Hi, I am mom of a 4 1/2 month old boy named Aydan. Hes a handful but a good baby. I was 18 when i found out i was pregnant. it was a BIG shock.I had never consented to any type of physical relationship. I was raped. That is how i will always remember my first time, unfortunately. But i have Aydan now. He smiles all the time and is a sweet as can be. I love him with all my heart.

Good for you!  I am the single of mother of two young boys and the rewards I get daily from them are beyond the scope of words!  You are a strong woman and even though it can be hard at times you have already made the most difficult decision.  I questioned whether I would be able to handle raising two boys alone when I became pregnant with my 2nd and his father walked out when I would not have an abortion.  I chose to keep him and have not regretted any part of his 19-mos life so far!  One big thing I had to learn was to accept help.  Apply for assistance, don't be too proud.  Utilize all the devices out there for single mothers.  And definitely DO complete your education.  Take one class at a time if you have to.  Any furthering of your schooling will aid you and your son in the future.  Good luck!
