Oh, Stacy....that was my first thought the other day when you were posting about being so tired and the smells affecting you and all. Just didn't feel right suggesting it on this forum. How does this affect your decision to leave your boyfriend? I'm sure you haven't even had time to process it all. Just be strong and give it a lot of thought before you make any decisions. He will be the father of this baby (and financially responsible, although with what you've told us that may be doubtful), but that doesn't mean you need to choose a life with him. Think long and hard what you want for yourself and this precious baby....you'll do the right thing for both of you.
A baby is definitely a gift from God and reason for joy, no matter what the cir****tances. All the more reason to take extra good care of yourself now....for that little one's sake. I only gained 6lb with my second child and had a healthy 8lb+ baby girl.....always kidded that if I'd just gone on to have 6 more kids I'd be at my goal weight!!
You are in my thoughts and prayers....Sherrie
Well HOLY COW! Congratulations!!!!
I guess this makes things a whole lot different hey?! How exciting!
I hope all this excitement doesn't make you forget the reasons you moved in with mom... "He told me if I stay with him it'll probably be the biggest mistake of my life because he can't give me what I want (including a child.)" Emotions can run so strong at times like this.... I stayed with my ex because I had my dd with him. It was two years of pure HELL before I got out. And now- years later, I feel like it was 2 WASTED years of my life. I had a much more secure family life as a single parent than I ever did with him.
Whatever happens... I am so excited for you! I loved being preggo, and love kids! Once the shock and fear mellows out... you will do just fine!
CONGRATS again little mama!

Stacy, congrats!!!!
Just PLEASE don't get back with him or marry him because you feel that's the right thing to do or that you don't have a choice. I know people have differing opinions about it - this is just my opinion.
Let me just tell you, I didn't marry my little boys father for a few years. My pregnancy wasn't planned, I barely knew him but we did the best we could and made a go of it. When we knew it was right, we were married and things have been just fine. It doesn't always work that way though. I guess my point is - you have options. Do ONLY what you feel in your heart is right.
Stay healthy and stay strong.
Congrats again, babies truly are a blessing.
Congrats! You will work out all the money stuff, to be sure, it takes more than money to raise a baby.
Your life, of course, but: Don't feel like you have to try and get back with daddy at this point. He needs a job and more commitment to being a grown up, it seems to me. I hope you believe me when I say having one baby - your new one will be enough.
Don't let that slacker back in too easily!
I can feel that you are excited. Congratulations i see a rosy chubby girl baby in your future.
