Sorry, I don’t know you and your situation, besides several entries of yours that I read. It’s understandable that teenagers (and adults sometimes) can do irresponsible things, but if you are going to be a Mom, you have to change and be more responsible. You have to start thinking about your life after your baby is born, and have to consider more your decisions about relationships and sex, not just do stupid things without thinking.
As for your current situation, it’s a hard one. My advice is: if you think that this new guy is going to be good to you and may be able to make a good father for your baby, you have to somehow tell him the truth, and possibly work on you two staying together. It’s always easier for two parents to raise a child rather than having a single parent. It’s better for the child too. You have to think about whether you want this guy in your life, and if you do, then you have to get more serious and set your mind on the baby and him. If not, then concentrate on the baby, forget the guy. Stop living the crazy-teenager life if you’re planning to be a good Mom.
That’s my two cents.
I really wish you the best.

Hi Bridget,

I think you should tell this guy. And no, if you are already pregnant, you cannot get pregnant with a second baby. If he truly cares for you, maybe he will stick around. You don’t want to end up on Maury Povich one day confessing that his baby isn’t really his. I know being a teenager is hard and nowadays triple hard. Have this baby, love her and do good for her. If you find out you just can’t handle it, there are people who can help you. Get involved in a good church. It takes a lot to turn your life around. Sounds like you were headed down a bad path. And as crazy as this sounds… maybe this baby will end up saving your life by making you be more responsible. Take care.
