Recap: ‘16 & Pregnant: Christinna’

From Amazon:

Christinna and football star Isiah have had to change their college plans as they prepare for their baby. His family is furious when he gives up his scholarship. Can they make it on their own or is the pressure too much?

At first glance, I don’t remember much about this episode. I know that a DNA test comes up at some point.

Christinna is 17 and used to live in upstate New York before moving to Huntsville, Alabama. She’s been adjusting to the south and says it’s hard. Everything is football, which she doesn’t care about.

Christinna started dating Isiah, who had a scholarship to play football, and she graduated early from high school.

Isiah’s grandma, Kathy, is not happy about them being together. She is one of those people who uses “I speak my mind” as an excuse for being rude. It probably doesn’t help that Christinna and Isiah decided to secretly marry and throw away his scholarship because . . . she’s pregnant.

28 Weeks Pregnant

We learn that Christinna and Isiah dated for eight months when they found out she was pregnant. They thought getting married was the best idea, and they upset everybody by not telling them about it ahead of time.

Everybody wanted Isiah to take his scholarship, but he turned it down. He works at a sandwich shop. Christinna has been going to community college, but now she’s going to take a break.
