    If it was me, I would not tell the father, I would wait until baby is born, and then tell him. Hope it works out

    I'm kind of going through the same thing. If you think the father being at the hospital would bring you down or stress you out, don't tell him. Or if you tell him and he doesn't show up, you will probably be feeling sad when you should be feeling nothing but happy! Do what you think is best, I think he doesn't deserve to be at the hospital! Good luck!

    To me, if he hasnt contacted you in 3 months, and he knew about the pregnancy, then he doesnt want much to do with the new baby. Im sorry youre having to deal with this, but i honestly would just call and ask him if he still wants to experience parenthood with you and help you care for the baby. If not, then if you dont have anyone else to help, i would suggest food stamps and other helpful things you can get to buy things for the baby and yourself.

    no contact for three months sounds like he don't want to know about you or the baby but i guess the right thing to do is let him know when your going in at least when he don't show up you will know exactly where you stand with him instead of hanging onto any false hopes

    good luck with the delivery and i hope your family give you all the support you will need

    Well 1 part of my is shouting no don't tell the waste of space but the other part of me is shouting yes its the right thing to do.

    So I would let him no then you will have a clear concious you done yor part the rest is down to him u

    Yeah I would tell him what's going on but you don't have to let him in the delivery room with you. If he doesn't come then its his loss. At least you will know he had the option to come if he wanted to.

    What do you think is going to be best for you and your baby, you are going to be the one caring what do you want?
