Help!
I am three months pregnant and my boyfriend of three years moved out this weekend while I was out of state visiting my dad. He doesn't want this baby- so he left. I am so lost and feel hopeless. How do I get through this? Do I even want to?

I have never had this happen to me before so I can't really give you much advice but I can try to give you support. Many single women raise children alone everyday...And do a great job doing it!! You'll be fine just lean on .God, friends, and family. I can't believe you two were together for so long and he just left you! I think that you are awesome for doing what you felt was right in keeping your baby even though he didn't want it. Maybe this guy of yours just needed time to think (not to defend him or anything) and he will come back when he's ready. I don't know... Maybe you and your baby are better off without him!! Ahhhh what a jerk!! Makes me mad!! Look, you'll make it...We are all here for you. Go to the preggy forum as well (if you haven't already been)!!

Good luck and .God bless,

Hi
I don't know your beliefs, but I want to encourge you to keep this child. The baby should not suffer for the irresponsibility of his father. He possibly does need time to think, but do you really want to be in a relationship with someone who has to leave to "think" every time something inconvienences him? I have a feeling it took this baby to expose the guy for who he really is. You deserve far better, and so does your child. It's hard for me to comprehend the level of selfishness someone must have to abandon you in a time like this. In a healthy relationship, you don't just give 50/50, you give 100% of yourself to the other person, and this guy obviously is not. Don't let him do this to you again, there are too many "good" guys out there.

If you need encouragement, feel free to email me

I won't tell you that it's easy but I could tell you that the baby within you is worth it, remember the saying a mother is one, and a father could be anyone.




God has blessed you within so be the best you can be and thats both.





Mother & father

u could teach this child anything and everything you don't need a man to raise a child, it help but you don't need.....




I have a fatherless child and with in 4yrs I think I did a good ass job....



I also have a 15 yr old daughter.
