  • We can't answer that question for you. You'll have to look at your options and decide which would be the best one for you and your daughter. Good luck.

    Ditto this.

    Also just wanted to add though that if you do decide you want to be with your BF and try to make it work, that's great, just make sure you're chosing that path for the right reason (not because that's what you feel you SHOULD do). I guess I'm ultimately trying to say that if he's not the guy you don't want to be with long-term, don't stay with him just because you're pregnant. A baby is not going to strengthen your relationship if it's not solid to begin with. Sincere best wishes for you and your baby girl!

  • Whatever you decide, just be sure not to alienate those that you know for a FACT will support you and your baby. You are young, and I am guessing that your bf is as well. This will make it difficult to come to such adult decisions with so little preparation. Be strong for yourself and your little girl.

    Things will fall into place, and you will know in your heart what is right when the time comes to make such a difficult decision.

    Good luck and Congratulations.

  • You are young and I'm guessing Bf is young too.  Reality probably has not set in for bf yet.  If you don't want to be with him don't, but stay friendly.  When the baby is born he just may surprise you!  It is amazing what emotions and feelings holding your child can give you.  Me and my husband were barely 20 when our 1st was born and it took a while to grow up and face reality, but 11 years later and baby three on the way, I've feel so proud that he's my husband and father of my children. 

    Good luck!
