not surr what to expect
So I just started dating/sleeping with this guy from work. Its been about 2.5 weeks. I just found out im pregnant. When I told him he handled it really well. He said he wants to be here for me, we talked about meeting each others family before we tell them. The last 3 days, since I told him, hes been kinda distant. He has had some family stuff going on and its been the holidays. Maybe it's just the preggo hormones kicking in already. I'm just scared to do this alone. I raised my 12 year old alone. I know its partially my own fault for not being more responsible. I dont know what to ask of him or if I should ask anything?
Honey that was too early, you may want to find out if he already has a family or another woman.
It's been a few days since your post, how is he acting now?
Yes this is the only guy ive slept with in over a year he is the dad.
can you clarify something, because I'm a little confused. Did you get pregnant by the guy that you were sleeping with and dating for two and a half weeks?
and you're saying he is the father? I'm sorry if I misunderstood but if you think you got pregnant by Him or someone else? because usually two and a half weeks is way too soon to know. And again I apologize if I misunderstood

2.5 weeks is pretty early in any relationship, and here he is with the biggest news ever, and is trying to get through Thanksgiving.
If you know for sure he is the only guy who could possibly have been the dad, in other words, you didn't break off with one guy and begin with another in a short time, you have the right to ask him what kind of role he will play in the future, for sure. And you did, and he stepped up manfully for the sake of the child.
But you have nine months to go. I would not go on mentally about whether you are going to be doing this alone, etc. and ask him for reassurance. I mean, if some guy and I were dating, and at only 2.5 weeks I began to ask him if he was there for the long haul, even in the absence of a baby, it wouldn't surprise me if it freaked him out.
Short answer is, you might be doing this alone and you might not, but this is very early to ask him to guarantee more than he has already guaranteed. Try not to be clingy, it won't do any good and is kind of inappropriate to such a new relationship.

I think it Could be just your hormones getting to you. Maybe talk to him about it, confirm he is going to be there for you and your baby.
