Pre-Marital cohabitation is probably the worst misconceptions of our current culture.
The whole theory goes: if things work out, then good, if not, I'm gonna bail. That has NOTHING to do with what marriage is supposed to be. That is the opposite of marriage.

Why do I bring up divorce in a thread about a guy discussing marrying a girl he's been dating for a little over a year and has recently impregnated accidentally?
Um, because it's pretty relevant when discussing marriage, regardless of the context.
Divorce doesn't hurt a child but a break up does? They are one in the same.
I agree with you about the pre-marital cohabitation, and didn't move in with my wife until we were engaged. Having a child is a bit different though, and pretty much calls for the mother and father living together if they can.
