no explanation...

Hey ladies..a little advice & comfort needed. Before I got pregnant the guy I was with and have been with for 4 years now decided we wanted to have a baby together. More him than me actually... In a nutshell when I found out he was excited at first and then dropped off the face of the earth in a blink of an eye. I'm not sure why but throughout my first trimester I was severely heartbroken and feeling really abandoned. I've spoken to him twice and I am now 14 weeks. I have no explanation for his actions but I'm very hurt by all of this. He has seemed to have moved on and forgotten all about me. I'm doing a lot better now but it still pricks at me every once in a while. Idk what to do anymore other than focus on me and the baby. It ***** that it has ended this way and he seems to want no part of my life or this child's :( what to do what to do...

It is his loss and that's the sad thing about it! Honestly I'm more embarrassed that I choose him to be the father of my child more than anything. Thank you for your positive words. I will be a great mother :)

That's his loss you did nothing wrong just raise your child the best you can and let him remain where he is. If he disappeared treat him like a ghost very invisible don't stress yourself over the what ifs and things like that.  Be a good mother to your baby. Eventually he will try to wiggle his way back in your life but I couldn't allow myself to be with him because he just left when you needed him most. You are strong and you got this mama:)

I was hurt for along time too. Who knows why men do what they do but him being a great father now im completely over it. I had so many plans as to how I thought the pregnancy was gon be but I learned my lesson never plan anything. Just focus on baby everything is going to work out.

I'm not so stressed anymore.. I guess I'm still in wonder why he did this to me. All I ever did was love him. Thanks for the replies. It means a lot for a listening ear and feedback ♥

Honey don't stress urself. Me and my husband went thru the same thing. We were together 4 years and wanted a child together since the beginning. Long story start he left me when I was about 12 weeks. I was devastated and stressed out I could not get over it cuz we never was apart. Anyway for unknown reasons I ended up going in 10 weeks early another stress added. Fast forward almost 3 years later we got it together got married when our son was about 4 months and he is the best dad ever. Now im on baby #2 with him although we are separated he supports me during this pregnancy and gets his son 4 days out the week to give me breaks. We just can't get along when im pregnant but im completely happy 6 weeks left and I can't wait to meet my prince.
