Britney’s sister beomes pregnent at 16

Jamie Lynn Spears says she’s pregnant

Another Spears baby is reportedly on the way — and it’s not Britney’s.
Jamie Lynn Spears, the 16-year-old Zoey 101 star and sister of Britney, told OK! magazine that she’s pregnant and that the father is her boyfriend, Casey Aldridge.

“It was a shock for both of us, so unexpected,” she said. “I was in complete and total shock and so was he.”

Spears is 12 weeks along and initially kept the news to herself when she learned of the pregnancy from an at-home test and subsequent doctor visit, she told the celebrity magazine, which hits stands in New York on Wednesday and the rest of the country by Friday.

What message does she want to send to other teens about premarital sex? “I definitely don’t think it’s something you should do; it’s better to wait,” she told the magazine. “But I can’t be judgmental because it’s a position I put myself in.”

After she found out from a doctor that she was pregnant, she said, “I took two weeks to myself where I didn’t tell anybody.”

“Only one of my friends knew because I needed to work out what I would do for myself before I let anyone’s opinion affect my decision. Then I told my parents and my friends. I was scared, but I had to do what was right for me,” she said.

Spears broke the news to her mother, Lynne, just before Thanksgiving, the magazine reported. “She was very upset because it wasn’t what she expected at all,” Spears said. “A week after, she had time to cope with it and became very supportive.”

Lynne Spears, already grandmother to Britney’s young sons, told the magazine: “I didn’t believe it because Jamie Lynn’s always been so conscientious. She’s never late for her curfew. I was in shock. I mean, this is my 16-year-old baby.”

She said her actress daughter, the telegenic heroine of her popular Nickelodeon series, has known Aldridge for years and began dating him in high school.

But in a recent interview with The Associated Press, Spears said she had no steady boyfriend. “I kind of just keep my options open,” she said. “I have a bunch of friends that I always hang out with, a bunch of guy friends.” She declined to talk about her older sister.

Spears spoke to the AP shortly before Thanksgiving, the day she told OK! she informed her mother about the pregnancy.

Jamie Lynn plans to raise the baby in her home state of Louisiana — “so it can have a normal family life.”

Nickelodeon released a statement: “We respect Jamie Lynn’s decision to take responsibility in this sensitive and personal situation. We know this is a very difficult time for her and her family, and our primary concern right now is for Jamie Lynn’s well being.”

A publicist for the network did not immediately respond to phone and e-mail requests for additional comment.

Zoey 101 is scheduled to conclude its third season Jan. 4 with a cliffhanger episode in which Spears’ character must decide whether to leave her fictional Pacific Coast Academy boarding school in California to join her parents in London.

The show is scheduled to resume in February, and its producer, Dan Schneider, has said filming on the fourth season has already been completed.

    kya ho raha hai aaj kal!padhe likhe log bhi…. contraceptives(easily available in market) use karne bhool jate hain.pehle kar lo, baad main pastao!

  2. not only that they can even use emergency contraceptives within 72 hours .

  3. “not only that they can even use emergency contraceptives within 72 hours .”

    yes exactly jeegs, still these guys tend to forget.

  4. som–on an average, the succes rate of all contraceptives is about 96-97%, yes, even with condoms. In case of condoms especially, one has no reason to believe that she might have conceived. It’s just touch luck, and there’s no way to find out till you miss the next nmonth’s period(so the 72 hr emergency contraceptive solution goes out the window too).

  5. sunny,the success rate may not be 100%, but still using contraceptives always helps to a large extent, ofcourse not speaking from my own experience.

    and yes unless the girl witnesses her next month’s menstrual cycle, you cant be sure.

  6. you are right that all birth control methods including the very condoms only reduce probability of pregnancy. When used properly, most birth control methods are quite effective, but not necessarily 100% effective.

  7. i guess its always better to go for contraceptives rather than resorting to other measures like “Withdrawl method”(difficult for a guy to pull out the penis from her vagina exactly at the right moment, some spearms will leak anyway) and “rhythm method”( have sex only at certain times of the menstrual cycle).

  8. LOL..som..you know quite a bit about measures for an unmarried guy eh ;) ?

    BTW, those few leaky fellas don’t pose much of a threat anyway :)

  9. Som condoms are best of the lot of measures available even for contraceptives one has to take medicines for 21 days .

  10. Man, lot of expert comments and some of them from good boy Som.

  11. “Man, lot of expert comments and some of them from good boy Som.”

    Ravi bhai:dont think these are expert comments.its is just that i am verymuch aware and well read about all these sort of things.

  12. Very educational post.Just one piece of advice: Best contraception is abstinence.Atleast thats what the Bush administration is preaching.

  13. abstinence is good, but there are many who get engaged in oral sex or similar acts as a method of contraception and chooses this to be as an alternative to intercourse assuming this does not violate the rules of abstinence which could result in some STDs and oral cancer if someone has wounds or open sores on their genitals due to lack of sexual knowledge. so IMO making people fully aware through sex education can go a long way in preventing unwanted pregnencies and any sexual transmitted diseases there of.

  14. Only if Jamie Lynn has Som for a teacher………..

  15. “Only if Jamie Lynn has Som for a teacher………..”

    LOL!!!

    I think we have our resident sexpert on NG. What say everyone?

  17. Re:I think we have our resident sexpert on NG. What say everyone?

    Might have the knowledge but lacking in experience.

  18. Som
    Since you don’t have the expertise, let me tell you this whole thing about sex and condoms and so on is a lot of hogwash. If you kiss a girl long enough, you can make her pregnant. So make sure you take breaks between kisses. Maybe catch a movie ;-)

  19. “Might have the knowledge but lacking in experience”

    that is so true ILG, but i guess theoretical knowledge in this case would be much more helpful rather than practical considerations. howcan you do sex without knowing what it is and how it is done?

  20. Beld - lol

    BTw Som Aapka interest dekhke Lagta hai you should have become a sexologist :D

  21. “If you kiss a girl long enough, you can make her pregnant. So make sure you take breaks between kisses. Maybe catch a movie”

    LOL!

  22. Som’s comments here make for a damn entertaining read :razz:

    Som: How old are you, btw?

  23. Arun
    Som is 69 div by 3, +-2

  24. “Som’s comments here make for a damn entertaining read
    Som: How old are you, btw?”

    thanks arun.still in my teens! lol!

    just kidding,i am 23.

  25. Som.”howcan you do sex without knowing what it is and how it is done?”

    People have been doing it since ages Som dear, when the time comes “You just do it”. Plus , do it with the right one.

  26. Beld, looks like you always like to answer in riddles. I remember the other day when Ach bhai had asked your age , you had a nice rhyme that went on.

    So , you in your mid 30’s Beld?

  27. Arun, how are you doing? I am planning to come over to Hyd for 3 weeks Jan 31st to Feb 22nd, should plan to meet so that I can pass on some wisdom to you over some drinks.

    Can you send me your contact info please?

  28. “People have been doing it since ages Som dear, when the time comes “You just do it”. Plus , do it with the right one.”

    Ravi bhai, i dont get it.yeh apne aap kaise ho jayega? you need to have some basic gyaan before you proceed to do it.

  29. BTW some of my frens still had the wrong notion that masturbation is abnormal and bad for health.i kinda cleared their doubts by showing them some good books on sex.now they are quite relieved i must say.

  30. Som, how do you think our ancestors did it, do you think they were given hands on experience before they were sent out?

    Nature honey, everything is taken care by nature. But, knowledge is power and more you know obviously the better it is for you and your unfortunate partner.

  31. som you have to stop before I cry out in laughter…this is too much even for me to handle…

  32. Ravi, the riddle was meant for the occasion :-)
    As for my age invert som’s age and then pick a four, six or a high five!

    Btw, do drop into Bangalore. We can probably then attract shet back from hibernation.

  33. True jay tho ravi’s advice also has me in splits. Som do invite us all for your wedding. We will all get books and come :-)

  34. Som “i kinda cleared their doubts by showing them some”

    For a second when I read this , I thought you really showed them and then I read the next part.

  35. “For a second when I read this , I thought you really showed them and then I read the next part.”

    Ravi bhai,this is hilarious. i cant stop laughing….

  36. “As for my age invert som’s age and then pick a four, six or a high five”

    Beld, you’re funny, man :-)

    Any kids, Beld?

  37. Planning to drop by at Blore to meet Shetty dear who is watching but not commenting and will let you know if I can make it Beld.

  38. “Som “i kinda cleared their doubts by showing them some”

    For a second when I read this , I thought you really showed them and then I read the next part.”
    LMAO

  39. Bond yup, a couple.

  40. I am for free speech but I think some of the members would be uncomfortable reading these texts. Even if we keep the discussion on, please use discretion and avoid explicit words.

  41. Beld: kids are so cute. Are you from the South? I don’t think I ever chatted with you before - but better late than never :-)

  42. In Bangalore now.

    Ravi sure look fwd to it

    Shetty come out of the closet dude:-)
    Itne seriously kyon lete ho?

  43. rks, could you please let us know what the explicit words are so that we could avid them.

    By, the way watched Swordfish last night and liked it. Have you watched it rks?

  44. Why, what happened to Shetty, my bro. Is he upset, Beld? but why?

  45. Swordfish was a good movie and as usual Travolta was great - there was one “scene part” in the movie :-)

  46. “BTW some of my frens still had the wrong notion that masturbation..”

    “…now they are quite relieved i must say.”

    HAHAHAHAHAAH..sorry som but this is just too funny

  47. I just remember that one scen from Swordfish… my wifey Halle, thas it

  53. “I am for free speech but I think some of the members would be uncomfortable reading these texts. Even if we keep the discussion on, please use discretion and avoid explicit words.”

    SO after George Carlin’s 7 dirty words you can’t say on TV…let us have RKS’s list of words you can’t say at NG. Let me start of by proposing the word ‘fan-atic’!

  55. why the hell is indian media so obsessed with these cheap western celebs (spears,anderson ,hilton etc) they certainly are not role models

  56. Relax rockstar…..relax….

  58. >>SO after George Carlin’s 7 dirty words you can’t say on TV…let us have RKS’s list of words you can’t say at NG. Let me start of by proposing the word ‘fan-atic’!
