I have been with my girlfriend for 6 months- We have fallen head over heals in love and we have been discussing marriage for the past 3 months. We have both been in other relationships are we just "Got It:) We have been using birth control for the entire in time. We have been living together happily in San Francisco since July and are both successful. Yes, we moved fast- But things are working out perfectly!
And now ther juicy part- After a routine check up "B" was told she was pregnant. We both found out today and I went with her to the dr. office. for the actual ultrasound. I took her to back to work and I took the rest of the day off.
This woman is my dream come true in every possible way. Tonight we are going to discuss this together- I am going to ask her to marry me- She is 24- I am 32. What do you think of all of this? I want it all with her- I am off to pick her up from work- Thanks for your input!

Dude! If you used birth control (I assume it was rubbers as she wouldn't get pregnant on the pill) do you remember one of them breaking or something. I don't want to say she was fooling around, but you didn't make much sense in how this happened and you specifically said you were using birth control the ENTIRE time. If it is some one elses, OF COURSE she wants to get married. No one wants to be a single mother. I'm happy you are in love, is she?
If you have ANY question of who the kids dad is, get a DNA test NOW. Perhaps you could include in your comments what happened to make the birth control ineffective. There aren't that many days a month that a woman can get pregnant and it seems pretty strange it just so happened to fail on one of those days. I seriously doubt that you would have written this question if you weren't already thinking about it. The other possibility is that you let her take care of the birth control. In that case, she may have done it on purpose because, if there is one thing a woman knows, it's how to keep from getting pregnant and they are pretty thorough about it. Hope it all turns out well. Good luck.

well seems you weren't using birth control all the time like you seem to think. honestly i hope it all works out for you but ask yourself this you are living under the same roof at the moment so marriage whats the rush. you have a baby on the way. Let that sink in first. you are both in for a reality check when the baby comes along. enjoy what is going on with you two now don't go running to get married just yet you have all your lives to do that.

Congratulations on the pregnancy first. And, although as I have gotten older I do believe in taking things slower sometimes it okay to move quickly. Obviously you love one another and now you two are going to be responsible for a child ( I have 2 and it is a great responsibility to have) But now your loyalty lies to your daughter / son. As a soon to be father you need to treat it's mother the best way possible. Make sure that you two discuss everything, get your priorities straight and do what's best for the baby.

OK, let's get going on this ....
1. Oh honey I am so glad you are pregnant. Are you OK? How are you feeling?
2. Rub her tummy a little with your hand and kiss her tummy.
3. Get down on your knees
4. Ask her if she would do the honor of marrying you.
5. Have some non-alcoholic bubbly waiting for her
6. If she says yes, say you want to go shopping for an engagement ring.
7.If she says no, allow her her space- ask her what her concerns are.
8. Congratulations on your pregnancy.
Good luck and tell her you will take care of her and the baby and that you love her and the baby.

I think it is wonderful that you both love each other so much. It looks like you two are on the road to parenthood. I hope that you both want this and it won't create any problems, because from the sound of it, you two are one of the very few happy couples in the entire universe.
Good luck to you both and may God bless you!!!

That's great, congrats! Please remember this is the rest of your life we're talking about. If you're not certain you can wait until you are. That is what I wish some one had said to me. I was 18 years old and didn't have as much life experience as you both. What I mean is, I consider my first marriage the biggest failure in my life and don't wish that misery on anyone. I wish you both a long and happy life together.

Its not always time that makes it work. And if she feels the same way you do then " Congratulations ". I knew my second husband for 6 months when we had gotten married. It lasted 18 yrs. However, we had allot more age difference between us. So please do not think that in 18 yrs you will be divorced. I send wishes of the best for you both.

To me you two have already made the decision to be make a life together. What is there to discuss. A baby is on the way. I think it would have been better had your ages been a little closer, but that impales in the light that you two are now expecting a child. Do what is best for your coming baby. God bless.
