A YOUNG woman has bravely shared her heartbreak after catching her mum having sex with her husband.
Finding out that your significant other has been unfaithful is gut-wrenching as it is, let alone that they've been going behind your back with someone you trust, such as your mother.
Unfortunately, this is exactly the kind of situation one woman found herself in after discovering her mum had fallen pregnant with her husband's child.
The unnamed woman, who is now 18, said she started dating her partner when she was just 13 and he was 20.
'' I know it's weird but love is love right?'' the heartbroken wife said, adding she had become pregnant during their relationship.
''So as a teen pregnancy we got married as soon as I turned 18. Now, at 18 I am once again pregnant with his second child,'' she explained everything in an emotional post on Reddit.

Throughout their time together as a couple - which the wife described as ''interesting'' - she's suspected ''infidelity on his end'', however, she found herself ''too scared'' to bring it up due to his alleged anger issues.
''I could never imagine what he would react like if I even suggested it.''
On top of this, she claimed in , the pair also struggle financially and recently found themselves evicted after they were unable to cover rent.
Luckily, her widowed mum took the couple and their child in and they've been staying at the guest room for a month now.

The wife went on: ''Since I had a teen pregnancy I have been going out with friends trying to live the life I had been missing out on despite still being pregnant.
''So I usually go out in the evening, leaving my husband and mum home alone.''
One night started no different than other - however, it all turned upside down when she came back earlier than usual and heard ''weird noises'' from her mother's bedroom.
''Initially I ignored it and went to the room me and my husband were staying in.
''He wasn't there, not in the bathroom either, but he was home for sure I saw his shoes at the door.
''So with a racing heart I went to my mother's room dreading what I was about to see.
''My husband and mother were full on doing the deed.''
After being caught red-handed, the two love birds stopped immediately and started justifying their actions, with the mum moaning how she had felt ''lonely'' ever since her husband died.
Four red flags your partner is cheating
Private Investigator Aaron Bond from BondRees revealed four warning signs your partner might be cheating.
They start to take their phone everywhere with them
In close relationships, it's normal to know each other's passwords and use each other's phones, if their phone habits change then they may be hiding something.
says: "If your partner starts changing their passwords, starts taking their phone everywhere with them, even around the house or they become defensive when you ask to use their phone it could be a sign of them not being faithful."
"You should also look at how they place their phone down when not in use. If they face the phone with the screen facing down, then they could be hiding something."
They start telling you less about their day
When partners cheat they can start to avoid you, this could be down to them feeling guilty or because it makes it easier for them to lie to you.
"If you feel like your partner has suddenly begun to avoid you and they don't want to do things with you any more or they stop telling you about their day then this is another red flag."
"Partners often avoid their spouses or tell them less about their day because cheating can be tough, remembering all of your lies is impossible and it's an easy way to get caught out," says Aaron.
Their libido changes
Your partner's libido can change for a range of reasons so it may not be a sure sign of cheating but it can be a red flag according to Aaron.
Aaron says: "Cheaters often have less sex at home because they are cheating, but on occasions, they may also have more sex at home, this is because they feel guilty and use this increase in sex to hide their cheating. You may also find that your partner will start to introduce new things into your sex life that weren't there before."
They become negative towards you
Cheaters know that cheating is wrong and to them, it will feel good, this can cause tension and anxiety within themselves which they will need to justify.
"To get rid of the tension they feel inside they will try to convince themselves that you are the problem and they will become critical of you out of nowhere. Maybe you haven't walked the dog that day, put the dishes away or read a book to your children before bedtime. A small problem like this can now feel like a big deal and if you experience this your partner could be cheating," warns Aaron.
''I didn't stay to listen any longer and left with my kid. I immediately went to my friends house where I currently am.
''I haven't been to the house and my friend went to collect my stuff instead. I had been ignoring my husband and mothers calls and texts.''
But little did the heartbroken woman know there would be another major blow to her life - when her cheating husband showed up to the door and announcing that her mother was now carrying his child.
''I kicked him out and still am in shock. I have no idea what to do.
''I have been avoiding any thoughts about it because the stress might hurt the baby and my kid,'' she opened up about the twisted turn of events.
