Pregnant & Single

[Mumtobejan2017]

Good Evening

I'm just wondering if there are any ladies on here who are pregnant and single?

I'm 9 weeks pregnant and my partner (well now ex) decided to up and leave 2 weeks ago, apparently having nothing to do with the baby once it arrives :(

I feel so lonely so would be nice to chat to people in the same situation.

Hello OP I'm 20 weeks today and single! Of course that's not what was planned but BF left me unexpectedly at 11 weeks moved on got new gf, denying baby! At the time it was sooo hard and was just thinking how will I cope on my own with a baby financially psychologically and every other way which I imagine you will be feeling just how so right now, Ex said some hurtful things and I clung on hoping he would come back which made it hard to get over but two months late and I am actually enjoying being on my own! Whatever you do don't dwell on him to come back he's left you at a vulnerable time and you need to forget him.It has been a struggle and still feel lonely quite often but once our baby's are here we will never be truly lonely again! I think it makes it harder as I feel restricted to what I can and can't do and would normally go through the pain of a breakup with a glass of wine or out with friends. I suggest finding a hobby, meeting up with friends for food? Or just doing something at home, nice bath film on and enjoy your own company. And just getting out as often as possible to keep negative feelings away till they come less and less. It will be hard but it's not like this forever! X

Hello, thanks for coming back to me.

Yes that's exactly how I'm feeling :( I hope this feeling does go soon.

I'm glad you have managed to move on and are feeling happy now.

I'm trying to keep myself busy. Redecorating the house and like you say, meeting friends.

I have so far only told one person about the pregnancy as so early on but o think once it's out in the open I will feel a little less lonely too.

Times like now when I'm just sitting here alone are the loneliest.

I am 34 and single! It was a ridiculously tough journey with many times ex reaching out, giving hope then only hitting me even more. I w'd suggest to tell someone close in real life, people will be ver excited for you and actually support you through this so you don't feel so alone. It gets better over time. I now just can not wait to meet my baby and feel I have a bond already so strong. Good luck!

*hurting not hitting

9 weeks and single! My ex and I were together 8 years, I concieved and he went to jail! His dad then decided to tell ppl my baby wasn't my PhD and he didn't stand up for me so he's a gonner!
