I think my mums pregnant?
Well me parents divorced years ago, but she remarried with my step dad. Recently she's been acting weird, having secret phonecalls, eating more, gained weight , wearing loose clothes, on the history on the computer I saw '10 weeks pregnant' but I wasn't snooping around, it just came up. But I don't know how I feel about having a new brother or sister...I'm 14 and squeling while doing gcse's is not what I'm looking forward too..I also would feel annoyed, as everyone will be all into this new child and me&my sister will just be left out. Everything will change. I want&need a pony to ride and do show jumping with, but with a new child we couldn't afford it. Do you think she's pregnant? What should I do and think?

You are going to wait until she is ready to tell you and then you should do everything you can to help her. That's what you should do.
If your mother is pregnant, you will find out when your mother is ready to tell you.
The decision is not yours - so how you feel about isn't really an option - its more like how do i adjust?
Squealing? A baby cries, a pig squeals. You are 14 - i am sure you have an ipod, an mp3 player or even headphones to your computer - problem solved!!
Your jealousy comes out very thick and strong - you are scared of being left out and the attention being taken away from you. This is quite immature and selfish.
Everything will change - of course it will - life always changes. You will change, each year of school something changes, your mum remarried, this was a change, changes happen, just adapt.
You want/need a pony? Do you realize how spoiled you sound? A little snotty brat is what this makes you sound like.
Time to stop thinking about yourself, stop thinking about your wants, demands and you you you and start thinking about the family.
Another child is not the end of the world - a routine will be found after a short time. Things will settle down, just give it time.
You don't even know if your mum is pregnant - kinda makes you look bad when it's only a guess about pregnancy and you only consider yourself, your wants etc.
You'll find out eventually. Sibling rivalry doesn't become you - it makes you look a little spoiled. Might want to consider that.
