Im a single mother. I have been thru alot since I found out I was pregnant. I told my ex and a week later he cheated...a week after that I had to move out while he sat in the living room and watched. Since then he's moved in his new girlfriend and doesn't want to be child support and calls me all kinds of names for me having even considered it.
Ive had some complications with my pregnancy but everything is expected to be alright thus far. I am beyond happy that I'm having this baby... one thing that always calms me down is telling myself that at the end of the day I want my son to be proud that I'm his mom, regardless of his father's actions I will always be his mom.
Its hard and you'll probably get emotional but I've done a lot of soul searching and really this baby is simply the beginning of the rest of my life...I think thats pretty exciting!

I am . I'm 31 weeks and he has done completely nothing . But it's ok because I have a strong and loving family especially my mom. So just understand that you aren't the first to be a single mother and you won't be the last.  Good luck

Hi, my mom was a single mom and I love her so much for all she did for me! I've had the happiest childhood with my mom's love! And then she met the right person who imediatly wanted to marry her and adopt me so I would have a father and my mom and him and me are very very happy!!! we are a very happy familly and now they'll be granny and grandpa :D everything will be good. You don't need to feel lonely, you have your baby that I'm sure will love you a lot and to whom you can give your love!!! There doesn't need to be a man to make things complete. As long as there is love, everything will turn out just fine.
Good luck!

I am, and I know the feeling. I felt that way majority of my pregnancy. I'm 37+3, and it's only been in the last month or so that everything hit me and I realized that I'm perfectly fine with my situation. I hope you can find some peace as well!
