Here's my storyy. I'm a to-be single teen mommy. As bad as that sounds, I wouldn't have it any other way

Baby's 'daddy' and I were friends for a really long time. He was best friends with my best guy friend growing up. When we started dating everyone was convinced we would be that one couple that actually made it. (hah, as that has been said many times before i'm sure). I've always believed I would never have sex unless with the right person & was willing to accept the consequences. Which I stuck to. Ted & I got pregnant our very first time. And the second I was 3 days late for my period, I talked to Ted, and my mom. Ted obviously hoped we weren't, as did I, as we were both only 17. My mom took me for a pregnancy test the day after I told her & it was positive. My mom and I were never really close, but I knew it was best for baby if found out asap. This was back in July of '08.

In deciding what to do, I wanted Ted to have as much of a say as I did, because it would affect both of our lives forever. I've been 100% against abortion for as long as I've known what it is, and there was no way I was going to have one. Ted respected that. Initially we thought adoption was going to be the best decision. As time went on, his parents showed how unsupportive they were going to be. And I had an amazing amount of support from my own family, friends, and my friend's families. I decided it would be fine for me to keep my baby with all this support. There is no written rule that two-parent homes are better than one-parent homes.

Ted and I still dated through beginning of December. I developed a UTI, and had to go to the hospital. He broke up with me when I was released from the hospital because our lives were headed in two different directions.. he wanted to go out of state for college and pursue a music career, while I was planning on staying local for college and raising my baby.

We tried to keep our friendship, and he was my best friend, so it was easy for me after the break-up to just accept the changes. Apparently, he couldn't handle it. He continued to think he ruined my life & couldn't live with that guilt. A lot of it was never getting support from his parents. He slowly changed from an amazing and secure person, to someone who had no idea who he was or what his purpose was in life since we found out I was pregnant. Which he's only 18 now, he's still young. I think its rare anyone knows who they are at that age :P

Ultimately, he couldn't handle a lot of conversation or being my friend and it gave me a lot of stress. He was no longer being supportive of me, and was convinced I couldn't raise a child based strictly upon my age. Of course, knowing stress is no good for me or baby, I cut communication with him. I told him it would be good for us (and him in the long run if he decided he wanted to be a part of his son's life) to end things on peaceful terms. And it would be up to him to decide when that conversation will come, when he could handle it. It's been a month of no talking now, so I'm not expecting that conversation to come.

And thats my story of now to be a single mom I have almost 2 weeks left & couldn't be more thrilled! If anyone wants to know any more details, feel free to ask. I have a very fortunate story, and am incredibly blessed for things to have turned out they way they have for me.

Hear is my story, Im 21 and have 2 boys but 2 dads, I know that sounds really bad

I moved from a big town into a small village in 1998(I would have been 11), where I met this nice boy(whom didn't turn out to be every nice), We became best friends a about 2 years later we started dating(only kiddie stuff though) until i was about 15, then at 16 I fell pregnant, and me and Carl (Taylor's Dad) broke up because he kept stealing everything, getting into trouble with police, drugs etc, Taylor is just over 3 and a half and Carls never looked after him and hasnt seen him in over 2 years


Then at 18 I met another boy who was a few years older (he would have been 21), I thought we was happy etc, until I fell pregnant, then he stopped all contact with me and about 2 weeks later, I found out he had moved into his G/F mums house, so i'm guessing they had been together the whole time I was with him His name Is Dan (JJ's dad) he's had no contact with my son ever and i've had no contact with him.

That's how i'm 21 with 2 babies, You would think I'd be completely off men by now, i've had 3 boyfriends, 2 screwed me over and the 3rd was just trouble

But me and my boys are happy so that's all that matters really

hi ladies, im katy and 26.
I have a 7 year old daughter, was with the dad for five years, when he suddenly decided he didnt love me anymore and had another g/f in the same week.
I am 3 months pregnant atm, with another guy i realy loved, he seemed to really want me to get pregnant, i did and now he has left me too. Says its because i shout at him for no reason, which i admit that i do, pregnancy hormones are great. He says he wants something to do with the child, but i wont believe it until i see it. I dont think relationships must be my strong point.

Hi all ,

I'm Laura i've just turned 28 and i have a 6 week old little girl i was with her dad for 18 months before i fell pregnant her daddy is 10 years older than me (38) so you would think that he would have known better lol.

When i found out i was pregnant i was petrified as i never really wanted children but i knew she was meant to be and decided straight away that i wanted to keep her.
When i told her daddy he just blanked me which was hard then he decided that we need to talk but he did all the talking by just telling me that he didn't mind if i wanted to get rid of her (B*st*rd) and kept saying that he already had 2 kids from a previous relationship so he had all the family he need and didn't want anymore kids ( so there and then i knew that was that)

well i gave him the benefit of giving him 6 weeks to think about things and we would meet up and talk after my 12 week scan but that didn't make any difference as he still had changed his mind about things so i showed him my scan picture and told him that this would be the first and the last time he would see MY baby unless he changed his mind. he then sent me a text saying sorry i cant help!!!!

Heard nothing from him from that date so i guess that he doesn't care at all but i'm kind of glad now as i have tried several time by letting him know that she was here and i have even left pictures of her on his car window screen lol.

Oh well i know its his loss and everything but i really wish my baby had a daddy but i'm hoping i meet a nice man one day who will look after my little girl as his own as i would love some more babies in the future but not until i meet mr right (guess i'll be waiting a long time )

Sorry for the rant but i needed that .x.x.

Hello girlys, Im Bee, 20, due 24th August. I live in London, UK.
Turns out will have to be a single mum as my partner lives in Italy and wasn't granted a visa as the finantial support needed wasn't enough to support him, apparently, (as if we need to be rich) i've been feeling quite lonely and sad lately because i keep thinking how he wont see our daughter be born or see her regularly as it's not as though i can just pop to Florence whenever i like. lol

But keeping with the positive :-D i am a first time mum and i'm glad i found this site for answering my little questions and speaking to you lovely people! if anyone can give me some advice about being a single first time mum that'd be great! :-D So nice to meet u all.

I'm Daniel

I live in Wales and I am originally from Western Australia.

I am 32 years old and have a 4 month old daughter.

This is my second daughter, my first is 13 now and lives in Australia with her mother.

I have been looking after Elizabeth on my own since she was born as her mother is unfortunatley not fit to look after her due to medical reasons.

I am hoping that in the future this will change so Elizabeth can have her mummy around to see her grow up.

hi im karen and im 31. im a single mum of 3 and as bad as it sounds they all have diff dads. my 12 yr old has chosen not to see her dad for her own reasons and im on friendly terms with my 5 yr olds dad.
my 7mth olds dad is another story. it was a brief relationship and even tho i was very careful ive had my baba which i wouldnt change. ive been harrassed and threatened from the min i found out i was preg. i was told to abort her screamed at as i refused to let him move in, abused in trhe street and had mine and my daughters names and my sisters addy plastered over a facebook group with vile abuse and lies. ive had to relocate myself and children because of this. all i can say is thank god for the police and social services theyve been a godsend.
its very lonely at times but my kids are my world and every achievement and the fact they are all wonderful children is down to me. i can take full credit for them and that makes all the pain and stress worthwhile.
to all of you x

Im Jesse 24 yo single mum to Kailee 4yo and a little boy due Oct 21st. I was single from 4mths preg with my DD up til i met this babys dad when DD was 2.5yo. This babys dad walked out on me 3 days after we conceived this little one..... tho we were still intimately involved til i was 10wks preg. He already started seeing someone else by the time i was 12wks preg and texted me (while i was in the hospital ER hooked to machines etc) saying he wanted nothing to do with me or his baby. PERIOD. *sigh*. Havent heard from him since - other than his new gf telling me i should get a DNA test to prove it is in fact HIS baby (morons! lol). DD's father hasnt seen her since she was 4mths old....

.... unfortunately i live in the same town as both kids fathers

I'm Nicki and I'm 19 weeks pregnant.

Me and my ex were together for 5 years when I found out he had been cheating on me for nearly 1 year. We split up but were still sleeping together and I ended up becoming pregnant.

He is behind me 150%, coming to all my appointments and being really supportive but he's still with the girl he cheated on me with. We are going to remain friends but it is really hard as we both still have feelings for each other.

I wish I could get him out of my mind.
