Pregnancy Just Plain Scares Me

Submitted by jgarcia307
I know it's probably just my emotions doing the talking, but here's the situation. I'm fixing to turn 24, have been dating the same guy for a year and a half and love him with everything that I am. Granted, we have our problems and fights like most couples, but I never had to factor another person into the equation. I just found out that I'm almost 10 weeks pregnant and can't seem to wrap my mind around the idea.
My parents, while trying to be supportive, don't want us living at the house anymore. So while before I didn't have much to worry about, now I have to worry about finding a place to live and having enough money to raise a baby.

On top of this, the father of my unborn child works in Shreveport, Louisiana, for four days out of the week and we live in Houston, Texas. I'm so worried about being a new mom on my own.

And another thing is that before this situation, my boyfriend and I both loved going out, having drinks with friends and just having the time of our lives. While I realize all of that is going to come to a screeching halt, I don't know if he's quite aware of this and don't know how to make him realize the complete turnaround our lives are fixing to take. I need any kind of advice, shoulder to lean on, "been there, done that" response that I can get.

Like I said, I go through some days where I'm excited and others where all I do is worry and want to cry. Help!
