About Chanel Maldonado Expertise Hi! My name is Chanel and I believe I would be able to answer a wide variety of questions concerning teen pregnancy. I had my first child at the age of 16 and was currently a junior in high school. I had two more children after that at the ages of 18 and 20. I can answer questions dealing with everything from the unsure and scary part of not knowing if your pregnant to the actual pregnancy on to birth. I am now only 21 and still young and believe i can relate to younger girls very well. I appeared on the John Walsh show "16 And Pregnant?..I should Have Waited?" Also.
Experience I am experienced in this area because i had two of my three children when i was a teenager. I finished high school and married the father of my second two children. I believe i am a very positive person when it comes to teen pregnancy because i believe no matter the situation there is a solution to bring out the positive.
Organizations I belong to MOPS "Mothers of Preschoolers"
Publications I have appeared on the John Walsh Show.
Education/Credentials I am a mom of 3, 2 of which i had as a teenager. I believe i can find the positive in any uncertain situation:)

Answer Hi Ong
It sounds like you could be overreacting, sometimes stress can cause you to notice things that are happening and since you are thinking you could be pregnant you are just attributing it to that. Since you have had two negative tests, try to relax and wait it out. You should start your period soon, try to relax:)
