How are you studying to be a nurse if you haven't started your degree? I'm figuring that you must be in some kind of program...
Anyway, my mom went through nusring school (as have thousands of other women) while she had children. If you want it bad enough; then you will continue to pursue your goal.
Sometimes children are brought into our life for a reason- and as far as your relationship, if it's unstable, see if there is a way to fix it, if not... it isn't the end of the world... worse things have happened ;-)
Alot of colleges now even have daycare for their students... keep that in mind.
Nurses make fantastic money and if you end up being a single mom, just know that you will be able to provide a much better life for your child than if you hadn't finished school.
Good luck whatever you decide to do.

If adoption is not an option then just go on with your plans. Pregnacy is not contageous. Sure you may be tired and it will most definetly be harder for you but, your baby will have a mom who can support it when you are out there earning good money. There is a shortage of nurses and they can work in so many areas so if I were you I'd go for it and get that father to help out one way or the other. He played the game too, you weren't all alone.

You better do some soul searching. As far as if you want to continue the relationship or not. You can raise a baby on your own and it is not healthy for the baby to be upset, however, studying nursing you did not need me to tell you that. I would not give up my education, i would continue on and get my degree and it will benefit both you and the child in the long haul. Good luck to you and God bless

It would seem that you may have to put nurse school on hold for a while. Be determined though...and get back on tract after the birth.
As for the relationship is concerned...you need to take a good look at it. Determine if its going anywhere, and if not step away.
You are at a pivotal crises. Use your common sense to propel you forward. Don't lose your ambition and don't let anyone else get in your way.

Adoption is your best option then. You and the baby's father are too young and too unstable to provide for the baby. Give him/her a fair chance in life by letting a mature, stable secure couple raise him/her. It's the right thing to do.

take care of u n that baby...even the unstable relationship isn't as important as those 2 things......i would call someone who is dependable and stable in your life, even if it's a family member....u need that now and will for a year or so till u get the feel....

You know you only have two choices then, raise the baby or give it up for adoption.
