I remember my Mum coming into my room and asking me if I was ok. I said yes. It seemed like a strange question. Not like was I feeling ill or was there something else going on, if was simple “Are you ok?”.
Then she asked me if I was pregnant. I was actually shocked by her statement. Not so much that she asked me because we had a very open relationship and talked about many things, it was more that why would she think I was pregnant. I was on the birth control pill (though to this day I honestly don’t know if she was involved in me getting them but I don’t know how else I cold have).
I wondered if there was there something about me that looked different.
I answered her question and said ‘yes’ I was ok, even though I didn’t feel right. She asked me again if I could be pregnant.
Just to give you a visual. Here I am 17 years old ( I know now that sounds old but back then it was very young and I was very naive) and my Mum is asking me if I was pregnant?!
Jump to the next scene, My Mum asked me to take a test to see if I was pregnant, which I did.
We know what the answer was.
