Gender disappointment lead to breakup

Hey everyone,

So a little backstory.. my partner and I broke up Thursday and we were engaged and due to be married in 7 weeks, I'm 25 weeks pregnant and he's in the British Army so have been on my own practically since day one as he was away a lot, he's never attended a single appointment nor asks about how appointments and scans went. The arguments started when he went behind my back and then a few months his mother had gender disappointment which his sister defended her to say it was "a joke" - the worst part is this was my first successful pregnancy after miscarriage so it stung deep (fiancé didn't seem bothered by this).

I'm not bothered about the break up, perhaps the lack of empathy on his half as he's already texting girls. I'm more scared about giving the baby the best life and no one wanting me because I have a child.

I'm just basically looking for some advice and/or uplifting stories where you guys have coped on your own and found love!

Thanks all!!
