I'm pregnant and getting attention from someone else

Hi, I'm nearly 30 weeks pregnant and split up with the baby's dad because of abusiveness. I wasn't looking for anything at all but someone I used to work with has been texting me for a few days now! If it was anyone else I don't think I'd give them the time of day because I'm pregnant and been through a pretty awful time with my ex but I've always sort of had a fancy for this man when we worked together, so I wanted to see where it goes. I'm not sure if he knows Im pregnant yet but he is quite a lot older than me and already has a child his self! It's just harmless texting at the moment but I really feel like I'm doing something wrong! Is it ok to be moving on whilst pregnant??

Obviously if he asked to meet up or anything I would tell him I was pregnant but I'm not sure what his intentions are at the moment and it's not something that would come up in conversation easily...

Hey whatever your name is, how was your day? Just wondered if you had heard my exciting news! I'm pregnant. Shame the dad isn't sticking around but I'm excited for my next chapter.

I do personally think you should mention it. Sure if he's someone you use to work with I persume that means you havnt spoken for a while so the usual questions of how are you... What's new etcc have come up?

Even if there is nothing to it it seems a little odd not to mention it? Just my opinion anyway x

It’s ok to move on while you are pregnant but basically being pregnant leaves you hugely vulnerable to wolves in sheepy clothing, pregnancy fetishists and men that choose you because you are an easy target. You have been in an abusive relationship, and without taking sufficient time to heal, you risk falling right into another one.
