I am 24 years old, from California, and I've been in a relationship with 23 year old Jessica for 8 months. We met through a mutual friend and I never thought that she'd be into me until the mutual friend told me she had a crush on me. We got together and I knew she was my dream girl ever since the first date. I love her so much, and after a bit of a rocky patch last month (which we sorted out) we're really happy. <br><br>But yesterday my world got turned upside down. About a week ago, I got a minor injury on my leg so I went to the doctor. Everything was fine, but as I was about to leave the doctor asked me if I was feeling OK, because he was a bit worried that I might be dehydrated or malnourished. I told him I was fine, and that it's probably because I was too stressed with work lately. Then I joked "you're not gonna tell me that I have cancer or something?" And he said that I should take a seat, because there was something important he wanted to talk to me about. I asked him what it was, but he said that he wanted to do some background checks before he was able to make sure of anything. I was like "background checks??? what the fuck??". And then he proceeded to do an ultrasound and an urology exam on me. I was like wtf, I don't understand what's happening. <br><br>After he finished the exam and everything he finally told me that I was pregnant. I swear to god I went insane. Half of me wanted to laugh at the absurdity of everything, the other half was crying like a baby. I asked him if he was being serious, because this conversation feels like something out of a bad sitcom. And he showed me the ultrasound, which was the moment in which I completely lost it. I saw the bean, and it was as big as the five month ones that I've seen before. I freaked out and I told him that this was impossible, because I'm a guy, I'm 100% sure of it. He told me that this wasn't unheard of, even though it was extremely rare. He showed me a conversation he had with a specialist and they both agreed that I needed to take a pregnancy test to confirm everything. <br><br>I took a pregnancy test and it was positive. I didn't even know what to say. I called Jessica and told her I was coming home, but it took me 3 hours to get back because I was crying like a baby and I couldn't drive. She asked me what happened and I told her I was pregnant. We went to the hospital together and they confirmed the news. They told us that the baby was healthy, but I might need to take some time off work because of the complications. <br><br>As far as we know, I'm 7 months pregnant, we're not entirely sure of how far along I am, but the doctor said it was probably around 160-170 days. Which is fucking crazy. <br><br>I feel dehydrated and tired all the time, and everything feels harder than usual. I get dizzy spells often. I haven't gained much weight, so it's pretty much impossible to tell that I'm pregnant or not. <br><br>I told my parents yesterday, and they completely freaked out. My mom cried and my dad told me that it was impossible, that Jesus was coming back to earth or something. They both demanded that we get an abortion, but it's too late for me to get one where I live. <br><br>I haven't told anyone else yet, and I don't know how to tell my friends. This is crazy. <br><br>I'm so confused, I don't know if I should be happy, sad, or scared. I just know that this is the most unexpected thing that ever happened to me, and I'm not sure how to deal with it. <br><br>So men, how would you feel if you found out you were going to be a dad?<br><br>Update: I just want to clear up a few things: <br><br>- I am 100% sure I am biologically male, I'm not sure how many times I need to say it for people to not question it lol<br><br>- I know that it's impossible for a man to get pregnant. I'm not saying that it isn't, I'm just sharing my story.<br><br>- I've been told that I need to get my uterus checked out because it's probably inflamed or something, so I'll be talking to a specialist in the next couple of days.<br><br>- The doctors are not really sure how the baby is surviving, they think that I might have a condition that they haven't been able to diagnose so far.<br><br>- I know that it's impossible for a man to be 7 months pregnant, but it's what the doctors are telling me, and I trust them. <br><br>- I will keep you guys updated, thank you so much for caring and for the kindest replies, I didn't expect so many people to respond to this.
