weeks crept by, I was slowly getting use to anytime feedings, diaper changes, mocking moments, and continuing my education. Thoughts and emotions about how baby Ronnie will impact my life forever loud seem to cross my mind quite frequently.I would regularly stare at her and think to myself no more partying, selfishness, sleeping in, and playing cards were a part of my life style. But how wonderful, ambitious, eager, and a powerful role model of a mother I plan to become. Regardless, of what life threw my way. I believe becoming a mother was only the beginning of many accomplishments. Vive experienced many unwieldy days as a young mother. Such as, late work hours, keeping up with school lessons, exhaustion, being Judged by peers, and unabl e to be an bonnie teenager. Spending my money on diapers, formula, and clothing was a game changing experience.I wore several different hats at an early age. For example, a superdome, mentor, chef, teacher, nurse, bodyguard, and chauffeur. Knowing that my pride and delectation would be admiring me, kept me motivated and enthused to finish high school and go on to higher learning.

The constant encouragement from my daughter and parents abetted me in becoming the woman and mother I am today.
