Today, the father of my unborn child got laid off. Without a work visa, he may have to leave the country before this baby even arrives. FML
900104878 tells us more.
Hey OP here. I guess I should clarify some things. Birth control was used, as like every other time. It happened to fail. We were together a few months and a few more after we found out. I don't believe in staying with someone solely because of a child. It's not healthy for anyone. We get along fine and he's excited to be a dad. Absolutely not great timing of course. But I do not believe in abortion. I didn't post this because I'm worried about money. I have a good full time job that I will return to after my mat leave. My heart hurts for him, not me. I've got my family here, I'll be ok. Thank you for the support!!

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Marry him? Is that not an option?

I'm so sorry this is happening when it's supposed to be such a happy time. Hopefully he can work something out at the embassy to give him a temporary visa? Or maybe he can find a new job?

No he won't. He is the dad and he will sadly be able to stay her thanks to the Obama administration ??

Sounds like you got a good head on your shoulders OP. Hopefully he will be able to come back to visit your new baby (if he is unable to stay). On another note, congratulations!

Just get married to him then he can stay and once he is all sorted out then you could get a divorce. I mean it's not like its a complete stranger you will be doing this for its your childs father he will be in your life no matter what so might as well do that for your kid to have a father in its life instead of foreign country

Reason #36393 it's a bad idea to have sex with anyone you wouldn't want to have a baby with.

Think about having a family together nonetheless, magical things happen and love and family are far more important than countries and money
