Just wanted someone to talk to I'm in the 3rd week of a break up and I'm 25 weeks pregnant and got a toddler with my ex. Lately Iv been feeling ok but tonight I'm lay in bed crying holding my ex partners tshirt (he left as he needed space) I'm feeling so scared about the new baby coming and I really don't think I can manage on my own it's hard enough with just my daughter and I can't get my ex out of my head I love him so much still and the break up was totally out of the blue. I just feel a mess I can't talk to my mum as she just says I told you so which believe it or not I don't need to hear that right now.

Well your mums a lot of use Hmm

You will be heartbroken, scared, upset, worried etc.

Do you have friends you can call/visit?

Sob away, get some tissues, chocolates and cheesy rom dvd and veg.

So sorry you're going through this.

You poor love. Can you make a cup of tea or have a glass of plonk? You will come through this and realise what a weak man he is. He Needed space? What a fuckwit. He can have his space. You are going to have a great life with your lovely children. He can go swing. Arse.

i will be up for quite a while as i am making a curry. Wipe your eyes and pat your baby-to-be. Yummy mummy.

If you're 3 weeks in, then you've managed already and you can go on managing if you just take one day at a time. It must be shitty being left like that, but as time goes on, you'll realise what a tosser he is for leaving you at such a vulnerable time.

Do you have friends or other family you could talk to? Do you take your DD to a toddler group where you could find new friends to chat to? You'll be surprised how much support you can get just by sharing your situation.

Look after yourself and take it slowly. small steps ...

((hugs))
