On December 31st 2019 I found out I was 34-35 weeks pregnant. I didn't know I was pregnant so we started off with nothing for the baby. I spent weeks cleaning my room making sure there was room for all of the stuff that we needed for the baby. I had to get mentally and physically prepared for a baby at 17 years old.
Inside my mind: Crap what am I gonna do? Am I gonna be a good mom to my child? Am I ready for a baby?
How am I gonna mange a baby and school at the same time?I wasn't ready for a child yet but I knew that I wasn't going to give her up for adoption. I promised myself that I will do my very best to be a good mom for my child. We started to buy things for the baby and get the room ready for the baby.
The Next Day
We went to go to the hospital to find out the gender of the baby and on the way there we started looking for names for the baby. If it was a boy it was gonna be named Logan Zayne after my moms son that she miscarriaged. If it was a girl it was gonna be Nova Leigh. We found out it was a girl and we were so happy but was also hoping it was a boy.
The Next Day
In the morning when I woke up, I wanted a bowl of cereal to eat for breakfast and I wanted to see if I sat the bowl on my belly if nova would knock it off or not. Well let say that I had my own table at this point.
On February 28th 2020, it was time to give birth to my beautiful baby girl.


I gave birth to her at 12:28pm, she weighed 7lbs and 1ounce at birth. She ended up being under a blue light for 5 days because she had jaundice real bad, her levels would go up real high and go down. She was breastfed at first but stopped on the second day she was bottle fed. On the fifth day, we finally got the good news saying that we can take her home.
