The Pregnancy Project: A Memoir

The Pregnancy Project: A Memoir

When high school senior Gaby faked a pregnancy as a project to challenge stereotypes, she also changed her life. Discover this compelling memoir from an inspirational teenage activist, now a Lifetime movie.

It started as a school project, but it turned into so much more.

Growing up, Gaby Rodriguez was often told she would end up a teen mom. After all, her mother and her older sisters had gotten pregnant as teenagers; from an outsiderâ‚¬s perspective, it was practically a family tradition. Gaby had ambitions that didnâ‚¬t include teen motherhood. But she wondered: how would she be treated if she fulfilled othersâ‚¬ expectations? Would everyone ignore the years she put into being a good student and see her as just another pregnant teen statistic with no future? These questions sparked Gabyâ‚¬s high school senior project: faking her own pregnancy to see how her family, friends, and community would react. What she learned changed her life foreverâ‚¬Â¦and made international headlines in the process.

In The Pregnancy Project, Gaby details how she was able to fake her own pregnancy, hiding the truth from even her siblings and boyfriendâ‚¬s parents, and reveals all that she learned from the experience. But more than that, Gabyâ‚¬s story is about fighting stereotypes, and how one girl found the strength to come out from the shadow of low expectations to forge a bright future for herself.
