Would you date someone who is pregnant?

I would not date a pregnant woman or a single mother.
That is just me.
I want to build a life with a woman from the ground up,
and I wouldn't want to have to go into an already complicated
situation.

Would you date someone that was going through drastic daily mental changes in their life? The reason I ask this is because your body and hormone levels are changing everyday. If you start dating someone now they wont be seeing the true person inside untill at least a month or so after the pregnancy.

I will agree with you justmeandmax that my body and hormones are changing everyday and as I can only speak for myself but I would not consider them DRASTIC MENTAL CHANGES!. I am pregnant, not a psycho with her head rolling and mentally challenged hahaha.. That is a bit over an over reaction don't you think. The problem I find is that others are quick to pass judgment of pregnant women but will not take the time to find out one way or the other. We are all individuals and we all handle things differently but as for me, I am as cool as a cucumber and enjoying every moment the best that I can.. If somone DID start seeing me, they WILL be seeing the true me.. My friends will agree so to answer your question.. I disagree on these terms... Yes, I work, Take care of my other child, pay off my new car, pay all my bills and am expecting another so there may be days when the pressure can get high but it has NOTHING to do with the plain fact that I am pregnant. It's called life and there are actually some people out there that handle it realistically and calmly...

I do feel sorry for those who have experienced radical pregnant women but not all are like that I promise you!

I wasn't trying to imply that you were psycho. I was just saying that you are going through alot of changes right now and IMO it would not be a good time to start a relationship because hormones can effect a person mentally. (male and female) What I'm saying is hormone imbalance can cause many different effects all the way from feelings of euphoria to the other extreme of depression. It has been my experience that most pregnant women slide back and forth from the set point of who they are to begin with, and SOME go to the extreme ends of the scale. So again, I'm not saying your psycho, just saying you going through alot of physiological changes that could possibly effect your thinking in choosing a mate.

Congrats and good luck. Keep us posted as to when the baby comes.

Me, Personally as a woman, I would look at a woman that is dating someone else while being pregnant Sleazy. Not only, because your emotions are bouncing, But that is way to soon to get back into a relationship. It takes 9 months to bring the baby to full term. I would instead use that time to heal from a painful situation, take stock, and figure out what I was going to do. Not be thinking about another relationship. Iwould also be aware of how much my emotions would be in an imbalance at this time. I am not sure I would trust my judgement. Why jump from pan into the fire?

Absolutly, would have done so when i was a lot younger to. Takes a lot of pressure of a guy and the woman of course as the relationship becomes deeper as they prepare themselves for what is ahead.

This question pops up rather frequently and I'm always amazed that it's even asked.

"Why would a guy want to date a woman who's pregnant?" is the question that should be asked, or even, "Why is a pregnant woman looking to date anyone?" would even fit better.

I just don't get it from either POV.

No I would not, I don't feel I would like to be with a single parent either.

If we met as friends only that would be great.

i so have to agreei am 7 months pregnant. Now the guy i am pregnant by we wernt boyfriend and girlfriend but friends who were sleeping together for 2 years i end up pregnant. I tell him and im the bad person. Now i dont regret my daughter at all.. Do i wish it would have waited YES.. do i wish with someone else YES.. I cant change what happened.. But MEN take care of the responsibilitys BOYS Run no matter the age of 23 yrs old. Im happy to say i am going to be a single mother to a wonderful little girl. would i date while ive been pregnant.. I did.. we dated up till spetember 4th when he depolyed to iraq. he is a great friend who cant wait to meet my daughter when he comes home.. A great man who stuck by me when i foundout i was pregnant for we started dating before i found out i was pregnant... i was already 6 weeks pregnant when i found out and he was there with me. Came to shock since 3 different specli doctors told me id nevr carrie a child. Dating someone whilepregnant id say i dont think i would do it again ... No... to much of emotions flying and things go through ur head ud never honest to god think when u arnt pregnant. Lord i dated him for 5 or so more months and we NEVER had sex.. I Cant bring myself to even change in front of him.. for it thought i was wrong to let another man see me naked.

^^^^^^^ I think this is more of a confidance issue rather than whether you would or wouldn't date whilst pregnant. You obviously had a great experience by meeting an open minded and big hearted man whom took you for who you are and didnt judge you or your situation.. Why would this change whether you would date whilst pregnant or not? This man obviously accepted you with your emotions flying and with all the things going on in your head??? Seems to me that you are blessed to have both a baby and a great man in your life. Hormones and all!!!

I would date a pregnant woman, but I would never date a man while pregnant again! I dated an ex while pregnant with another "man's" baby, he made all kinds of drama I didnt need while planning for my first child. He pressured me about sex a week after I had my daughter and wanted to start trying for his "own" kid. (Yet he started fights if I called my daughter mine not ours) ect, ect, ect... I broke up with him when my daughter was two weeks old... I guess my view is very mixed, My parents met while my mom was pregnant with another mans baby, so I'm glad some men do date pregnant woman or else my brother and I wouldnt be here! Well I guess I'd just wish all you the luck!

my friend on the phone is a pretty descent guy he has never been married but his reply to this question is that if it was his he would date you if you were pregnant.....or you would have to get to know someone the final answer would be that u have to get to know someone and thier situation and that would determine if it dating was an option.

Hell no NEVER ever never ever to the power of never

Imagine the consequences if your ass is stuck in the loco parentis shit then oh boy, you are doomed --- even if the relationship does not work out -- One guaranteed risk -- you will be stuck with an 18-year old lease legally bind Or go to jail..You are not too stupid to make that decision..aren't you? And if you can use half of your brain, this decision should be an easy one!!! If you still cannot make a decision, give up already..there are much harder decisions in life than this simple one...

If I were a guy...HELL no.

Drama

No need for it!!!
==========================================================
You are too right and really logical..That is what I am talking about being logical, ethical and upright..
Not one single motherf*cker would f*cking want to live with this drama shit and clean up the shit that another man left.....If he gets to taste the goods, he should keep the goods ... Otherwise, the goods are damaged or used...

Prim and Proper: Parkerkimm has a point (even if his language could be a bit better and he could be more polite.) In Canada and in some parts of the USA a step-parent has to pay support for the step child, so you do need to be cauitous if someone decides to date a pregnant woman, which is why some men will not date a pregnant woman or a single mother.

HeyPrimandProper

My ass ain't drunk -- i was in my full senses when I wrote the statement I made and I am sure the majority of decent men will side with me to a greater degree of perception.
Baby Cost expensive - Diapers and all the supplements for an offspring that is is not even yours...Makes no sense to me.
I contribute a good point but you did not understand because you are too smart I could guess wrong but I guess Your real life situation somewhat depicts a different picture.
Heck, not even counting the drama that comes free with such a relationship, not worth a hair of a damn.
Sorry to be so direct but at least, I am upfront!!

Ok, I apologise.. I think thats the difference between people from USA and OZ.... I couldnt understand the lingos... Let alone where all of that was coming from. Here in Oz, our laws a different when it comes to children and custody etc.. so I guess thats why people from the USA (especially the men) are so passionate about being ripped off and having to support someone elses child. I even will agree with you there from what I have been learning that your laws suck!!

Your entitled to your point and I accept that but once again, not all women are personally out looking for hand outs and someone to look after them and their child/ren. Takes an open mind to try to get to know the trash from the treasure I guess.. These little trials and tribulations can happen to both single and those in a relationship so why single out the singles????

Thanks for clearing that up anyways...

This same discussion is taking place in a few groups. There are a lot of people that think self respecting men should stay away from pregnant women.

I do think that most people confuse "dating" and "relationship". I wouldn't have a problem dating a pregnant woman. I don't see any reason to limit myself just because the woman is pregnant. I could miss out on my soul mate (cue violin music in the background).

I'm not naive, I know the risk for problems are there but that is why not every guy can or would do it. If you meet the right guy, it may just work out well.

I think pregnant women have enough on their plate.
I was a single pregnant woman at one point and the LAST thing on my mind was trying to start a new relationship.

This is a time in a womans life where she should focus on herself, her baby and the future....NOT MEN

If you are pregnant and feel the need to date, you are probably co-dependant
