Pregnancy Info HOME

please email me, i'm in a similar situation: email.emma@hotmail.com

First of all, having a boyfriend that is so possessive that he is glad he got you pregnant is a pretty big red flag, relationship-wise. Second, that's a good way to look at it, that you're fortunate you can even get pregnant. My husband and I have been trying for almost a year and haven't been able to. If you aren't sure you can handle a baby, but don't really want an abortion (which is totally understandable, what a horrible thing to have to put yourself through), you should talk about adoption. If you are interested, my email is promie@gmail.com Good luck, and really spend some time thinking about it before you do something that may really harm you.

Where were the condoms then if you didn't want this predicement to start off with? Huh??? The end............................

Or even some sort of other contraception since I guess he is/was your boyfriend???.................................................

wow...... its up to you hon.. i dont think its so bad he is happy.. but does he relise this is not short term and you are you ready for this.? its totaly your call but you only have two more weeks to decide.. good luck...... think about yourself its a big choice........ do whats right for all three of you.... remember a baby is a gift.. not something that is a burden.......

: I mean no disrespect, but whatever happened to people using condoms? Since abstinence is obviously not realistic, at least use condoms to prevent unwanted pregnancies and STDs. In my opinion, there is no reason to not know who is the father unless you are careless. I know this will probably p__s a lot of women off, but it may be a wake up call for others out there. Be responsible ladies. You are better than that! For those of you who are already pregnant, good luck with your pregnancies.

Enough with all the “why didn’t you use a condom” comments. It’s beside’s the point because she’s already pregnant and in the situation she’s in. I’ve been on some of the other forums on this site and so many people complain about the single and pregnant forum because of the lack of compa__sion and the rude, harsh and unnecessary comments. Come on people…….these women need support not your d__n criticism. Stop being so high and mighty…..obviously these things happen or there wouldn’t be a single and pregnant forum. To the poster; I understand what you’re going through. I too agonized over having an abortion or keeping my baby and I choose to keep the baby, but that was the right decision for me. This guy does not have you trapped because you are pregnant. If you decide to go thru with the pregnancy it doesn’t mean you have to continue the relationship because he supposedly “has you trapped”. When I was pregnant with my first child her father had the same mentality and I decided the relationship was not going to work and was not what I wanted and we parted ways and he pays child support and see’s our daughter and we only have contact because of her. He eventually moved on and now he’s married so the situation can change. If you know your are absolutely not ready for this child and do not want it I would say go with the abortion. Not an easy choice, I’ve had one previously, but you need to do what’s right for you and your life but don’t make this decision for your boyfriend make it for yourself. Good luck to you!

I agree with "Okay". Im sure she has beat herself up enough about not taking precautions. The only thing she can do now is make the best of it....and she asked what she should do now not what should she have done before she got pregnant.....Its your decision and just to let you know you are not "TRAPPED".At some point your child will be old enough to where you wont even have to speak to him at all (my 6 yr old calls her dad on her own when she wants to and all visitation is done through family members because I refuse to speak to him until he pays child support (but I do not keep her from him as it is not my place...) and there are some prices you will pay as a single mother but it is so worth it!!!!!!

I know that him being possessive was a huge flag and i told him straight up I wasn't going to be with someone like that and it has since gotten alot better. But the fact that he said he has me trapped made me freak. Since I found out that I'm pregnant i've noticed shows on tv that show women giving there kids up for adoption and I really cannot see myself doing that. I have also seen a couple end up keeping and I really think that is what I will probably end up doing. I only have 2 more weeks to decide and I've been thinking about it so much. He keeps telling me that he's ready for this and that he wants to marry me and he is so sure that this is going to work out. I just feel like I could feel that confident about everything too. It really doesn't help that my parents don't really care for him and it's going to be hard to break the news. My parents are so old school. I am a very independent woman and I know I will be able to take care of myself but I just don't want to be handling everything on my own. Thanks everyone for the advice.
