Your Pregnancy and Newborn Journey A Guide for Pregnant Teens

The majority of teenage pregnancies are not planned, and for many, the pregnancy means heartbreak and broken dreams. Those who continue their pregnancies, however, need to face the realities of approaching parenthood, and do all they can to produce a healthy baby. Your Pregnancy and Newborn Journey is a guide for teenagers. The authors focus on the needs of the young mother and, if he is involved, those of her partner. They stress the need for young people to stay in school, to graduate, and to gain job skills. The teen's own parents' reaction to the pregnancy and their possible support are discussed. The alternatives of marriage, single parenthood, and adoption are presented.Lindsay, Jeanne Warren is the author of 'Your Pregnancy and Newborn Journey A Guide for Pregnant Teens', published 2004 under ISBN 9781932538014 and ISBN 1932538011.
