Single Moms

It's not easy being a single mom. As a single parent, you have to take on double the parenting duty. Other issues can make this even more complex. For example, some young moms write about what to do if my boyfriend is an alcoholic. Please share your experience and wisdom. As you will see, these problems require a great support system, time management skills and top-notch parenting techniques. If you have tips to share with other single moms or just want to help other single mothers and single parents out there, then tell us your story.

problems


hi everyone. im currently 15 and 3 months pregnant. i had the best bf anyone culd evr ask for. we'd been dating since Sep. 14, almost 9 months now, then evrything crashed last night. he said he's tired of bullshit or problems that i keep bringing up and my 'childish' behavior on situations. until all this crap happened, idc wat other people sid, we were the happiest couple in our school! going to watch movies at the theaters, going out for dinner, once, but still happy. i didnt plan on getting pregnant. the last day we had sex, he told me that he ahd somewat planned me to get pregnant, but i hadnt. i was upset with him for not consulting about that with me first, BEFORE i got pregnant, and now look where i am. a single mother who cant afford to keep her own baby, so adoption is more than likely wat im gonna do. he promised he'd nvr leave me; gave me a promise ring, and evn an early engagement ring too. but i gues things werent meant to be between us. i loved him to death. and evn though he drinks and smokes here and there, somethinng i dont normally want in a guy, i still loved him very deeply, thats y i put up with him. now, evrything i loved is gone. i hav no heart left, for any1. none watsoevr. now im having to think aout school and wat im having to get out of planned classes, like my welding. im gonna miss welding a lot. and also how im going to handle giving up a baby i love dearly and giv him/her to another family. so, if anyone hasa any advice for me, plz, im all ears right now. i need some serious help....

My Beautiful Baby

Im currently 15 and I have gave birth to a beautiful little girl, Sienna - Nicole on the 25th October 2008 and she is the best thing that has ever happened to me. I was with her father until November last year where I found out I was pregnant again. Im 7 months gone now and am awaiting the arrival of Sienna's baby brother Noah on 7th July 2009. Being a single mum isnt all what its cracked up to be. there are plenty of sleepless nights and pooey nappys to change but to be honest I love every second of it. I still attend a mainstream High School and yeah, I do get many strange looks and names called at me such as *Slag" "whore" and the most amusing "Juno" I bring Sienna to school with me 3 times a week and take her into my lessons. Its quite embarrassing when I have to wap my nipples out in class to feed her but I think everyones used to it now and they all fight over who touches her and strokes her hair :) Its rather annoying when I have to wheel the pram around school because there isnt much room either. If you do become pregnant and you are a single mum, please make sure you have a supporting family and get your priorities right. The Children come first. Not us. If there is a choice over reading Sienna a bedtime story or going out for a friends 16th I would definitely choose Sienna. Good Luck to all those who are pregnant and to all those thinking. Consider it carefully.

Leah Samantha Stork

I was 17 when i found out i was pregnant. I was so mad and thought i had ruined my life. My boyfriend was not happy but said he would support me. I should have made a better choice.

Then on April 24,2005 i started labor. I was at the store with my boyfriend getting a carseat for when we would take the baby home. On the way home i felt strong contractions. We drove to the hospital about 1 hour after we got to our apartment.

We got to the hospital and i was 6 cm dialated. I was shocked!! This was the day. I got through the contractions. THen it was time to push. My boyfriend held my hand the whole time. It hurt extremley bad. I did it without medication. Then Leah Samantha Stork was born. She was a blessing but also a piece of work. I love her but it wasn't good being a teenage mother.
