If he wasn't ready to be a dad then he should have been more careful. He NEEDS to know. If he tries to tell you that he won't support his child you need to take hi mto court when the baby is born and sue him for child support.

Sooner or later you'll have to. The baby bump will give it away if you don't. You've been together for 6 months..not a really long time but long enough that you should be able to talk to him. He may not be "ready" to be a dad but looks like he's going to be anyway. He'll probably be shocked at first but he'll get used to it. Don't let him talk you into doing anything you don't want to do (like abortion) if you don't want the baby give it up for adoption where it will at least have a chance at life. Stay true to yourself and be strong. Lots of women have babies at 20 and are great moms. You should tell him though. The sooner the better.

you should've told him the first day.
He might trip out but you need to talk to him about it. Are you going to keep it? If you both decide to keep it, then talk about how you can make it work and support each other. If you guys dont agree on what to do. Then remember that you have the over all choice. And you do what you think is best for you.
A lot of people have kids at a young age, and most of the time is works out, if you want it to.

Tell him, and if he's not ready to be the father, then don't put his name on the birth certificate. That way he can't change his mind years later and suddenly decide to be fair-weather daddy. But yes, make sure you tell him. Get the pregnancy test results from your doc, and share them with your guy.
If your guy can't handle it and leaves you, then you are better off without him. Your baby doesn't need that kind of daddy anyway.

yes you should tell him....he may not be ready but he has the right to know....but don't spring it on him sit him down and talk to him about it and discuss your concerns together...a good thing to do would be to get him and expecting dad book or something like that so he can prepare himself and knows what to expect while your pregnant and then when the baby is born...even if he freaks out at least you tried to share some wonderful news with him

Uh yeah u should tell him, he is the father, and if he didn't want 2 be a father then he should have been wearing protection, I'm not trying 2 be harsh or anything, but u 2 should talk and work it out, I'm sure u could do it!

Yes tell him for god sakes he will be happy also i did the same drank and coloured hair before i found out i was pregnant and everything was fine but you could always check with your doctor if you need the reassurance that what they are there for

at least you know that he is not ready to be a father
that mean the subject was discuss
Now I can ask why did you not make sure you use protection
but it is not only you that should have been responsible since he did not want to have a child he should have been the one making sure that protection was used
Yes you should tell him
but be aware that he might not be happy about it
Good luck & Congrats

Well, he's going to find out eventually... This is definitely something he needs to know, and the sooner, the better. It's a life-changing decision to have a child, and he as the father has the same rights as you to know that you are pregnant with his child.

for sure, but be prepared for him to freak out it is natural, and don't get in his face about it either let him take it in, in his own way.
if he is the dad he needs to be told whether you are ready or not, it might be in your body but it took both of you and it is just as much his as it is yours.
it is better to tell him right away, some guys can somehow tell/know--mine did before I even took the test.
