You still have so much time to have a baby. Go get your education!
Thereâs red flags EVERY WHERE here honey. No donât get pregnant right now. Its a huge red flag that he us trying to FORCE you to get pregnant by telling you not to take birth control. Hello? Your in school trying to become a Dr and thats going to take YEARS. Its a red flag that hes so desperately wanting to be like his sisters man too⌠that tells me that he probably has a history of being just the polar opposite of the great man his sister is engaged to⌠yeah he wishes he could be a good man like she has but ive never met a man thats already good who wishes he could be a good man. I mean come on use some common sense here. He clearly has some issues. I wouldnât say you should leave him yet but thereâs definitelyres flags and things that if you just reread this should stand out to you that are cause for concern and to keep an eye out for. My lord do not get pregnant. Youâve known each other for 2 months. Why is he rushing to trap you? He doesnât want to lose you, ok but thats no reason to trap you. Theres some red flags that he has abusive tendencies here⌠im sure if you told us more about your relationship weâd find more red flags for control and abuse. Iâm honestly having a really hard time believing that you are 27. Because this sounds so immature. Iâve been in love lust like that. Its obsessive and fun at first. But lust is not love. Theres a serious difference in the longevity of a lust based relationship vs a love based relationship. Trust me, having a baby with a (possibly emotionally abusive) man youâre in LUST with just a few months into the relationship is BIG NO NO! Think about this because everything youâve told him about being unsure makes complete and logical sense. Do not let him push you into getting pregnant with his empty promises of hopes for the future. Thats good that he wants to be with you long term but its not time for a baby. You know that.
No donât have a baby with him.
He says you are not gonna break up probably because he wants to get you pregnant to try to get you to stay with him. He is gonna change and be controlling!
Oh Lord. You will love a child and miss your life or have your life with a child. Being forced or compelled to have a child, just to hold on to each other? The child is the important issue. If you are not ready and you definitely do not know this person,⌠Nevermind, you already decided what you are going to do. You know what works for you. A child is forever. They fulfil all the promises you put in them. Are you a person who yells when she gets angry? Are you patient to get the results you want? If your goals are actual GOALS then how could you get derailed by sex?
Nope. Just NO!!! Too soon to have a baby with him even if you werenât going to Med School. Even though they are a blessing, Babies/Children are very very hard. Fulfill your dreams. If he loves you he will support you with this decision. You have plenty of time. Enjoy your relationship with him baby free. A child will change that relationship. They take up a lot of time and emotions run deep. It can be hard on the strongest of relationships.
First of all, not protecting yourself is absolutely irresponsible. Not just because of the huge likelihood and possibility of pregnancy but also because of STDâs.
Secondly, him purposely finishing in you without your consent and him trying to get you pregnant this soon into the relationship is a huge red flag!!! Thatâs a means to control you. Having children with someone so quickly in a relationship, is playing a dangerous game. You donât even really know him. You have a very bright future ahead, one that needs your 100% focus right now. This relationship is in an infatuation stage. Get to know him. Set boundaries. Get on birth control and continue to pursue your education.
Me and my fiance started out exactly like this now we are a year and a half in and we waited things are still good! Definitely wait find out how good you guys are together after the honeymoon phase then have a baby after school no need to rush forever!
I deff dont recommend a baby rn. Logically even if he isnt gonna leave theres always that chance he might not like you pregnant your hormones do change. Let him get to know you and you get to know him to the fullest before deciding to have a baby. 2 mos isnt long enough to know someone.
Use your common sense, babies are wonderful but you have many years for that!! Stay focused and pursue your education, if you donât down the road you are going to regret it!
2 months? Umm no. You are still in the honey moon stage. Still getting to know each other. Give two years. Takes at least a year to get past the new stage
You barely know each other and both sound very immature. If spending the rest of your life with him and having babies is a good idea it will still be a good idea once youâre a doctor. If he really loves you as much as he claims heâll support whatever you decide as itâs your body that carries and labors the baby.
Uhh he decided he was getting you pregnant without even discussing it with you, thatâs a HUGE red flag in itself. You donât know this man, youâve only seen what he wants you to see. Wait 2 years and then decide
Yes, youâre being dumb. Itâs been two months and you have unfulfilled dreams. I promise the chances of you going to med school and becoming a doctor if you continue on the track youâre on, are slim. Wait girl! Protect yourself. If he loves you, heâll understand and wait to have a baby. I mean, really, just re read what you posted. Young, dumb love. You know what you need to do.
Education first. Baby later. I went through that myself. The last 6 years have been so hard for us. And I even tried doing school after kids. Highly recommend education first. Get to know your partner first.
Way too soon to make that decision. If you decide to get pregnant you likely ( not necessarily )can kiss your medical ambitions goodby. .Better get hold of your life instead of handing it over to someone else !!
What the fuck?! This has to be a troll post , hahahaha
Fulfill your dreams!! Take it from someone who didnât and do YOU FIRST!! The rest will come when itâs time! Medical school is a huge undertaking and you need to be able to focus. If this guy is serious, he will be supportive of you regardless. If he gets bent because you want to wait, thatâs a control issue and you should walk away! Talk to him, communicate your dreams and go for them first!!
Are you ready to marry this man? Is he ready to marry you? Probably too soon to make that decision, right? Rushing into that would be stupid⌠So why, if youâre not ready to make that commitment, would you even consider making the biggest commitment of all, a child? If either one of you is a decent person, the child will dictate all the remaining choices in your life. They come first. And kids are expensive.
Forget going to medical school. Do you really want to give up your dream for some fantasy with a.man you barely know? People say all kinds of things. Doesnât mean theyâll do it when reality hits.
Guuuurrrrllllll! WTF? Are you serious?
First of all⌠Youâre allowing someone else to make a decisionâŚA VERY BIG LIFE DECISION⌠For you, instead of with you.
Secondly⌠Two months is nothing! I dated a man that faked a whole damn relationship for two damn years of my life⌠You think an idiot canât fake what heâs about for two damn months? (Weâre not talking about my attachment issues here⌠Iâve been to therapy for my $hit)
And finally⌠You say youâre going to be a doctor and youâre premed. Whew⌠Iâm really fighting the sarcasm here⌠Iâll try to be constructive. Youâre not in any damn honeymoon phase! Your donât even know this dude! How is is he? Whatâs he done with his life? Cause itâs the answer is nothing⌠No great accomplishments⌠He sees an opportunity to lock you in. Most people great âdoctorâ and think money⌠And youâll be thinking that too when he abandons you and your love child, leaves you as a single parent and you have to pay his ass to go the fâck on down the road and leave you alone!
Itâs this for real?! Like⌠This ainât a joke? Somebody take her damn phone! Youâre grounded! No making adult decisions for you until youâve been to therapy and youâve got your attachment issues all worked out! UghâŚdamn.
IN ALL SERIOUSNESS⌠Girl⌠That is some serious red flags! Donât walk, run the other direction. Delete his number. Cut off all contact! And really⌠Talk to a therapist. Are you really willing to put all your hard work in jeopardy OVER A DAMN MAN! If heâs for real⌠Heâll still be for real in a couple more years. Get on some birth control and donât give the the power you have (i.e. making sound decisions for your own life) to someone else. Youâll end up with nothing but regret.
And for godâs sake⌠Why would you have a child with someone when their merit hasnât been tested? I donât care if he wants to be like Mr. Fâing Rogers⌠Itâs a beautiful day in the neighborhood⌠Except when it ainât!
Be realistic. Finish school. Having a child can wait.
If your BF loves you, he should understand that.
2 months with a new boyfriend and youâre considering having a baby? Thatâs insane.
Pursue your education if that is what you really desire. It is tough alone and even harder with a baby on the way. While pregnant you need to limit stress, get rest, eat right and get off your feet at certain times amd in med school you canât do it. Things are deemed necessary at certain times. Go to school, get to know him and build that love for each other and it will make having the baby later more special.
Even without taking into consideration your plans to go to Med school. Girl, itâs too early to be thinking about babies. You two have only been together two months. The only way I could see this as less bonkers is if heâs a really good childhood friend turned boyfriend. But even so what you need from a friend and what you need from a future husband and what you need from a future father to your child are different. Many men were amazing boyfriends turned crap husbands. My husband was a wonderful boyfriend and husband when we were childless but is TBH a mediocre father. And we were together 6 years, living together for 5, before we got pregnant. My advice is take the time to get to know each other better. Highly suggest living together before tying the knot. Actually conquer some other big life hurdles together before taking on the big one of bringing a new life into this world. And please protect yourself on the meantime.
You are an intelligent woman. Please donât fall for his trap. Be responsible. If youâre going to be together forever, then you can wait for the baby, continue to grow together. Babies change everything! Literally everything. And trying to go to medical school while also being a new mom might prove to be almost impossible. Please follow your dreams. There is time for babies, later in life. Good luck sister.
Trust yourself. Take your time. If he truly wants to make a baby with you, heâll wait until you are ready.
In the meantime, if you are not ready for that adventure quite yet, protect yourself girl!
Be smart and consider the âwhat ifâs â
What if- we get pregnant and her up and decides this isnât really what he wants and leavesâŚhow you gonna support you and a child? NEVER depend on someone to help with finances. Itâs all on you girl. Your dreams will be replaced with worriesâŚare you ready for that? Having a baby after you finish meds school is a wiser choice, if your man hangs around during your school years, long hours of studying, and residency hours, then he is truly the one for you. Inform him of all that is required of you while in school, that should show him that now is not a good time to bring a child into this world, plus you all donât even know each other enough to make a life changing decision like this. Give it time, remember your dream, think with your head, not your heart.
Slow down! Youâve only been together two months. Focus on your career.
Yes you still are in the honeymoon stage. Sorry, but get real.
Youâve been together two months. Just eight weeks. Please think about this, itâs a massive red flag.
Girl, be 27!! Get your degree, then have the baby! Babies at 27 arenât easy, especially with a new relationship. Determine if you two can stay together before you bring another human life into it.
When asking if youâre being dumbâŚYES. I truly hope this post is a joke
Go get on birth control , he donât even need to know . Which is thatâs something you have to hide in the first place is a red flag tbh hopefully you could just tell him and heâd understand. Youâre not ready you have things in life youâre trying to pursue do NOT put your life on HOLD for ANYONE . TRUST ME
Become a doctor first and then have all the children you desire.
Youâre young and have plenty of time. Go to medical school. If youâre still together after you graduate and you feel that, knowing what youâre residency will be like, you can handle it, then get married and have kids. Do not get pregnant by a guy youâve only known for 2 months regardless of what he says.
Do I think you should wait, yes Do I think you should pursue your MD before children, yes. This is just a thought as well but my husband at 41 and still has pissing contests with other men over the dumbest things, so maybe while yes he admires his future BIL he also may want to upstage him as well. And say well I did all the same things you did but I did it while having a child, granted its a super microscopic reason but a quarter of a inch is a quarter of a inch to guys and they will never admit it.
Also, its been two months everything in the world seems like rainbows and unicorns and I know you said you have gotten into arguments but they were probably quickly resolved with both of you apologizing and admitting fault because the thought if losing the other was too harsh too bear⌠This is the honeymoon phase of a relationship⌠When you are elbow deep in your internship for school and say he looses his job and you have a screaming toddler so your chips canât get lower how is that going to play out and after 2 months do you truly know someone well enough to take a educated guess?
This man is trying to trap you, heâs been purposely trying to get you pregnant without you knowing thats some shady stuff. At this point I wouldnât trust him. Btw child support can go both ways. Like if he makes way less than you you will have to pay him. Sounds like heâs got a hidden agenda hun
Holy crap dude, 2 months!? Youâve been with him for 8 weeks⌠thatâs insane. Back up back up back up. You need to back the hell up dude. Thatâs dangerous af. Go to school for Pete sake and wait for a freaking baby
I canât believe how many people laughed at your question. Thatâs so messed up, but whatever your heart is telling you to do . Seems like you had it all planned out
Having a baby in your 30s is awesome, I have to say. Being more financially stable and mature has been good for our family. Not that you are not but if you have dreams, get out there and live them because once the baby comes, your dreams can change, or you may never âget around to it.â If heâs gonna be the one whoâs by your side forever, my advice would be to not rush it. In my experience, Iâve had two kids. My first I went back to work and it was so emotionally draining on me. My second, and were more financially stable that I didnât have to go back to work, but between kids I found a good paying job that I loved. I gave it up to be a stay at home mom because the older is needing taken places and the younger just needs everything being so young. Once baby is here for you, I canât imagine having time to study let alone sleep.
Only 2 months in and he is already moving at the speed of light trying to get you pregnant without discussing it first when he already knows about your doctor dreams. Honeymoon stage and already had several arguments. If you are not careful you could be getting yourself tangled up with a narc as these red flags are classic narc behaviours. My advise is give it time and watch him very carefully. His reaction to you postponing any baby plans will also be very informative!
Finish school first then start a family. If heâs not going anywhere thereâs no rush.
Not if you are planning on going to medical school. Wait until you graduate to start a family.
Get on the pill or some other form of BC you have dreams and for him to feel the need to keep telling you the type of man heâs going to be talk is cheep he should be showing you not trying to convince also knowing full on well you have dreams for a career and your future having a baby will get in the way. It sounds like heâs trying to trap you donât let that happen if he really loves n cares for you he will respect that and let you achieve goal first then you can plan a family your so young you should not start a family with some boy if he commits to you n yell marry down the line THEN youâll know heâs serious and going to be there to support you he sounds like x and itâs a huge red flag. What are his dreams what does he do for work ? Or he just wants to knock you up and live off you since you actually have your life in orderâŚDONT LET HIM DISTRACT YOU OR IMPREGNATE unless itâs your dream to be an unwed mother before you can support your family âŚjust seriously think this thru
While I do not think a baby will postpone any dreams you have it is best to wait. Youâve only known him for two months, he may seem like a great person but it can take a while for people to let you see their true selves. If you do end up pregnant it doesnât change anything; finish school, you can do it. Iâm a mom of four, full time job, and my husband is an over the road truck driver; guess what, I am still a law student with a 4.0 GPA. Never let anyone tell you something will stand in the way of your dreams. Only you can do that. Just tell him you want to start a life with him, but you have plenty of time for children later, there is no rush. If he doesnât accept that, he isnât the one. If he does then youâre set. Goodluck!
Right now no if your not okay with being forced to Get the Covid vaccination that isnât even approved vaccination special if you wanna have children and breast-feed.
Why have a baby⌠live, enjoy your relationship and finish school
Wait until AFTER med school. Slow down and enjoy each other first. If he doesnt understand then hes not the one
Men come and go but a career is for life. Follow your dreamsđ
Yes to your question
Finish school first and get yourself established as a dr. Then if you still feel the same about each other try to have a baby then
Didnt hear u talk about getting marriad sounds like yall need to take ur time either way u go doctor or mother is life time occupation
A baby wouldnât necessarily postpone any dreams but would make it extremely difficult. Med school is already SO hard even without a baby. If he truly loves you, he wouldnât want to make things harder for you. What is the rush to have a baby now?
Slow down , wait and see then in acouple years maybe then decide to have a baby. Having a baby with any one is a bad idea ⌠parenting is not easy⌠so many topics to disagree on eyc
Things are better planned and that means being responsible. Look for birth control and keep working hard towards your goals
Settle down!!! Keep taking precautions to not get pregnant. Follow your dream. If itâs true love he will be there in a few years.
Please get on birth control immediately. You have so much potential and you have plenty of time to have a baby AFTER you get to know true man, get engaged, get married, get your degree. He is not supporting your dreams by getting you pregnant this soon.
If I could magically take over your life, Iâd immediately prevent getting pregnant and Iâd focus on my career to be financially stable.
Itâs good to have steady income for both of you in case something ever happens to your or your partners income, you still have another source.
Then Iâd be able to settle down and afford to spend time at home raising my kids, stress free.
The first year after your first child is the hardest year your learning how to be a parent and how the other person parents. I hope it works out for you.
Birth control immediately. Education first. Have men take a backseat.
Itâs so early in the relationship. Finish school, and Iâm all about living together before any of that because masks tend to fall off.
The fact that you are asking a bunch of strangers is your answer.
So many things wrong with this post. Some of the most educated and intelligent people have no common sense. GROW UP, you sound like a fourteen year old girl in Junior High.
He was trying get you pregnant without telling you? Youâve been together 2 months. Donât throw your career away.
The week I graduated and became a doctor, I also became a mom. Iâd never change a thing. Now I have a 4 year old, a 16 month old and Iâve been running my own functional medicine clinic (very successfully) the whole time.
Both dreams can be fulfilled.
When it comes to having kids, thereâs never a right time. You just do it and make everything else work.
Mind you, I was 2 years into marriage, not with a boyfriend fling.
Any man who truly loves you and believes in you is also going to believe in your dreams and want you to achieve them. Having a baby puts that in jeopardy. Is it possible to have a baby and go to med school and have the fairytale ending with this guy? Sure. Is it likely, especially considering how new the relationship is, the fact that you have doubts, and how this whole thing is based in a fantasy of how he âis goingâ to treat you? Doubtful. Trying to get you pregnant without your knowledge or consent is manipulation. Heâs manipulating your life to trap you with him and youâre going along with it because heâs telling you everything you want to hear. And, Iâm sorry, but someone saying âthatâs how I WANT to treat youâ means nothing. He either does or he doesnât. Iâve dated abusive guys who say, âI want to be better for you and treat you like you deserve.â No they didnât, because if they did then they would already have been doing it. Youâre in love and in the honeymoon stage of this relationship so youâre not seeing things clearly and noticing the red flags. Thereâs nothing wrong with taking time TOGETHER before having a baby. I moved in with my husband very soon after we started dating and got engaged 6 months after that, but we waited two years before we got married and spent another two years of just the two of us before getting pregnant. We enjoyed each other without the stress of a baby because we loved each other and made each other happy. A baby is amazing and one of the best things that can happen to you if thatâs what you want, but they also add humongous amounts of stress to your physical and mental health, your relationships, finances, and your work/school. If he truly loves you as much as he says he does, then just spend time together without having to add a baby to the mix and go to school. If you donât go to school, you might resent that baby and trust me, kids born to parents who resent them grow up knowing they made their parentsâ lives harder and that affects them. Plus, you didnât say that the brother in law got the sister pregnant so this man heâs idolized isnât trapping the woman he loves, heâs supporting her education and just being happy with her. So no, Iâd get on birth control immediately, tell him a baby isnât happening right now, and if you want to know who he truly is, move in with him cause thatâs when all the masks come off and you find out how they really are. But donât throw away your dreams on a man you just met. You already have doubts so you know what you want. This is real life, not a Disney movie, and you canât get stuck with a guy you just met cause he says all the right things. Date him, live with him if thatâs what you want, but you donât need to make a life long commitment to someone just because they say pretty things when you have a huge career right ahead of you.
Why not focus on building the relationship first? Life and relationships change after a baby. And those babies get bigger and require all your energy and time. Get your education so you will be financially stable to have a family. Age shouldnât be a concern; you have plenty of time. I had my kids at 39 and 40. I have a career and home and car, and can afford daycare. Plan it and be patient.
FINISH SCHOOL. Itâs the best thing to do for you and any future you plan. FINISH SCHOOL. Travel the world together then have kids. Kids make it all that much harder
2 months ago you didnât even know this man, and now youâre contemplating having his baby? Do you, follow your dreams, if you he loves you he will stay. Please get on birth control.
SLOW DOWN! Youâve got to become a Dr first. Go from there.
No go to school first
I would do marriage first before having a baby. Finish school if it happens okay but things will be ALOT harder depending on how much help you really have. Words are one thing but actions are another. Just finishing my bachelors I had a super hard time even with the help of my parents, my husband at the time, and his parents. Kids do put a strain in marriage and relationships. Accomplish your goals first. Med school is a lot harder than a simple bachelors.
I am currently in school for my masters and I have a six yr old. It is by far the hardest thing Iâve ever done! Trying to juggle being a mom, wife, student, and working is a LOT. I would advise anyone to finish school first, then have kids. I often canât pay attention to my six year old in order to work on homework, you canât neglect a baby. Something will have to give, whether it be school or your relationship
No Get yur education and then think about the rest.
Red flag mama. Finish school. You donât have to have a baby right now. And if it wasnât a discussion before him actively trying to impregnate you⌠seems like heâs trying to trap you.
Start using birth control (so you donât get pregnant). Live together until youâve finished school (so you can really get to know each otherâs worst habits). Get married (if you think you still love each other enough to spend the rest of your life with each other). Have babies. (love them without blaming them for the loss if your dreams of becoming a doctor).
Do it in this order and have a happy well adjusted family!!
Slow the roll and get on birth control. You barely know this person
Donât get pregnant now. You have at least another 10 years of pre-med, medical school, residency and possible fellowships ahead of you. You two are going from 0 to 90 way to fast. Medical school is very expensive. Why are yo two in such a hurry? At the very least, get through your pre-med program and medical school first.
TLDRâŚBUT why TF are you thinking about getting pregnant 2 months into a relationship?
Are you sure youâre smart enough for medical school?
Having a baby isnât a spur of the moment decision. Go through couples counseling first to see where both of you stand on topics and life
Finish school⌠get married, THEN have a baby when you BOTH agree
Youâre being very dumb . 2 months you dont even know him. Not really anyway sounds like things are going crazy fast . Dont get pregnant, finish school. Date for a WHILE before having a baby.
Whatâs his motive. I dated my husband for 6 months before we knew we wanted to get married. We then got pregnant with my first at 18. We are now 8 years married and thriving everyone moves at different times but for the sake of trying to get pregnant before you are financially stable means priorities are already not where they need to be. Which should raise many red flags and give you an idea on how your life will be with this person. You already know your answer but you are questioning your intuition. Finish school love, enjoy your journey and donât look back
Thereâs so many red flags
PLEASE FINISH SCHOOL. I was fooled into thinking I had âthe oneâ. We planned a pregnancy and then he took off. Itâs a lot harder to go to school with a baby⌠trust me. You have time to have children once youâre done. Let your kids be raised when your financially stable.
Yes, you are. Get on birth control like an IUD, Nexplanon or the injection that he cannot sabotage. Be careful, heâs trying to trap you.
Do not have a baby if you want a education and 2 months is not long enough to prove a long term relationship.Get a education and see if he is still around. Sign me Old Lady
Protect your self!!! Finish school first, education lasts but sadly relationships donât always. AND you need to be able to support babies. Hormones donât always last either, so make sure youâre covered just in case your Nellie or his Willie take a shine to someone else. Just sayingâŚ
My mom married my dad 2 weeks after meeting him in a bar and was with him till he died last year. My grandparents moved in after 3 days of being together got married with the month and had my aunt 9 months after that and are celebrating their 39th wedding anniversary this March. My grandmother once told me the longer you wait to see if your first feeling is true the more reason you have to tuck your tail and run. Stop living in a status of fear because you feel something will go wrong because you will make it go wrong. Listen to your heart and be happy.
Itâs only been 2 months. Slow down and really get to know him. Jumping on that train could lead you in the wrong direction leading you to possible regret.
Just waitdo your schooling first. Stop trying to rush with no secure future. Good luck
Stay with him and use birth control.If he loves you heâll support you thru medical school and wait for a baby.Huge red flags here
Going through school with a baby will be so hard. Doable but extremely hard. Nothing can compare to the feeling of sleep deprivation that a baby gives. Get through Med School and then have a baby. You have forever with the man so donât rush
Finish school, get on birth control and leave that dude. Heâs trying to trap you.
Personally, he is being selfish. And it doesnât sound like consent, to me.
Maybe marriage should be the first step and then a baby? That way if he does leave, you get your child support, considering you wanted to be realistic.
darling if he really was thinking of you, he would think about you finishing your education first and a baby way later.
Huge red flags for me. The fact that he is so adamant about getting you pregnant and that you wont break up?? Sounds like his intention is to make SURE you are bound to him. After two MONTHS?!! Holy hell, girl, no!!
Yâall donât even know each other so neither one of yâall can say if you will stay together. In the beginning theyâre supposed to appear to be the perfect one. But you donât even live with this guy so you have no idea how he is behind closed doors.
Donât get pregnant, but do go to school. You have plenty of time for babies. Why is he rushing you. Slow down, donât have unprotected.
do not TRY for a baby 2 months into a relationship.
