    Extractions: About Teen Pregnancy The following stories were written by students about their reactions when they discovered they were pregnant. All stories in this section are presented with student permission. A Tough Job By Isaiah's mom. I've had my baby since the last time I've written. I went into labor around 12:41am. My grandma timed my contractions. After a while I called my clinic. They put me through with my doctor (Dr. Smith) and he told me to go to the hospital to the 3rd floor. So my grandma and me did. My grandpa dropped us off at the emergency entrance. I didn't pack a bag because I didn't think it was labor, but it was. When I put the hospital gown on my midwife Donna examined me. I was already 6 centimeters dilated. After that they wheeled me into the labor and delivery room. I was in labor for only 5 hours with no pain medication, but they gave me an I.V. My grandma helped all the way through. At 5:42am. On Saturday February 28,1998, I delivered my baby boy- Isaiah Joseph Harris Ramirez. He weighed 7 pounds 6 ounces and was 20 inches long. Since then I've been very busy taking care of Isaiah. Today he's 2 months and 3 weeks. I haven't had time to myself like I used to. All my time goes to Isaiah now. Surprisingly Herbert wants to be in our son's life. I was so happy because I want Isaiah to have a relationship with his father. They sometimes spend time together, which is good, but I wish it would happen more often. Herbert and me still don't have a relationship, but we have a good friendship. I'm a lot more tired than I used to be. It's a lot of hard work and harder than what I expected. It's May 21st 1998 and Isaiah will be three months in one week, (the day we get out of school). Isaiah is the only angel I know and I'm going to raise him right. I hope Herbert and me will develop more of a parenting relationship. I think it'll be easier and I'll feel more comfortable. Now I have A focus point in my life, and that's my baby.

She is four months old now, and it is still a little hard for me to adjust to becoming a mother. I love my daughter very much, and I cherish her life more than my own. Every day spent with her is a new experience, but it is difficult. I can no longer put my needs first. Annisah comes before any one else. I have a lot of support from both my family and his family. Out families help out a lot. It makes everything easier knowing that you have people who care, there for you. Not everyone is lucky in that way. Annisah receives a lot of care and love from everyone who is a part of her life. I love my baby girl with all my heart and soul, but now I understand why a family is supposed to come after marriage. It is extremely hard being a teenager and trying to have a family. You have to have a lot of patience and remember that each challenge you are faced with and overcome, makes you that much stronger for the next one.
