Anybody doing pregnancy alone?

Beside my bf I really have no one supporting my pregnancy. My mother has basically shunned me out her life since I told her I was pregnant and all I have is my bf and a few friends supporting me. Sometimes it gets lonely because I want support now and I will need help once my baby girl is here, but I don't think I will get that. Also I want my mother there when I go into labor but I know she won't. I'm only 19 and a ftm. Can anybody else relate?

I'm going alone for the most part.  My family is around but not supportive.  My boyfriend is very emotionally supportive but he's far away for now.  It's been rough... I depend on message boards a lot because my close friends don't have kids and don't know what I'm going through.

My family comes n goes. My bf is supportive with a roof over my head but emotionally he could care less. When.I'm  sphyicaly hurting, he continues to play playstation or watch tv.

I can't imagine what that must be like, but please understand that you have the support of all the women here! I really hope your mom comes around. Best wishes as we get to the last few weeks!
