Ouch! Let's face it, he wasn't good permanent mate material to start off with. With him, any pregnancy is one you were going to have to face on your own. If he gets into a program you will probably hear from him, as he will enjoy contact with the outside world. When he gets out, you will again get pregnant and have 2 kids instead of one. So what-do-I-do #1 is don't expect anything from the boyfriend, nada, zip! Make your decision on what is best for you alone. #2 is you and you alone have to decide how to handle this pregnancy. You can carry and keep, carry and adopt, or terminate. It depends on your belief system, not that of a dozen other people. If you want to have the baby adopted, Google Birthright. For whichever option, Planned Parenthood 1-800-230-PLAN is a good place to start. They have prenatal programs and connections to abortion providers.

Contact a counseling center such as AAA Women's Services. God has a reason for every birth. Just look into adoption, if you aren't at a point where you could give the baby a good life.
