What do I do if I am?
Most definitely a mistake
But if it’s true, I must keep it
For it is my child, as well as his
But we’ve broken up . . .
What will he do?
I know that if I am
He is the only one
That could possibly be the father
Will he deny it, or say it’s a lie?
I've been dreaming of this,
And my abdomen feels fuller
Not as soft as it used to be
I’m 18, graduating in June,
And come October I'll be
Fresh outta high school
And a single mother . . .
But that’s only if
My fear is confirmed
I cried last night
I don’t wanna
Be a single Momma . . .
But I also don’t want him
To come back to me
Just because I’m pregnant
With his child . . .
What do I do???

Sounds like you need someone to talk to, and if you do, I'm here, and I care. Alright? I've been through a hell of a lot and don't think that just because you might not know me very well, I won't understand, because I will. Are you okay? Well, talk to me if you want to.

I wish people would stop telling me that I can do anything I want to. I never thought that I couldn't.

Whoa... I wasn't prepared for this.
Well I thought this poem had some good lines in it. "My abdomen feels fuller..." was a nice one.
As for the situation... I can't really give you any advice. But, like Allysa, I can always talk about it if you like. Although I may be the wrong gender to be speaking too.
All I can say is, for now, don't jump to any hasty conclusions.
And best of luck, Tamma.

Before you go thru all these emotions and questions, I'd tell you to make sure that you are pregnant first. So, besides taking a pregnancy test, go see a doctor for total confirmation.

Everything happens for a reason, and even if it doesn't seem that way now, in 5 years, 10 years, whenever, everything always works out fine in the end. TRY(yeah I know it's hard) to not worry or freak out until you really know what's up.."cross that bridge when you get there" Anyways, good luck, nice poem, keep us up to date aye?

I agree with Isabel about what she said. Everything does happen for a reason. It sounds like you've got a lot of emotions running through your head... I'm here if you want to talk to anyone. Supr23Grl@aol.com. I'd welcome any emails. Keep your head high.. and good luck.

Oh my goshy... I was definitly not prepared to hear this. No matter what, you're a strong girl, you'll survive. And definitly don't get together with the guy again just because of the baby (if there is one). Good luck.
