being alone and pregnant

Has anyone else been alone and pregnant? How do you get through it? How do you enjoy your pregnancy when all you wanna do is break down and cry?

Well, I can't say I'm alone, however, my mom had 2 marriages and both men were crap. My oldest brother, whom has a different father than myself, is one of the best people in the world and I'm not just saying that bc he's my brother. Had his father stuck around,  who knows what would've happened.  My mom was heart broken at the fact that 2 marriages had failed and she was left alone, but we were better off without them. My mom is my best friend. I can't stand my Dad and believe it or not, I thank God everyday for giving me only 1 parent and she does too now. It is a true blessing the way things worked out the way they did. I'm not sure how your relationship is with God or what your religious beliefs are, but if you do own a bible I would encourage you to read Isaiah 38:5. Why does God allow hurt, pain and heartache. God knows what's best, he always knows what he's doing. Good luck to you sweetheart and I will pray for you.

With my first i was a single mom. I was single from when I told him i was pregnant. I cried maybe for a month. But then I was like, well I guess it's you and me kid. And i just had to stop crying because being sad and depressed wasn't an option anymore. I haven't seen her father in over 11yrs. My daughter is 11yrs old. And I'm now happily married to another, and expecting baby number 2.
I think of how it would be like if he dad was in the picture and I don't think she would be as smart as she is, or how her personality is.
We have our ups and down of course and life was hard at first but it gets easier as they get older. I never told her anything bad about her dad. Just that he left me when I was pregnant.  And that if she ever wants to meet him I'll find him.
But she hasn't showed any interest in that. You just need to look at the bright side,  not all families have a mom and dad. And sometimes it only takes one parent to raise a great kid.

I'm going to though the same exact thing with my boyfriend he just told me Friday that he's getting back with his ex he's working things out with her and she knows that I'm pregnant with his child but now he's denying my baby no our baby now that he's back with her I'm not upset about the whole ex girlfriend thing I'm more upset about him denying our child thats what kills me everyday I cry and I know it's not healthy for my child but I know God has something greater for me and my baby. #single parent rock

yea I don't to much hear from him at all and when he decides to it aggravates me because I know he really dont care to much about my baby.. the girl he with don't think this is his child so atleast hes acknowledges that you are prego sometimes you just have to iqnore him stop answering his phone calls because we will never get ourselfs together . it's like 1 min we cool about it but as soon as we hear they voice we ryte back in the same boat

Yeah thats exactly what hes doing. Hes in a relationship already and texts me randomly saying how are u feeling i say fine he goes thats great and thats it. I dont get how another women can be okay with him having a pregnant ex gf must be something seriously wrong with her.

well momma it took me a while to learn how to get through it but i just got to thinking that at the end of the day these are our babies and we have to deal with it .. a man can walk at any given time go be in a relationship with somebody else and be just as happy but us being women we cant do that . They are our responsibility at the end of the day .. trust hun it will get better cause im going through the same thing all I do is pray when I feel like im go break down
