Pregnancy Info HOME

why not? Aren't you still a woman and need companionship and affection?

If I could find mr right, and he could accept the fact that Im pregnant then I would defidently date someone. Its really hard being single and pregnant. Also it sucks not to have the intimacy, and I imagine I wont have that for about at least a year now!

I wouldn't jump back into dating so soon if I were you. I would keep busy with work/school and surround myself with family and friends for strength and companionship. You don't want to make your situation any more complicated. I think you should tke a time out for yourself and prepare for the arrival of this baby. Getting involved with a man means feelings and attachment along with feelings and attachment for your baby. What if things don't work out?. I say wait until after the baby is born....then jump into the dating game.At least you will be busy with the baby and not be so emotionally vulnerable due to hormones. Take care

I dont see why people shouldnt agree with it. your still here and still the same person, but you have some one else to think about now. I think if a man wants to date a pregnant lady then good on him.. If you do find a man that does snatch him up theres not very many men around that would even consider dating a pregnant lady.. wish there were more..

Go for it girl! I have a few guy friends who are dating women with babies/ who are pregnant. They are great guys and are open to their gf's situations. You're just going to have to remain open and honest with the guy(s) and be careful about introducing your child to your bfs

I see nothing wrong with it if someone wants to date while pregnant. Me personally, I have chosen not to date. Would rather spend time by myself preparing for my baby. Plus the father is such a jerk I need a reprieve from men for a while :) I am moving out of state within the year and probably won't bother dating until I move...too much of a hassle for too little payoff, in my opinion!

I havent dated either and the father isnt trying to be friends like he said he wanted to be at all. Yet he is hanging out with another girl and her child... And isn't supporting me emotionally at all. Tells me HE is stressed. How do I deal with this?

I personally wouldnt choose to date while im pregnant, im still far too emotionally attatched to my ex and dont want to complicate things further for myself and my baby when there born by having a new man in my life. I did start seeing my best friend very soon after i broke up with my ex, and it was brilliant while it lasted but i couldnt get my ex out of my heart or mind so it ended after a few short weeks beacuse it was just hurting him and i could sit back and let that happen. My emotions were all over the place because i was doing everything at such a fast speed so thats when i took a step back from feeling like i 'needed' a man in my life to make me happy and concentrated on my baby and surrounded my self with family and friends to take my mind off my babys dad. If he doesnt want to be a big part in my life like the way id love him to be then im not gonna chase after him like i used to. If he wants us then hes gonna have to make an effort! but i really cant see that happening!! but every situation is different so if a pregnant women wants to date then she should go for it.

I am newly pregnant and definitely single. The daddy is wicked involved, but I want nothing to do with him. I am surely open to dating so long as the guy is cool with me being pregnant and knows that the dad is the dad.!!

Well i started dating a guy, just after I posted this. I met him over the internet,I know thats not too safe,,but we were tatlking on the phone for a while, and he new that I was pregnant and how far along I was,,we were only talkin as friends...so we decided to meet,,i met him with my sister,,,,we hit it off right away,,, our personalities just clicked....so we started to see each other..but I made it clear to him that Im not looking for a committed relationship, and that we could talk and hang out be (close) friends..lol....but I need to get my life in order first, before I started anything serious,,so we are just dating,,we talk everyday though and we really like each other,,but its nice to know that someone out there really likes me for me,,knowing my past and what Im dealing with now......im now 35 weeks and 3days and so excited to meet my little gurl.......Ive picked a name finally,,,,,,,,,,,Deauna Eva Alletta...

Good for you dsmom - sounds like you've met a very special guy. Good luck - enjoy these last few weeks!

WTF ?

wow...i'm speachless

huh!?!?! well... um.... am i supossed to name sumthing rude now?

Wow, I was just talking to my ex-husband about why I wasn't dating. To me, its like this...what man is going to want to date a woman who is pregnant??? My ex said that HE would, but I realize that he is just saying that because I am pregnant with HIS kid and he doesn't want to follow through with the divorce. But, I can't live with his drinking and blaming me for his miserable life. But seriously...not to hurt anyone's feelings, but I wouldn't date me or any other pregnant woman. I can't even get myself to look at men right now. I don't want to be somebody's burden. But, if the man is truly "right" I guess it should not matter to him.

I feel like scoripio, except my ex says no one is going to want to date me except the bottom of the barrel people because I am pregnant with his child. He also said no one in their right mind would date a girl with a child. **** him. But as soon as we broke up...I had guys rushing to ask me out. I was like you know my ex broke it off because I have a bun in the oven and they were like so...we have been waiting for this day. Despite their presetance I can't seem to bring myself to do it. I don't know if its because I am still hung up on the a$$hole father, who was my first and someone I have been with for many years, or if its because I never had high selfsteem and I don't see how being pregnant is attractive to any guy. and then there is the really negative person inside me that I am trying to kill, that says they only want you for sex and they don't have to worry about getting you pregnant. Right now I feel like I am having real trust issues with men. I am probably just crazy.
