I am Pregnant with his child, he promised to quit drinking but didn't, should I leave?

"I love him very much and the only problem we have is this drinking issue."

Reminds me of a girl I nearly dated. She was perfect but for the junkie bit.

You know what I'm going to say, and you know what you need to do. I'll only add that you need to be careful about his relationship with the kid. Every kid deserves a dad, but no kid deserves a drunk. It's going to be tricky, and it's more work than you deserve, but I suspect you'll be a good enough mom to get it right.

I'm sorry. I wish you the best.

you and me should talk. I'm 9 months pregnant (due in 3 weeks!) and I have an alcoholic boyfriend too. he sounds exactly like yours. I also gave him many, many chances. my boyfriend was in and out of jail throughout my pregnancy and it killed me! now he's in rehab and will be out in 30 days. (he's been there 60 days already). I'm giving him 1 more chance, because he sounds and looks a lot better since he's been in treatment. but he knows the deal: one more time in jail or anymore drinking and me and him are through.

I have a couple of questions, is he putting you and your childs' life at risk when he is drunk? Does he just drink once every 2 weeks or is it consecutive days every 2 weeks?
I have to tell you, drinking is one of the hardest drug of choice to give up, especially during a detox phase.
He has to really want to stop drinking. Its easy to make a bunch of promises, depending on his comsumption and addiction to alcohol.
If he is really serious about wanting to stop drinking, you should look into more resources other than AA. AA may have those resources on how to quit drinking. But maybe a specialist. But AA is a support group that on your process on sobriety. But if he is uncomfortable going by himself, you could also go with him as a support system. If there aren't any resources that you can find in your area, I'm sure there is an individual at the AA meeting who can suggest some.
But if he doesn't want to change, you can't make or force him, I'm sure you know that. If it is getting to point where you can't handle it anymore and may be unhealthy/unsafe then maybe it will be a good idea for you to leave. It might be a wake-up call for him that he does need clean up.
Hope this helped :-)

with your situation its about the baby. no child wants a father that drinks or a family that is separated before he/she is even born. you are very young, and I would suggest putting the baby up for adoption, this way he/she gets a loving family that will take care of him/her. once you are married and in the position (both you AND the father, your boyfriend obviously isn't ready) to have a baby, then you should go for it.

i know its a hard decision, but at least think about it. I have an adopted cousin and thanks to the hard but right decision his mother and father made, he is living a happy life with my aunt and uncle.

i hope this helps. plz message me if you have another question

First off there's a reason that the first step of AA is admitting you have a problem. He can't even do that. Addicts do not better their ways for someone else. Addiction is a sickness and until he truly wants to change his ways (for himself and no one else) he will not be able to succeed. He's a great guy except for his drinking problem? That problem is HUGE and can snowball overtime. Your baby doesn't deserve that. What if he's home alone watching the baby and gets drunk and the baby has a medical emergency? He can't drive anywhere. It's just too risky. Your baby is priority over you and your boyfriend. Take care of that priority.

ok look at ur options
1) let ur baby grow up with a f***ed up dad
2) let ur baby grow up without a dad
3) show him you mean it then wen the baby pops out show up and say look what you could've had but you had to drink so stop or u'll never gett to c it.

good luck! btw if you comment plez tell what the baby is(boy girl). I LOVE BABIES! :D

i think you pretty much answered the questions yourself. you should just leave him. because he's lying to you and if it continues you just would want a better life for the baby and for you.

but really its your decision
