Cas the father is a skadouche. She will learn. Pick better next time! It ain't hard to be on the pill..and wrappin the dick don't take talent...If you are a 'tard and can't get these to work? They make things you can insert in your 'trap' and keeps ya good for months or years. Not hard. As a guy...I would definitely NOT shown up...that is so awkward of a spot to be put into...

Giving the OP the benefit of the doubt and believing that the other person 'was' her friend: Labor is a pretty big deal. *Some* child births actually lead to death. No matter how small, there is a chance. Most people ..don't want to die alone or while surrounded by strangers. No matter how gross it would be, I would be there for my friend in her 'hour of need'. Wouldn't even have to be a best friend. It's the honorable thing to do. Even if I were a guy, I wouldn't place my fear of her expectations above my own integrity. @OP - I think you should distance yourself from him (and all other guys) and focus first on your child, then on yourself. Good luck.

Keep your legs closed or use BC. You wouldn't be in this position had you done one of the two. The baby is what only a day old and you're already whining? STFU you Moo. This is why parents suck they think everyone should drop everything for them. It's all me, me, me, me, me, me! I hope it was still born, last thing I want my tax dollars to go to is your kids pie hole.

If this FML is true, is it really hard for people here to believe that the real father isn't supportive, doesn't even know, or simply ran off? Can no one come to those conclusions? Either way, this girl is obviously too young to be having babies and not at the maturity level to be raising them. She should've kept her legs closed.

I'm with #3, that's what I thought.

Unless you have extenuating circumstances (such as the father having died or divorced you)... my sympathy is very, very limited. I'm sorry your mum wasn't there immediately, but, well, you can't really expect another guy to show up for a baby that isn't even his, no matter how close he is to you. That puts him in such an awkward position, and you KNOW the hospital staff would've assumed he was the father. Meh, tough luck. Next time, use contraception. For now, get used to being a mum.

apparently having sex is more important than being responsible. anyway, hope everything works out for you. you put yourself in a tough spot, but with some strength you'll be okay.

#3 how do you know how old this person is? i dont recall her mentioning her age. and where is this babys father!?

You really put him in a bad situation there. A lot of guys don't feel comfortable with the whole labor process, even if it were just in the waiting room, let alone being in the room. Being present at the labor is a huge deal, and often if you're invited to that you're expected to be in the kids life forever. If he replied 'I can't' and you just assumed he was watching TV and eating corn flakes, shame on you. Don't call the guy that you like (who probably knows), call the baby's father. Even if you don't have a relationship with him, he still played a role in that whole situation, and he has a right to be there. And if the father is gone for one reason or another, get his family in there. Even if its an estranged relationship they should know.

your a douche u dont expect ur friend to turn upto ur child birth! shud have asked the dad
