Bristol Palin Says Second Pregnancy 'Was Actually Planned'

Bristol Palin has taken to her blog after receiving some criticism when she announced her second pregnancy earlier this week.

“So here are the things you should all get straight before you continue to mock me, judge me, and talk about me,” the 24-year-old daughter of former governor Sarah Palin wrote on her blog. “None of us are perfect. I made a mistake, but it’s not the mistake all these giddy a$$holes have loved to assume.”

Bristol continued, “This pregnancy was actually planned. Everyone knows I wanted more kids, to have a bigger family. Believing I was heading that way, I got ahead of myself. Things didn’t go as planned, but life keeps going. Life moves on.”

But I do not regret this baby. This baby is not a disappointment, and I cannot wait to be a mom times two. Tripp is going to make the best big brother!!

Let’s get another thing straight, because I can’t tolerate all the talk on this subject. I have never been paid as an “abstinence spokesperson.” I was employed by the great people at The Candies Foundation.

In other words, they are a teen pregnancy prevention non-profit and I worked for them when I was 18 and 19 – when I could share first hand the challenges of being a teen mother. Here’s one of my PSAs:

I know you remember me most from when Mom ran for Vice President. However, I’m not 17 anymore, I am 24. I’ve been employed at the same doctor’s office for over six years now; I own a home; I have a well-rounded, beautiful son.

Here’s what I have spoken out about. Life.

On this blog and at a few pro-life events.

When I realized I was pregnant, I knew I would be completely crucified. But I never even thought of aborting this child, NO MATTER WHAT THE CIRCUMSTANCE. (Sorry to the ghouls at Gawker, who said this baby is an argument FOR abortion. Not happening.)

I am pregnant. This is not the ideal situation, but life is important even if it’s not in the most absolute ideal circumstance. This is more confirmation on what I’ve always stood for. I’ve always been pro-life and I am standing for life now.

Deal with it.
