Last night my baby's dad told me he no longer wanted to be with me... I lived with him. And he told me he didn't want me to be living there. So I packed what I could and I'm now sleeping on sofa to sofa...

I'm 25 weeks pregnant ...

What sort of help do I seek?

No hate please.. this is not something I wanted to happen.

First of all I hope you're ok xx

Have you got any local family? Is there any friends looking for a roommate?

I've been staying with my dad... but someone is already on the sofa here... and there's no room for me... and I'm not working.. so I honestly don't know what to do with myself? And thank you, I'm lost and confused and just wanting stability xxx

I was in a similar position to you when I was pregnant with my son. I was able to claim income support from 28 weeks I think. I can’t exactly remember if it was income support or not it was 4 years ago so I don’t remember exactly but I knkw from that time I could get financial help.

If you speak to citizens advice they may be able to help you with what you’re entitled to.

I hope you’re coping well with everything going on. I know how lonely it can be. Have you got any friends or family you’re close to for support?

What do I do about living situation... will I get some help? I'm homeless. I've never felt this before.. I'm scared all this stress will harm my unborn little boy

Definitely go to citizens advice. The resources you have available to you will differ from area to area so definitely go and see what is available for you.
You will be high priority as a pregnant woman and hopefully they can help you find somewhere safe Thanks
