My girlfriend and I are outside talking and it turns out she thinks she is pregnant, we drive to Wal-Mart a little later to pick up a test, and sure enough two lines. So now looks like I'm gonna be a daddy in about 8.5 months!

It's definitely not a good thing that's for sure. What am I going to do? I only have maybe 1.5 years left in school so I'm going to finish that. The girlfriend and I already have a 3 bedroom house together, and I guess I'm going to raise a kid to the best of my abilities.

Anywho, I'm hoping for a boy.

Congratulations regardless. :)

We'll find out the sex of ours in about a month, with the due date being around the first of May.

if you were serious about not having any kids you would have been using some form of birth control.

You have a house and are almost out of school....How is this "definitely not a good thing"?

I'm not saying it couldnt have been somewhat better timing, but it beats the pants off "I live with my mom and started college 4 weeks ago". At that point, yes it is definitely not a good thing.

I leave the Gulf Coast for 5 months and the screw-fest begins. And the Saints start winning....

Congrats to both of you. Glad I'm not in either of your shoes. ;)

Well, it can't be all that bad, you and the girlfriend already seem to have a leg up on most "oops, I'm pregnant" couples (i.e. - 3 bedroom house, and you're mostly finished with school).

You gonna make an honest woman of her?

by-the-way - Congrats!

Congrats. The good outweighs the bad by 100 fold, so this is definitely not a bad thing. You'll find your life richer than you ever thought.

She was getting the shot which last what 3 months I think and I dunno it ran out and we were being careless.

It's not the end of the world, if you two can decide to grow up, be committed to each other and your family.

My girlfriend got pregnant at 20, I was 22... It was really fvcking hard, but 9 years later we're still in love and have three beautiful, wonderful kids.

Your youth is not the biggest obstacle you'll overcome in having a successful family.
