Alone and Pregnant...

I do not want my baby to grow up thinking that his/her father doesn't care (even though its true).

Here is some advice about your above statement. I will accept it as fact that you will raise your daughter in her father's absence.

When you are asked about his whereabouts by your child, tell her that he was not ready to be a father/companion/friend/spouse and that he left. Do not include anything judgmental about him. If she asks how it made you feel, then talk about your anger, disappointment, hurt, etc.

And Bronson's correct.

May GOD bless you now and in motherhood

Hi e motera, well i got preg. With my first child at 16 yrs old , my family was not happy with me but had no choice to except it , eventually they will come around and will grow to love the baby unconditionally. My daughters father has really never cared nor done much for her and the sad thing abt it is that he sopposably wanted her. Now she is almost 9 yrs old and he doesnt even know when her bday is thats how much he loves her , he doesnt even call to know how she is doing ,  nor to say goodnite or to even see if shes alive,. Thankfully i married a great man andhe's a great stepfather to my daughter , supports her financialy as well as emotionally, see wat im tryn to say is he might not be around but it doesnt mean that u wont find someone who will step up and do his job , there are great men out there , but i must worn u its gonna be a very emotional ride b 4 u become a strong single mother, only u can make this decision ur 19  , ur an adult just follow ur heart this decision will affect u for the rest of ur life.. Hope this info was helpful.....
