A Second Chance

doctors appointment #1

I go to the doctor right after I go get my medical card from my mom, Dylan drives me to the doctors you don't have to have an opointment you just walk in and wait.
We go in i fill out the paper and then about 25 minutes later I get called back to the doctors room, the nurse gets my hight and weight then takes my blood pressure and temperature.
After the nurse leave a few minutes later the doctor comes in.
"So what brings you to the doctors today?" Asked the doctor
He's a nice old man, short with glasses and white hair
"Well I woke up on wensday throwing up I've had a bad head ache since then and my backs been hurting alot"
"Alright well I might be able to help you I have to ask a few rutine questions"
Oh god I hate this part I think to myself
" Are you allergic to any medications?" Ask to doctor
"Not that I know of"
"Are you currently taking any medication regularly? "
"Yes I have 2 types of allergie Medicines"
"Do you smoke drink or take any other kind of drugs?"
"No"
"When was you last period?" He ask
" Um 4 ish weeks ago maybe a little longer"
"Are you sexualy active?"
"Yes"
"When was the last time you had sex"
"Um about 3 or 4 weeks ago"
" did you use protection?" Ask the doctor
I didn't want to answer
" No "
" well I think I might know the problem says the doctor, have you taken a pregnancy test?"
"No"
" well I'm going to have you take one just to be sure "
The doctor leaves the room, Dylan looks at me with fear in his eyes, I don't know what to do or say. I'm so close to crying. Dylan sees I'm about to cry and he comes over hugs me and trys to comfort me. Nither of us know what to say what is there to say I'm 17 in high school and Im pregnant.
A few minutes later the doctor comes back in to the room. He tells me to pee in the cup that he hands me. I go to the bathroom pee in the cup then bring it back to the room he puts the pregnant test in the cup and we wait...
We wait about a minute and the check. I'm terrified, if this test comes back positive my while life will change for ever both of our life's. What will I tell my family and my friends, they have no idea. I'm the perfect student the perfect daughter, no one would ever imagine that something like this would ever happen to me.
I see the doctor look at the test me and Dylan are both and n't the edge of our seats.
"Sweetie I hate to tell you this, but the test is positive" say the doctor
I start to cry and Dylan holds me tight telling me it will be okay the doctor says "i'll give you a minute"
And walks out of the room Dylans still holding me telling me that everything's going to be okay.
I'm still crying trying to get words out
" how am I going to finish school and take care of it, I only make $12 and hour I can't take care of a baby pay my car payment still go to work and school and keep my grades up"
" Baby clam down listen, this is both of our faults, but this is still our child maybe this is not the right time in life but it's still our kid and we have to love and take care of it we will find a way I'm here every step of the way I can pick up extra hours I'll be graduating this year, the baby won't be born till summer you can still go to school at this year's by the time you have to go back to school it will be at few months old I'm sure your mom and my mom can take turns babysitting it will be ok everything happens for an reason"
" I know I shouldn't be crying about that fact I'm pregnant with our child but I'm so young and I want nothing more to have a good life and make an good life for my kids but now I'm no sure if I can do that..."
The doctor comes in and ask us if we're alright, I tell him yes. He ask how old i am and who the father was. I tell him I'm 17 and that Dylan is te father.
The doctor says" look at the bright side you know the father, hes here with you, alot of girls have baby's Younger than you, it will be okay. But I highly suggest you go home talk to your mom or dad and then go to plan parent hood. Pregnancy test are not always right but based off the way you been feeling I would say you are, if you go to plan parenthood you can talk about rather you want to keep the baby and..."
I quickly cut the doctor off and say
" were keeping the baby "
"I'm gald to here that , so many girls give up there baby then regret it their whole lives" says the doctor
" well thank you i guess where going to go home and talk to my mom and then go to planed parenthood and try to find out for sure"
We leave the doctors office by then I had stopped crying after Dylan and even the doctor telling me that it would be ok, maybe I do need to look at the bright side, I have a boyfriend who loves me and that's going to stay with me I have a family I have an job I'll be able to finish this school year before I have the baby.
Dylan drive home and we go inside mom's siting at the table, she sees I've been crying and ask me what's wrong, and what the doctor said.
"Mom we have to talk" I ask
Me and Dylan sit down at the table with her.
