mystery menHey. my name is megan. i have just recently turned 16. Since i was 14 i have had a different sexual partner every 2-3 months. It was quite a normal thing, cause i mean, all my friends said that sex was fun. one time, me and my best friend, jasmine, went to a house party and slept with 4 other guys. Last November though was dreadful. My brother threw his 18th birthday up in hythe hall. so me and a couple of my mates tagged along. My boyfriend didn't come though because him and my brother don't get along. But i made a horrible mistake, and shagged two other guys. my boyfriend hasn't found out yet. and i hope he doesn't because we had sex the next day. it was amazing. except from the bit where he cummed in my eye. But two weeks later, i was late for my period so i took the test and it came up positive. i told my boyfriend straight away. he didn't know what to say, but is pretty happy if i want to keep it. But i obviously told him that it was his. but, you see, im not sure if it is his. what happens if i pop out a black kid, because the night of the party, i had sex with a coloured boy. and i dont want to ruin my longest relationship now, even though i dont even like him in that way anymore... any suggestions what to do? thanks for reading this. x Megan mommy of 2I am a proud SINGLE mommy of 2 beautiful babies...My princess...who is my oldest...Nevaeh Nikole...is going on 4...and my son...Aidyn Isaiah....is going on 7 months...I'm a single mom...and personally wouldn't change a thing about it...Don't get me wrong...its not always sunshine and rainbows...I have my days...But just knowin that i have 2 lil ones that llok up to me...i Try my best...I have great family support from my mom and brothers...My kids go without nothing...I'm only 22 years old...my kids have 2 diffrent fathers...or should i say sperm donors...Both have moved on and married other girl...and both have more children...They don't scknowledge my kids...which is fine with me...I am both mommy and daddy...I just want you young girls oou there to know that...If he doesn't wanna be with you...you CAN do it without him...A baby is the greatest thing ever...I thought both times of abortion...i just thought i couldn't be a mommy....But in the end it was all worth it...I had the worst pregnancy with my daughter...Her SD didn't even bother with me...i was only 18...just outta high school...i thought my life was over....but i kept her and she came into this world 3 weeks early weighing a lil over 5 pounds....So when i became pregnant with my son...i figured that my lil one needed me...so i didn't get depressed when it didn't work out...I grew up instead...I still live wtih my mom...and she helps out a lot...I work for a school district...I have paid off my own car...and support my kids....sometimes being a SINGLE mom is better for...amanda Becoming a mom at 15 years oldI'm 15 years old and seven months pregnant. I truly came as a surprise! I am pregnant by a boy who i have been dating since my seventh grade year! I really as a good girl until i met him! After being with him for a whole year we finally had sex! We both knew we wanted a baby! But not expecting it so soon! I always told him i wanted to have his baby while we had sex! After him sneaking in my house when my mom wasnt home and coming over late at night i got pregnant! I thought i was pregnant a couple of times before i really got pregnant because my period was coming on late! He knew i was pregnant but that couldnt be true! After being sick for two days straight my mom went and got me a pregnancy test! The first test didnt work right! So mom went to the store for another one! After i took that one it said i was pregnant! I was so scared! Then we went to the health department and they told me i was two months! I really thought i would get in big trouble! My mom was angry for a while! After we made it home, my mom called my boyfriend and told him! He really wasnt surprised! Many months has passed and we are still together both in high school and very excited to see our little angel! She is expected to be in this world March 19, 2009! So dont think of your pregnancy as a mistake! Think of it as a lesson!

I knew I had to tell my parents also so I eventually sat them down when I thought I was ready to tell them and told them "Im pregnant.Im sorry if I dissapoint yall and I hope yall forgive me and still love me no matter what".They were angry for a while but eventually they calmed down and we talked about what we gonna do with the baby after it was born.I knew in my heart I couldn't get an abortion.So we decided we would keep the baby.Its hard being a mom and going to school and having time for friends etc.The father of my baby does not talk to me anymore and wants nothing to do with his child.
