Single and pregnant

[myyarose]

I don't know how to get over the fact that I'm single while pregnant. The father has done nothing and does not call. He says he want to be there for the birth but I feel that he shouldnt due to he hasn't been there for me mentally or physically. Im 26 weeks pregnant with a baby girl. She is my pride and joy. Its just stresses me out that im doing it alone. Any advice please?

Thank you I appreciate that. I just try to find things to get my mind off of it. And your right he doesn't deserve to be there for birth. Best wishes to you. And thank you again

I've been single since I was 6 weeks pregnant. I'm now 34 weeks pregnant & the father of my unborn daughter says he wants to be there when I have her & that he wants to pick her name & that she should have his last name but in all honesty, I think that's wrong because I was pretty much by myself my whole pregnancy & still am. He never contacted me. He would make his other baby momma contact me & she would speak for him but I guess what I'm trying to say is that I don't think it's right for some guys to assume they get to be there when the baby's born & all that good stuff. I feel like that should be a privilege to them but they just see it as whatever. But I felt just like you did every once in a while but I had to be strong & make the right choice for me & my daughter. & being without him has really taken away alot of my stress. & I was able to have a somewhat calm pregnancy. & hopefully you can too (:

Thank you. I know I can do it on my own. I guess its just the part where I'm still hurt about it. But I do think it's best for him not to be there at all. He doesnt deserve that special moment at all

It could be worse, you could be in a relationship where you're not being treated right. It ***** that youre alone, but just remember you've made it this far yourself which means you can do it yourself. But I wouldn't let him be there for the birth. He wasn't there for you during the hard parts why should he get to enjoy the ready part. And if he shows up tell the Dr you don't want him there they will make him leave.
