Dear all

Me and partner of 7 years have been TTC for 2 years. In honesty my heart wasn’t in it He so wanted it and I wanted it for his sake.

We split up over a week ago (my choice) which he was upset about and contacted me every day.
A week later to my shock and delight I discovered I’m pregnant and told him straight away. Immediately expecting everything to be forgotten as we would be so wrapped in happiness. A true movie moment where nothing else matters the birds sing and the couple live happily ever after.
Instead he was cold, said he would ‘support me’ whatever I decided to do...? Hmm DECIDED TO DO??? and that he would support me 100% he wants this baby but no longer wants to be with me. Despite 2 days earlier begging me back.

I’m totally broken, We finally get pregnant and now I’m having this baby alone? Confused I didn’t plan to have this baby alone the agreement was ‘us,’ I feel duped and fooled and heartbroken and alone....And so much more

Why did you expect him to want to get back together though?

If the relationship wasn't well enough to survive pre baby, it'll be even harder to survive post baby with the financial burden and sleepless nights and all of that.

What do you want to do about the pregnancy? If you don't mind being a single mum and want to continue on, that's great. On the other hand, he's not likely to come back if you keep the baby. Finding out I was pregnant after a breakup was not enough to make my husband change his mind. We stayed split, I raise our son alone. Just keep that in mind.

Hello Wales

Sorry to hear you yourself have had to go it alone...
I broke up with him after he did something stupid and at the time (obviously now knowing I was hormonal) I blew it up and broke up with him. As far as he told me he was sorry and wanted to get back together, so finding out I’m pregnant I was ready and willing to totally forget the whole thing and begin the new chapter of our life’s. So for HIM to then say ‘I don’t want to be with you.’ Has really thrown me.

There’s no question that I’m delighted despite the circumstances. I am actually surprised about how excited and happy I am. I’m just heartbroken at the same time.

Did your husband still come with you to appointments? Or did you literally ‘do it alone’
