I am 20 weeks pregnant and scared. The father is Asian and muslim and doesn't know about baby. I am white and Christian. I finished with him when I found out. I am too scared to tell him due to the risk of honour violence. I just feel so [censored], that my baby will never have a daddy.
Hi ya im 24 weeks pregnant. I met my partner a year ago. we got on like a house on fire and then we broke up because he said he made a mistake and rushed things and a week later was back with his ex. Then i found out i was pregnant and told him and he told me he wanted nothing more than to be a father and then told me he was staying with his ex. A while later she made him contact me and tell me he wants nothing to do with either of us. So im alone and pregnant and u know what its not the end of the world ill have the baby and raise it myself and when its old enough and wants to know about its dad i will tell it the truth. The way i look at it is u have to do whats best for your baby and think about what future u want for your child.
hi sweet,
i am a single mum to 4. the father left after we were together 10 yrs and he is dad to all
4.
un you will be fine its hard and yes emotional but i dont regret any of my kids and
neither will you.
im not sure what you should do in regards to dad but i feel for you hun.
hpe all goes well for you and your little -one-to -be!
hugsxxxx
your babies safety (and your own) is way more important than the baby having a dad, i wouldnt worry about that. there are thousands of single mums who do just fine, ou are lucky to be a mum-to-be, do whatever it takes to keep yourselves out of harms way, even if it means being skint and moving etc etc. Plus, whos to say that one day you wont meet a new partner who treats you right and can help care for your baby?? You dont need this man, and he cant prove the baby is his or have any thing to do with you both if you say so.
Also a lot of police stations have special units for things such as honour violence or forced marriage etc etc, speak to them and outline the situation and they may be able to help. good luck hun x x x
Thank you so much to you all X
hey hun
i am 18 weeks pregnant and i havent been with the father since i was 10 weeks. I already have a 5 year old and her dad does support me but i am basically a single mum.I am not going to lie to you it is hard but if you just believe in yourself you will be able to do this on your own. The baby im pregnant withs father is a total waste of space he left because i refused to pay for his drug habit when his parents decided they was not going to fund it anymore he told me he didnt like the strong woman i have become and packed his stuff and left. it was upsetting at first but now i know he is just childish i ddont need a man who doesnt care for his children and neither do any of you!
good luck
