I’m 15 and in love with my boyfriend who is 19. We love to go out and stay in watching movies, getting takeaways and have a lot of time together. We have been together for a year. I think I may be pregnant. We are both really happy. He has his own flat, really good pay and we are both ready for this. Would he get done for rape? This is our scare. We are so happy; our parents are really close to us. I tell my mum everything too; my family are very supportive. I’m just scared because of our ages. What will he be allowed to do?Editor’s note: Thanks for sharing your story…The first thing you need to do is get a pregnancy test done to confirm whether you are pregnant or not. You can have this done at your nearest pregnancy centre if you wish, although there are other places available and you can also buy them from chemists. The advantage of visiting the local centre is that you will immediately have someone to talk to about your situation, where you can ask all the questions you wish, including the legal aspect. You can also ring the helpline for information.
If you are close to both sets of parents, then it would be advisable to involve them in the situation once you know the outcome of the pregnancy test. Your nearest centre will support you throughout your pregnancy if you wish.
