Are you perchance linking to those posts within the new posts? That would make them come up as pingbacks, links.
AHA! Yes I am totally linking to those posts.
This makes sense, thanks.
So I'll just delete them from comments?
Yes, you can delete them.
To prevent this from happening, you can use a truncated version of the URL when linking to your own posts - see here:
