I don't care what they say, I'm in love with you, they try to pull me away, but they don't know the truth.

Tonight was a new episode of "16 and Pregnant" on MTV. Sorry that this recap is up so late.

Tonight's episode featured Nikkole. She is 16 years old, a cheerleader and incoming high school junior from Monroe, MI. She lives with her mom, Rikki, and her brother Brett. After she tells her boyfriend Josh that she is pregnant, he breaks up with her because he's not ready for a baby. Her mom and friends support her through the pregnancy. After a heart-to-heart talk with Josh, Nikkole decides that he has changed and they get back together.

Nikkole learns that she is having a boy, and she plans to name him Lyle. Josh seems to support Nikkole throughout the third trimester of her pregnancy, and when she decides to go to homecoming, he encourages her to go and that he'll meet up with her later (he can't go to the dance because he got expelled from school). She goes to the dance and after an hour goes to meet Josh, but he isn't there. She calls him and he says he doesn't want to leave his friend's house.

After Nikkole leaves school for a few weeks, she decides she can't wait any longer and decides to induce her labor. During her labor, Josh and her mom Rikki argue about his immaturity. After 27 hours of labor, Nikkole welcomes her son, Lyle. Rikki bans Josh from coming over to Nikkole's house, so she has to go over there for Lyle to see him. Eventually, she learns that Josh is still seeing his ex behind Nikkole's back, and the two of them break up for good. Nikkole and her mom decide to raise Lyle together.

My grandma is currently in town because of something that's going on with my little brother, and she watched this episode with me. She said that people never change. Nikkole truly believed that Josh had changed. All in all, this episode was really good. I liked Nikkole more than I liked the girl last week, Jenelle. Nikkole was actually nice to her mom and willing to stay home and help with Lyle.

Next week's episode chronicles a girl named Valerie, whose baby has some health problems. I'll be sure to write about it.

Love y'all,
