Custody

Well Im only 9week prego but i like to prepare myself for stuff.. So right now im not working i went to school and graduated and im looking for a job in my feild. If i dont find one by next week im looking for a regular job. And my bf works full time in a nursing home.. I really dont want him taking custody of our baby . Id be so devestated . I live at home and have support of my family. Would he be able to take custody? And he has a history with getting his licence suspended idk if that helps

It is indeed very true that the hardest things for anyone to do, the courts, the fathers, anyone or anything, is to take a child away from their mother. You should be just fine(: keep looking forward to your own future because we as mommies are the foundation of our children in every way(:

I understand fully! I would just tell him u want to be more stable before u move in together! It sounds like he just wants to be a family! We now have our daughter back after fighting for 3 years but we have her back and everything is great! U are gonna be a great mother, u sound like u have a very good head on ur shoulders! U will be fine! U will do what u need to do to make sure ur baby is taken care of!

Not a problem! I have been there so I know how stressful it is! I even lost custody of my little grl in my divorce to my ex husband ( even though he isn't her dad) do to me and her real dad moving in together! So its all real tricky but as long as u keep ur nose clean and keep a clean house and everything for ur baby u should be fine! Did he already say he was gonna take the baby from u?

Ok thanks so much.. They actually have a person who rents from them who deals and smokes weed. And they have alot of ppl living in there house. And i do have a seperate room for the baby which is great.. I will get any job just to support my little one.. Thanks for the advise

The only way they could take the baby from u is to prove u unfit! If he has a steady job and a home of his own then they could try, but as long as u have a home for ur baby and u have a room for ur baby of its own then as long as its not a drug house or tons of people in and out all the time they won't say much! But deff try to find a job even if it is a md flipping burgers! As long as u can support ur self and the baby everything should be ok! Good luck
