Any other single mommies?

[amyc08]

I'm currently in a single mom situation and am 22 weeks pregnant. Things can be pretty difficult and I'm trying to do my best to get by and be happy. If you're in an similar situation, how b have you found comfort and strength? Thanks... I don't really have anyone b physically around me in a similar situation to commiserate with.

Well thanks everyone for your input. This will be my first baby so I'm trying to not let this ******* ruin any more things in my life than he already has. Staying strong, praying, trying not to be bitter. Maybe one day I'll have a pregnancy where the father is involved and helpful.

I think that it is important to always remember your worth as a woman.  As women we try so hard to please these little boys- because they are far from men, that we neglect ourselves and allow them to make us feel undeserving of love.  I personally think that they should be glad that someone wants to love them with their little musty balls (not literally) but you catch my drift.  But I hate to be honest with you -but you have to stop blaming the other woman and realize that he's not being manipulated. He is just being a dog that has made his choice while still trying to manipulate you and play on your insecurities.  We can't go around trying to keep someone who doesn't want to be kept.  Know your worth.  Live life.  Laugh hard. Stay prayed up.  And forget him. Dont let your blessing pass u by because you are hung up on this jerk and what he  did to you. It's good that you and his family can be sociable but you may want to limit that relationship as well because it's just another way of holding on to him and something that isn't meant for you.

i wish we could have a little forum for single mums..because i love hearing others experiences..on my low days it helps to hear you arent the only one on your own..im 25 weeks and already have a daughter who is 7..ive been alone for just over 7 and a half years with her and sadly on my own again.. ive been rock bottom and ive been on top of the world..i love my daughter so much..shes my motivation for everything and no matter how tired, weary and lonely (and bitter) sometimes you can feel..u can do it :) the bond i have with my little girl is amazing..were lucky in a way that we get to be extra specially close to our little ones..just try to always focus on the positive..i also think dwelling on exs can mske you bitter and twisted and its not healthy..took my years to learn that (handled my divorce badly) but letting go is the best way to be happy

my fiancé and I lost our son at 16wks last September and had been actively trying for another baby. Finally Jan 4th I got my positive test, and Jan 10th he told me I need to move out so his ex and kid can move back in. He took my ring back, etc. I'm heartbroken, and SO scared to go through this, and possibly deal with another loss by myself.
He's made it very clear he will resent this baby even though it was 4 months it took to happen and was PLANNED.
I'm currently looking to move for March 1st. I've been trying to change his mind, but she seems to be manipulating him. And even his unborn baby cant change that. We were having no issues at all til this, he's been saying some pretty hurtful sh*t to me, which in turn makes it a lot easier to realize I don't need this "man" in my life.
I'm 27yrs old with a 5yr old daughter and have NO EFFING CLUE how im going to do this on my own. But his parents are supportive of ME and basically disowned him because they don't agree with what he's done/doing to a beautiful family.
I feel for you. I miss his kisses, and hugs, and the way he use to look at me. But knowing he can just drop me, my child and a child we BOTH wanted SO badly, makes me SO ANGRY!

I left my hubby went I was 2 months pregnant. All you have to do is look forward be positive and stay strong for the baby. I had my baby 1 week ago he's in the picture just helping me with the baby. Am scared to be a single parent but I have to be strong for my son. I know it's hard but we could do it :)

Well I don't know if this will help but I can shed a little light on my situation and I how I deal since we are currently not on speaking terms.  I focus on the reality - which is I am about to be blessed with a beautiful little girl that I have to do whatever I have to do inorder to make sure she is provided for and love. I also take care of my health and pamper myself as much as possible. I also focus more on my spirtuality because for me that is the true source of love, peace, and happiness.
