Single and Preggo with my fifth baby

Hey you guys...I am posting basically to vent a little. I am pregnant with my fifith child, and i just left my fiance July 2011 because he is a cheater and a liar and i couldnt take it anymore. I found out i was pregnant after i left him, which is not my biggest problem financially because i am well off, work fulltime, but I'm in school fulltime to get my RN, BSN, my biggest problem will be support i am so use to him being there for that and nothing else. After i have my baby i will have to switch to a night job, come home in the AM get the kids ready for school at my mother house cause they will have to stay with her during the night, get some sleep with my new born, then some classes in the afternoons before my kids get out of school. It will be a lot but i will have to manage because i refuse to go back to him he has hurt me more than once. Are there any woman out there that is having the same problems??

CONGRATULATIONS, and may God bless you hun. Idk you but this just brought tears to my eyes, maybe because I'm an emotional mess. But I commend you for being so independent. I'm a very religious person, but this touched me spiritually. God has so many great things in store for you!

It's okay to lean on family during times like this. What you're doing is putting yourself in a position so that you can stand on your own feet and not lean on them later, and maybe even be the one they can lean on when they need it. Besides, if they're anything like my family or even my ex's family, they're begging for time with the munchkin(s). :)

Congrats on the pregnancy and sorry that he did that too you.  You seem like a very strong woman and I really do think you can do this on your own.  Good luck with nursing school.  I know how hard and trying that can be in itself without children.  I've been there and done that.  It will all be worth it in the end though.  Hoping you have a happy and healthy pregnancy.

My friend had twins that are now 3 years old and one has DS. The baby daddy has never been there. She is going to school to get an Associates degree while working full time. Luckily she has a really supportive sister and mom. Do you have any close family members to lean on?
