You made the right choice! You're already a great mama to this baby just by making the couragious choice to leave an abusive situation. This is best for you and your child now and in the long run.  I am 15 weeks pregnant and I am doing this without the father's support. I'm blessed to have an amazing family and friends by my side, but I do wish sometimes that I had that special man by my side.  Even through my lonely moments I know that I'm doing what is best for my child and I find strength in that. I pray that you find the same!

I agree that you did the right thing. It will be hard, I raised my first child alone. Make sure to utilize ALL the services available to you, that definitely helps! I hope you have some family or friends near you just for that support, if not then definitely make sure to call them when you need someone to talk to. I agree with sprmom87 too, counseling may be good, especially with how much you have been through. Good luck momma, your in my prayers!

Leaving is hard and so is raising a child, but there is tons of assistance out there for you, and I found that counseling was a great help as well. I wish you the best!

Dont be afraid to do it "alone". Its better than being with someone abusive who will most likely be abusive with your baby as well. So many women do it alone and nothing is wrong with that. Good luck

Don't ever be afraid of going through it alone. You did the hardest and bravest thing thing you could for yourself and your precious gift and that was to leave. I was in a very abusive relationship with my first child and with this one the father disappeared so trust me you can do it!  The best of luck =)

You did the right thing. You'll do better without him. There's no excuse for him kicking a pregnant woman no matter how mad he was. And trust me it won't get any better once he's reached that point. Good luck and keep positive.
