Facing pregnancy alone?

[thedogsrolex]

There seem to be quite a few threads lately posted by women facing pregnancy alone for whatever reason. I was thinking maybe it would be a good idea to have one ongoing thread for support and advice...what do you think? I know it would have helped me way back when I had dd? (apologies if there is already one, I haven't come across it).

Oh i like it . I would do that say place and time. Opps i forgot....

I doubt I'll hear from him about it tbh

I was going to say dont go OTT, but look nice. I had mediation today and I wore a nice top with trousers, rather than jeans and a polo shirt and the barest lick of makeup as I dont usually wear any.

If you go....

and certainly dont give him any info on anything, let him work it all out, so its his decision and not something he can accuse you of railroading him with. Dont let him push you into anything. If you dont want him at the birth, then he has no right to be there whatsoever and I have that on midwife authority.

skye i hope that went well today, i think id do the same . Every man misses out on a great women!

I agree, when he takes you court if he does and you have arrange many times to sort it out/reason with him so to say. It will go against him and you can say hes unreliable(which he is anyway). I think he will bother for a while and when the novelty is wore off.

Sorry if thats seems nasty.

Thanks everyone, okay today.

Been really busy trying to clean up/clear out my parent's house. Still so much to do. And I've only been in about half an hour so rather tired.

Back with you all properly tomorrow for 'chat'. :)

Hi girls. Well I have been chatting to a really bloke online, same age as me and doesn't live too far away either. We've got a lot in common too.

It's brightened up my day, we have been chatting for several days a d no smutty comments at all! He knows some people that I know too.

I might go out for a date with him, I've got nothing to lose?!

skye Go for it! He might really nice and will meet another friend or maybe more

Even better he nos your friends he could be some weirdo

Went pizza hut today and it was lush can you go a date there because i would

Skye go for it!! you deserve it!!!
not geoff I hope your resting too!!
xmas you have me craving pizza now!!!

Thank you for everyones advice

Any update on Pof skye?

Twunt is now offering to drive to a pub near my parents. One where we had a
Lovely date. He's googled the area
And informed me that we could have dinner and take picklesdog walkies.

Picklesdog says he's googled the area and theres a big lake. He's only coming if he
can a) have fillet steak b) bite twunt and c) push twunt in lake

love how I have a sense of humour in this situation now

pmsl Pickles, I just spat ham roll all over my laptop reading that!

its funny how the sense of humour comes in. Im delaying filing my absolute in case twunt goes under a bus before the mortgage is sorted out rumours that Im going to push him under one are incorrect

Its up to you where you meet him. I dont know if a meal is a good idea? Will you be able to sit and eat with him and chat to him? A walk is fine and pushing him into the lake is even better

My POF has been texting me all day long! We became fb friends last night, so have looked at each others photos. He delivered near here today and asked them all about me!!!!!

Wow that's going well!!!! Really pleased for you

Well Skye you know when you want a bus they never turn up on time!!

Well I could eat a meal- if I swap the salt for arsnic! And they hide the steak knives!
I'd rather eat my own eyeballs actually

I'm getting to that stage of thinking 'why the actual fuck did I ever think you were great/sexy/amazing & why the bloody hell did I sleep with you

Ahhh yes now I remember- because I was destined to have a gorgeous DD

lol. I hope you've not been drinking madam! not in your condition lol

You do get to that point, where you look at them and WHY??!!

just having a nice chat with fish :-)

Lol defo not just in a really nice mood
Fish- that's sticking now- I hope you know that

LOL!!! Oh hes googled it, i bet all the brain cells went in overdrive for that!

Picklesdog- Oh you sound a lovely dog, i think you should follow what you think.

As for this 'dinner' i dont think i could handle myself with a knife if i saw my ex, the fork would be enough for me to start thinking.

I still have not come to the point why did i sleep with you because i have no complaints in that area.

Maybe if he eased off the FAKE TAN and doing his hair and £500 tops.

He smelt of biscut for months. His eyebrows was darker and looked a state.

BUT hes only got one thing going for him and thats his sperm

I have a date with Fish on Sunday.. haha - shoot me now!

xmas fake tan? Did he actually go to the shop and buy it himself? Please tell me no.

Picklesdog says thanks.

skye you fast worker! Well where's he taking you ?

Picklesdog sounds like a perfect chaperone.

Xmaseve, I have to say I am with pickles - fake tan would be a big no no! How are you doing today? I got a big delivery of nappies today too - looks like I am finally getting sorted!

And you go Skye! Are you pregnant?

I had a slight wobble yesterday just as the homebirth midwfe said I need to see the consultant about this baby being transverse. It made me realise how focused I have been on the birth bit, not the having a baby bit, if that makes sense as I felt so disappointed at the thought of having a c section. So in a way, I think it's good this came up now as it's forced me to think about the fact that it doesn't matter which way the baby comes out, as long as he/she is healthy.

Then my friend came round to give me her old buggy with her 3.5 year old who was like a tornado in my house and I thought argh, I can't do this!

Anyway, I slept for about 10 hours last night and I feel better today.

What are you all up to this weekend? I am going to try and go to the gym - just to sit on the bike and do some of the spinning babies exercises to move the baby head down. Then got lunch with some mates and meant to be going to birthday drinks in peckham. It's at this real hipster popup bar at the top of a carpark though, and I will just look enormously fat and pregnant so not sure how I feel about that! Then parents up tomorrow which will be nice.

Hope you all have nice stuff planned??? Pickles, hope it does all go well and not stressful with the ex xx

Polly, I'm not pregnant, I'm pickles stalker :-)

I'm glad you can see it doesn't matter how baby gets out, too many people beat themselves up over what is best or right and it doesn't matter as long as you and baby are both healthy and happy.

Going for a walk on the beach for my date. Spent over five hours chatting online last night again. He is very keen. Just hope I fancy him in real life lol

That sounds very promising!

Skye - have a nice time with Fish. (Must have missed how he got called that!).
Polly - absolutely focus on whatever is best for you and for the baby. If you can have a home birth fine; if you have to have a C-Sec, also fine. As long as you're both okay, that is the main thing. (I think I already went on about how my plans all went pear shaped but ultimately I just wanted DD out!). Enjoy the gym.
Xmas laughing at what you said: "He smelled of biscuit for months" - was that a side effect of the fake tan? Should he have been on TOWIE? Fake tan and doing his hair? With what, 'Just for men'?
Pickles - I don't think dinner is good - you might throw it over him, or hope he chokes! Have Picklesdog in standby mode by all means. A walk is good, though.

I am hoping to work through my 'to do' list today; managed to register for next year at college, got my parking permit. Got to sort out what I am wearing for our graduation ceremony, got to get some photos to my sister, and got a whole load of housework to do. And yet, I am MN-ing and FB-ing!

MN & Fb are the way forward in a morning and evening Notgeoff
Skye Im expecting a regular update!
Polly yes i feel like that with my friends 3 year old i think crickey, what am i doing?!
Your off to the gym? I dont have enough energy to heave myself of the sofa. That constitutes as most of my daily activities, sofa to bedroom!!
Have a nice weekend everyone :D

Yes he went to the shop and bought it. Fake bake.

I wear fake eyelashes and got very long natural hair maybe he wanted to come to fake side?

I said to him this biscut smell needs to stop, he said im sorry but i look good

He had his own hairdryer, more hair products than me, i bought him a brush to do his hair is cost £50 and i would love it back, he had to get his hair cut every 2 weeks. Me being nice i did it for free.

Hes got a nice face but hes abit stumpy(short legs) and had horrid feet.

Hes gone really skinny and wear tight tops its not a good look no offence to anyone but i said to him you look gay. More men looked at him than women.

Although i say all this he was good looking, but his ex fiance looked a jeremy kyle outcast.

polly bet you are nappies deep, im going to go baby wipe mad next

Xmas you do make me laugh about your ex.

I've got 5 kids here now lol, all the neighbours kids here too , it's mad.

Hope we are all having a good day.

Notgeoff - Pickles christened him Fish as I caught him on Plenty of Fish . I also call him spaceman as that's his facebook profile pic :-)

spacemanfish

skye I am being honest, i am laughing because i forgot all this.

I thought it was abit with the fake tan, he asked me to apply it once, i was giggling so much he said dont fucking worry. Even once it was raining and it went all dotty on his skin hahahahahah LOL.
