I'm a single mum and I keep feeling like I can't do this anymore. My baby is so beautiful and couldn't be better behaved. She's 14 weeks old now and I love her to pieces. Me and her "dad" broke up before I found out I was pregnant and I made the decision to do this on my own. But I keep having this overwhelming feeling I can't do it anymore. Her "dad" has seen her once since she was born and has decided he doesn't want anything to do with her. I cry all the time knowing she will not have a father figure in her life. I just don't feel like I'm good enough for her. I would never do anything to hurt her or myself and I will always care for her. There are times when she's crying inconsolably and I find myself crying with her and getting frustrated.
I just want to know that I'm not alone with this feeling and how to get past it. :(
