Help Wrong Home Screen

My phone just randomly started going to a different home screen when I push the home button at the bottom of the phone. It used to go to the middle screen. Now it goes to the one on the far Left. I have tried to find a setting that I must have accidentally changed, but not had any luck. Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks.

I keep trying yo pinh it and it doesnt show up the homescreen option where i can choose which screen it only shows me the choices of widgets,shortcuts, folders and wallpapers... i'm having the same problem and I've been stressing finding how to put it back. please help me..

just pinch anywhere on the home screen and you get a bunch of screens. from there you can set your home screen

The "Shortcuts, Folders, etc..." comes up if you hold down on the screen, that is not what you want to do.

Pinch the home screen (thumb and index finger start apart then come together in a fluid motion like you are pinching someone)
The display will switch to a view of all seven screens and at the bottom is a choice for "Set default home screen."
Select Set Default and the currently active home screen will blink.
Touch the screen that you want to be your home screen and it will be highlighted.
The home button will now take you to that screen from now on.
