If you care to read about my baby daddy drama feel free to go to my profile and read my post. It's a disaster. Here is my advice though. It's probably not going to get better and you definitely don't want to give him any room to make it worse. If you have a baby involved then you have to make that baby your main concern. If he pulls it together and absolutely proves himself as a changed man then that's great. Until that happens though you have to be the one to provide stability for your baby. Give yourself and him some time and space for him to really get in his feet again. I know it *****. Believe me I know. And I know it's hard to make the break when you really love him. But at some point you just have to make the decision, as hard as it may be, to set some boundaries and put your baby first.

This is almost the ame story as with my ex,, they are unstable woe is me, manipulative, self indulgent narcissists.. Mine is causing me stress in whatever way he can .. He won't let me tell my friends (but tells my friends forme when it suits him) for fear of his ex finding out and taking custody of his sons.. He says it's jealousy but I don't believe she's jealous he just uses that to make me feel responsible for him .. I wish I'd seen through his rubbish sooner now I'm preg with his child having To decide how much I trust he will or won't be good to my child.. I like u didn't get to see my dad enough and  I'm v close to my dad.. But my dads kind from his heart genuine and wonderful :)  my ex doesn't share those qualities

I really do hope it works out for you.. And I'm not saying it can't happen and he can't change, but most likely it's not going to happen.. There will be good times and they are what will confuse you and cause you to stay longer.. The funny thing almost all abused people say whether it's mental or physical abuse is 'I stayed for my kids' people think it is better for the kids to have both parents in their children's life, but sadly that's not always the case. With an abusive parent, "and yes just from everything you've said about him he is an abusive person" it is often more damaging to the child for them to be in their life. You shouldn't shut him completely out, but he should be limited in what his role is. In the long run you'll be glad if thats what you do. I got married when I was 18 my husband was always crazy, but it wasn't ever directed at me.. We had our daughter when I was 22 and little by little it changes and everything will get worse. I stayed because I thought it was best for my daughter and anyways there was no physical abuse so what could be so bad about that? Ha there's plenty.. He was in her life everyday till she was 4 I couldn't do it anymore. I didnt love him I didn't hate him it was 100% pure ambivalence. I was pretty much emotionally dead inside, because that's what it eventually does to a person. With my daughter having him in her life constantly and then zero amount of her seeing him.. Was really hard and still is on her. She is more emotionally screwed up from watching his behavior throughout the years than I even realized at the time. If he can't be with me than he has no reason to be her father or so he says. I can fill a book with all the effed up stuff he has done and said. I eventually was pretty much forced to get an restraining order on him. and yes throughout the years he has done the begging n pleading and crying and wanting to change thing but to no avail. Is your baby's father witty and charismatic? Can be a really good people person and most people generally like him? Cus that's how most bipolar people are they are like two people.. I'm sorry this is so long I thought maybe it might help you to hear someone else's story.. The sad thing is my story I not unique there are tons n tons of people out there that can sing the same tune..

Hang in there girl seems all that drama is really between them.
You are having a baby with him, SEPARATE from her and their kids together.
Your baby deserves starting her life in a happy and positive environment.
You are the only one who can make that happen for your daughter:)
My son is also due in March. Babys daddys exwife started drama too. I put my foot down about him bringing their drama around me and my son and it has diminished considerably since.
Best of luck to you!

My bby daddy sounds just like yours the only reason he came back was because he is sacred to go to jail your mama called and that's wat made him come back.. she said she is going to call so he is going back.. I'm not sayin that he won't be a good father but a good man he is not.. don't be naive just cuz he dropped a few tears.. you well be in a never ending cycle.. think he didn't come back on his on he came back cuz he got a phone call from his p.o

You really need to just distance yourself from him. Like windyMae said, it sounds like immature drama. The last thing you need is a boy/man with possible mental issues adding extra stress, because being pregnant is already stressful enough. You just have to know limitations and when to stop adding fuel to the fire. I guess what I'm trying to say is that this relationship is not healthy for you or your child, and your child should now be your number one priority. So just about your baby and let this boy go!

i no all the things he has said nd everything but we are still trying to work it out... hes getting help! in the last week since everything he has stopped smoking and drinking and goin to church almoss everyday with his mom! nd i think that is a good start... hes not the type of person to cry.. the 3 ina half years ive known him ive never not once heard or seen him cry or get teary eyed about anything! even his grandma told me.. i honestly think he does want to be there nd wants to try... but like i said in past posts im hoping for the best but prepared for the worst...

just needed someone to talk to other then facebook where that will spread to everyone i know like crazy..

I've read a few of your posts and don't take this wrong, but it all just sounds like a bunch of ridiculous immature drama. You don't need any extra added stress in your life right now.. My advice to you is don't let yourself get sucked into any of it. The best thing for you would be to just ignore it all. And the father of your baby could definitely benefit from counseling from everything you've said about him in your posts it sounds like he is bi polar or something.. I was married to someone who is bi polar for 10yrs I understand how difficult it can be.. You somehow end up on their roller coaster and it's hell.. My advice save yourself and your child all the hurt and normalize the situation the best you can.. Good hun
