No, but remember that what may not be the best person in your life is a father to your child and they deserve to build their own relationship.set up custody were The father gets a chance to be a father.

absolutely not, especially if it is a bad environment for the mother, which in turn makes it a bad environment for the baby. If a partner is unhappy and wants to leave, making each other suffer and live unhappy lives just because they had a baby is no way to live, and as long as there can be an agreement on custody and vistitation, etc. i would even recommend that they split up. The only people who say you have to stay together for the baby have never been in the situation.
put simply: if you suffer, baby suffers, and the baby is all that matters.
Good luck!

Hi,
Having a baby can be a difficult time emotionally for both you and your partner. As a direct answer to your question: You don't have to be with anyone. You must choose the best way to create an environment that is enriched with love and stability for your child.
Nobody on here can tell you what is best for you because we do not know: you, your partner, or your situation.
You should talk this problem through with someone who is prepared to listen to you, won't judge you, and that you can trust.
If you don't have a close friend who fits the bill, I suggest you seek out a 'relationship counsellor' so you can work out what direction you should take. Taking your partner along with you is often a good idea.
Best of luck.

If you are not happy then please part ways , you have to put your happiness first or you will not be able to make the baby happy, a good many people tuffed it out for the baby's sake , but the child grew up never seeing love between the parents, so he never learned how to show his affections .... it will backfire , staying for the baby is staying for the wrong reasons ,and nothing wrong has ever made anything right

No way, definately not. If you don't like a person it's not fair on you or the child to stay because in the long run there's a chance that child may detect the hate or lack of love shall we say & may think that is normal!

No, I'm in this same situation right now...if you don't love him and don't want to stay with him, then don't...in the end you won't be happy and the baby can sense that. Just make sure you give him a chance to be a dad if he wants to be

You can be with whomever YOU choose. Having a child is not a good reason to remain in a bad relationship. We are responsible for our own happiness! It would be great if a child would somehow make a bad relationship work but, unfortunately that is not the case. Life is all about the choices. Choose to be happy and follow your heart.

NO! If you are not happy then don't stay becuase of the child(ren) alot of people think its a good idea, but I remember when I was little and my dad beat my mom, she stayed with him because of me and my brother and it never got better. She told me when i was 17-18 that the reason she finally left is that she walked in on me singing the Barney song but i was singing "I hate you you hate me were a yucky family" and i was only 5 years old.

you should never be with anyone you do not love but remember you will have to deal with this person for the rest of your child's life
so think very hard about having a baby with anyone do you really want to see them all the time for the rest of your life and there family and freinds step parents and all that goes with it
i love all my children but man i regret everyday who there father is

No, but the father has the right to maintain a relationship with his child and the child has a right to maintain a realtionship with their father so you'd better be able to at least tolerate the person you had a baby with...or better yet...don't spread your legs for someone you don't want to be with.
