It's instinct. You'll do fine and you'll be a wonderful father. If you have questions feel free to come around here. :) good luck!

Josh, you are a wonderful young man for taking responsibility for your actions. As a teen mother, it makes all the difference when there is adequate support. She is going to go through a lot of different emotions once the baby is born and so will you. A baby adds stress to a life that you never dreamed of. It's worth it, I promise. I wasn't able to go to college after high school. I had been accepted into pre-med at penn state and found out the weekend I graduated from high school that I was pregnant. I married my baby's father and we ended up having another child four years later. After seven years in a relationship that never should have gone that far, we divorced. It was messy. The battle for our children was even messier. Eventually, I went back to school. I am a surgeon's assistant and have enrolled in law school. I am 28 now with a 10 year old and a 5 1/2 year old. I won't sugar coat it. It is going to be very difficult, but from what I can tell from your posting, you're up for it. Just be good to her and love that baby. The rest will come naturally.
