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).

Feel even worse now, saw a picture of him and his friends out drinking. Looking awful and skinny.

I am so fucking pissed off i feel like crying!!

Hes got a £100+ on and drinking smiling, while im carrying his son and whats happened. I am sad

I know exactly how you feel Xmas. x

Pre term labour at 25 weeks! Help! This happened 3 weeks ago but stopped. Hoping the same happens again but the pain is unreal!

Hugs to all you girlies having a tough day too xx

Hes such a bastard and his shirt nor trouses went together. Looked gay.

His loss, i am happy its just pissing me off that i sell ALL my collection of stuff and he pays fuck all.

God forgive me, i wish he was fucking dead. Waste of air and human life.

Ah, angry is good but vengeful is not. If you must wish something, wish he gets what he deserves, Xmas - that's a really powerful one.

If anyone wants to PM me, you're more than welcome to if you want a rant; or if you want to hear my rather bizarre takes on life in more detail. :)

Flumpy - hope you are ok xx

Yes, how are you now, Flumpy?

Contracting every 5 minutes but no progress. Drugs to stop it not working, nor is pain relief :-(

How u doing flumpy x

Flumpy hang on in there. Are you at home or at hospital? Hopefully they can get something sorted out for you, or have done by now.

Flumpy..hope you are OK!

Geoff - I agree, I have really really made an effort not to wish death and disease on my ex, ha ha. As I practise Law of Attraction who knows what might happen to him!! Instead I trust the universe to give him what is coming for him when the time is right. Actually I already see this coming as early on in pregnancy I attempted 3 times to discuss the financial aspects with him, offering us to come to an agreement to a rather low sum. He has ignored all those emails so guess what...he will end paying about twice as much by the time I get CSA involved. So Karma is already making small moves!

We need to trust that these men will get what is coming to them, even if it is lying on their deathbed and regretting never seeing their children! That's how I try and think anyway.

Feeling a bit better today. Realise I have gone from feeling like shit 23 hours a day with one good hour to feeling good 23 hours with one shit/brooding hour a day. So progress is being made.

Sending a hug to Flumpy and Xmas who I know are going through a tough time at the mo. xxx

Hello all,

I'm just home. The contractions stopped at about 4am after a lot of drugs/ steroids.

One miraculous thing is that exp was there and actually v supportive, rubbing my back and holding my hand. I'm hoping he has come to realise that I don't need a relationship but a friendship where we can be parents. This is a huge step forwards for us!

I'm gutted that last night happened after we spent a nice afternoon chatting, sorting garden and packing some of his and his sons things up from the house, then bam emergency hospital run

The care was amazing but it freaked me out that they were getting ready for her and explaining the risks to me and exp etc. my whole insides now ache and I feel like I've been in an emotional washing machine not knowing if she was going to come or not.

Had another placenta bleed and the scan showed her to be breach but pushing down, and the contractions - ladies prepare yourselves, not for the faint hearted!

Off for a sleep after being up since 5am yesterday :-)

Exp coming to walk dog later - all good, every cloud right??

How is Xmas?? And all the rest of you? xx

Flumpy, am so pleased all OK and that ex managed to be a support to you too. Take it easy today! I am doing all the wrong things and still lifting heavy boxes and furniture trying to get things sorted for imminent arrival...lol. Hard to slow down!!

Okay, it's Sunday - even if you don't go to church, please try to make it a day of more rest than usual! :)

Flumpy glad you are OK

Xmas, hope you are ok

Pickles - hope you are ok

I hope everyone is OK!

Catch you all later

How are we all? Flumpy im glad your okay, I don't like the sound of that contraction malarkey
I have scraped myself off the floor today and seem to be quite constructive!

Hiya. Can I join please ? I am currently 33+6 with dc3. On my own. Got pregnant after a 3 month relationship and realised at about 8 weeks pregnant that I didn't have enough feelings for dp. Was awful, he agreed to stick by me and baby, now I haven't heard from
Him in
Months . So, he will be having nthn to do with baby, who
Is a girl btw . I have a dd, 11 and a ds, 5 and a half who is severely disabled which makes it so hard, but soo worth it all. All dc from different partners. Which I feel soo shit about. Got preg with dd when I was 19, relationship lasted until dd was around 15 weeks old as xp was cheating. Then was on
My own for a year, met ds's dad, were together 7 years, had 2mc's to him before ds, then 1 more mc when ds was a baby. Ds's dad brought up my dd also and now takes nothing to do with her and very little to do with ds, although still sees him when he bloody feels like it! . In
Between all that my dd's real dad saw her on
And off and around 4
Months ago she decided, quite rightly, that she didn't want to see him.
Hope you're all still with me up to this point, just wanted to get everything out of the way first....hope to talk soon

Angela x

Of course you can join us I'm not the best for advice but welcome x

Sky what happened to the spacemanfish? I'm bored stiff so ventured into POF it was terrifying!!!!

Aww thanks pickles I met dc3's dad on POF lol

Lol it's a scary world on POF. I only browsed im two weeks from bursting and in no state to be near a man lol

Lol pickles! Well, I'm 6 weeks away, hopefully 5 if the consultant agrees to ELCS x

Ive had enough now im getting realy impatient!!

The irony! You girls want out and I'm doing all I can to keep her in!

I'm an emotional wreck tonight :-(

I miss ex-p and and his son and the family life. I hate all the unknown of how it will all pan out and how we will all feel once DD arrives.

He says things like he's not happy where he is and doesn't want to settle there. He says he hates it when I'm nice to him because he doesn't deserve it and it makes him think of the good times and wonder why's he's done what he has because it hasn't made anyone happy.

How can he go from not even letting me have his mobile number to this??
I was strong, I turned down a hug and I just said I need it to stay this way for a while to be able to trust him, he replies - I don't I need your friendship.

Wtf?! Someone explain

I miss him, and I love him and to be honest in my heart I know we could've been happy but the fact is we weren't, I don't want him back, I want to focus on us being parents, anything else to come from that needs to be built incredibly slowly. Too intense too soon is the story of our disaster so I want to avoid that. However he says he is scared of leading me on too.

I'm trying to be strong but all I wanted to do was fall into his arms and sob after this weekend :-( x

Flumpy that's just how I feel, that's why I want my baby out so I can get on with my life. It's a horrendous feeling xx
