You don't provide any details on your own position, on ages, on schooling , on position in life, on the religious angle involved, etc.
Don't you think the first thing to do is "stand" next to your girlfriend ?
Have you spoken about this with her in a serious way?
Just some points of consideration :
- Are you sure you love your girlfriend all the way?
- Do you consider some stable form of relation now?
- What about your and her parents, and their relationship?
- Can both of you afford a child at this moment?
- What about housing, costs of pregnancy and delivery?
- Any alternatives if you can't afford a child at this moment?
- Are you willing to give the child your name (to "father" it) ?

And a big cigar for you !

Has she been to the Dr yet? If not, go with her, hold her hand and support her. As Credendovidis mentioned we really do not know much about your situation, until you tell us. Congrats on the baby!

Great information above^

Please make sure she's on prenatal vitamins, they're vital to baby's health. Also, feel free to add specific information you may need. There is help out there and we can probably help you find it.
