Adoption would be a great option considering your age, the father not being there and no family support. I understand that it would kill you but the most important thing is this baby and it's future.
All you can do about the father is wait to get a DNA test. He'll have to pay child support or go back to jail.
What ever you decide I wish you and this baby all the best.

Um...I think you should take this opportunity God has given you to make a difference in your life...if you feel alone and unloved then this baby is your chance to have someone look up to you and love you right back whole heartily and all...if you have no family, fck them for not being there for you but you be there for your blessing and you'll see the only love really worth fighting for is that babys love. I was pg at the same age too...go apply for govt. help and maybe housing, they give rides to appts and there are so many programs out there for young moms...once you get help if you don't have a job get one, nothing feels better then being like "hey you never supported me during my pregnancy but I was strong and I over came these obstacles on my own now I have a wonderful child who loves me unconditionally and your still the same bitter person." Your child is innocent, he never asked to have you as a mother so don't ever blame him for the **** that will happen to you in the future cause **** WILL happen all too often but keep remembering if YOU choose to raise your child do it correctly, last thing anybody wants is a cold blooded killer...prosper and live your life to fullest-with your child. Good luck...nothing is impossible if you just believe in yourself.

Have you thought about placing the baby for adoption? There are open adoptions where you could still be in the baby's life.
