I'm so confused and sad and just don't know what to do for the best!
I'm a single parent of 3 ages nearly 11,9 & 7 and up until last night I had a boyfriend of 2 years and I'm also 9 weeks pregnant by him, the baby was not planned and he has made it clear he does not want!
I thought I had made the decision to keep the baby and do it alone but now I'm panicking worrying if I'm doing the right thing for myself and the children I already have!
I brought my 3 up alone since they were all under 5 and things have got better and easier now they are older can't help thinking maybe I'm just going to make life harder than it needs to be for everyone!
I don't know at this stage what if any involvement this babies dad will have though I can say 100% he won't be great or that reliable and has drink/responsibility issues and if I keep the baby I will be attached to this loser of a msn for the rest of my life
But yet I can't imagine not keeping the baby!
I have my first midwife appointment tomorrow and I'm unsure if I should tell the midwife how confused and sad him feeling at the moment
It's just such a hard thing to deal with and if someone had said to me 3 months ago what would you do in this situation I'm sure I would of had an answer and felt 100% confident but it's not until you actually find yourself in that situation that you realise how bloody hard it is!
