just know if you two are having problems a baby will NOT keep him with you. please make sure you're ready for a child with or without him. in my case we agreed to have a child together then 3 months into the pregnancy his ex is back into his life. I gave birth to  beautiful baby boy 2 months ago and his father is living with his ex now. if you cannot handle a child without him do NOT trick him into getting pregnant!

If you were worried of getting pregnant...you should have used protection! Have the baby, but give it up for adoption. Plenty of couples wanting babies out there.

They say that if people waited til they could really afford it before they had a baby, no one would have any children, ever.\n\nHowever, 24 is very VERY young. Other people having children around you should not influence your decision.  The guy you're dating, although you don't say much about him, has alot of children already that he presumably doesn't live with. Perhaps not the best support,having a baby is hard work.\nAsk yourself\nWill you live with your partner for 18 years or more?\nIs he a good father/do you want him to be the father of your children?\nCan you be completely selfless?\nCan you give up your life as you know it?\nCan you give a child the very best start in life?\n\nIf you can answer yes to those questions you are ready. If not, or if you just want a dolly that will call you momma, you're really not.

I'd ask you to marry me and come live with me in my parents garage.\nOk I'm kidding.\nOnly time will tell if this guy meant what he said. Most guys who plan on ditching will say exactly what he told you. Thing is, so will a good man.\nIf I was you. I'd assume he's telling the truth until proved otherwise.\nMe personally, I'd stick around and be the kids father. I couldn't bear having some other man raise my child.\n-----\nHi, I see you've added a few comments since I answered. It looks pretty clear to me that he intends to stick around. Just the fact he asked you to marry him before you were pregnant is good enough for me. I say give it a chance. You asked how common it is for a guy to stick around. I don't know the exact answer to that. I can only guess that most 19 year old guys would probably run for the hills. Your case is different though. You've been together for 4 years. I'm saying you're one of the lucky ones who has a good man. I think you should marry your child's father before it's born. New Years Eve is coming up.\n.

You are not going to change his mind.  If he is not willing to marry for the sake of your child, your personal wishes are not of any consequence.  After all, how much worse can it get than changing diapers?

From a Christian point of view, I have to say no, because it is sin.  However, if you are not a Christian, then this is not a factor.  So weigh the pros and cons.  Do you love the person?  Are you willing to spend the rest of your life with this person if you end up having a baby together?  \n\nWhat ever you decide to do, always be safe.  Practice safer sex, and after marriage, you should wait for a couple of years to make babies.  Take time to enjoy each other before you bring another person into your new family.

I think that you should leave him and look for somebody who will love you in return  before you leave him tell him that he can see the baby anytime he wants.  Tell him you deserve to be loved and that you need somebody that you can trust not to hide anything if he really cares about you and the baby he'll try to work out things between the two of you.  If not then you might as well start looking for somebody else.

"I want a baby, and I want it NOW!!" Ha! Ha!  My husband is the opposite, he wants a child now but I would like to wait , I am only 20.  We decided to compromise and wait a year or so,(I wanted to wait 5 years).  I don't know what to tell you to tell him!  Maybe you should ask him what his reasons for waiting are??

Yes you can, but make sure you get child support from him. Also if you are in a state that awards alimony I would go for that also.

Tell him that your pregnant and see what his reaction is.

Sounds like if he doesn't want the baby he will leave anyhow. I would kinda get ready for that. He might surprise you afterwards the first time he lays eyes on his son or daughter..You being pregnant you do not need any unwanted stress..I would get my support ready, family, friends, ect and go on with my life and get ready for the most beautufil thing in the world.

The last thing you want to do is pu him in a situation where he is uncomfortable to have a child.  don't push him.  It will come in time.

Do you really want a man that will turn his back on his unborn child, let alone a man that supposedly is in a relationship with you that goes out getting his so called close friends pregnant. Wake up Sister...dump the creep. You deserve better.
