There's never a happy ending. He obviously didn't think enough of you to stay out of trouble. What sort of a father is he going to be? We look up to our parents for support and guidance. What a great example to set for his child.

Has he not been sentenced yet? If not you will need to wait and see how long he gets and how long he needs to serve. We do not know what he is being accused of.... From experience, I always found it hard to cope with mothers who had children and their father was in prison for horrible crimes. How do you explain to your child that their dad is not there for them because he is in prison for killing someone, or stabbing someone, or even raping another woman?
Obviously your partner may not have committed such a crime - we do not know.... People who end up in prison very rarely have happy endings and neither do their families or friends! I am not quite sure what your happy ending would be but you need to think carefully about the man you want to be with and decide if this is what you want for yourself and for your child. Good luck.

Hi! I've had two friends in the same situation and one had an abortion and became so depressed, she had to be institutionalized for a few years and my other friend had twins and kept them. Her man is in for life, but she is so happy she has her two kids (One boy, one girl) she gets to visit her man and have conjugal visits and her kids are now 6 yrs. old and beautiful! She doesn't have alot to offer her kids when it comes to money, but she gives them lots of love and when she gets lonely, she has them. All very tiny children are miracles and will be someone the mother will need someday. Just because a father is in prison, doesn't mean the child is bad. Look at everything with a positive spin no matter what and you will end up a strong and happy women. Pray for your man in prison. He most likely is still young and has a long life to grow and change. I really wish you good luck sweetie and I will pray for you!

When I found out i was pregnant I surprised myself. I had split up with my fella when I got a positive test. I was really frightened at first but realised I could take care of myself and my child on my own if that was what I needed to do. I don't want to be a downer but prepare for the a slightly less than perfect ending so that you can get on with being a single mum if needs be and if it all turns out you will be able to enjoy it as a bonus

Oh don't worry about him for pity sake. This will be the best time for you if you just let it.
Men are pretty well useless when it comes to pregnancy so let him sit this out and you can find a caring midwife and support person to help with the delivery.
If you love him things will be fine in the end anyway and when he's out hopefully he will do the right thing by you and the baby.

What ever you do don't have an abortion. Most women never recover from the emotional trauma.
If you feel that you cannot offer a stable home to the child, please consider adoption. There are many couples who cannot have thier own child that would love to raise yours.
I wish you all the best for your future. Maybe next time pick your boyfriends a little more carefully!

im 13 weeks too and have left the father because we got on better as friends. i know its going to be a struggle on my own but it is do-able.
don't listen to what the critics have to say, this is YOUR life.
Don't worry about how long he will get, think of the little life your bringing into the world and how happy it will make you AND him if he is around.
This isnt your fault but dont hate him for it either, you just have to deal with the problem and get on with it. Good Luck

Love the child and just wait and see what happens between you and the father. If things work out with him, that's great. If not, the child will still be a blessing with no limits.
