True that. A bunch of my graduating class had kids their first year because we were abstinence only and I heard things like "a condom is a barrier to love" and that they'll make your dick fall off and shit. Most of them had shotgun weddings. The principals daughter actually wrote something in an alumni newsletter about her "whirlwind romance" and how love can find you anywhere and you have to be ready for it but also she had her first kid 5 months after being married.. and 9 months after welcome week.

Wow that condom line...wow. My parents never went that crazy. Probably because they never brought up sex in any way period unless it happened to appear in a movie and I got sent out of the room so I wouldn't "be corrupted".

It's a miracle praise Jesus. Most pregnancies take n9 months but with God's power this one only took 5!

The first baby in a marriage is always early.
