Hey,

I'm currently pregnant with my first baby and I've decided to end things with my baby's dad today after a lot of thinking. I absolutely love him to bits, he's the only person I've ever had this much love for but he's been with another woman and I guess he's chose her. I told him I couldn't do this anymore as my heart is breaking knowing that he's been with this woman and that he'd rather her over me and our baby. I just don't know how I'm going to get over him and heal. I just can't stop crying and I feel like I need him in my life but deep down I know that he will only cause more heartbreak. I'm having to move back home with my parents after all this is done, I just can't see a way forward. Every relationship I've been in, I've been cheated on and I'm starting to feel like I deserve it and that I don't deserve anyone. Please someone tell me how to get over this heartbreak? It's happened so many times to
Me that I thought I'd be used to it and could get over it :(

I’m so sorry this has happened to you. When is your baby due? Please try and stay calm, and take each day as it comes. You have been so strong already, to decide to leave, and although heartbreaking now, this will prevent you, and your baby having your heart broken once again. This little baby will arrive and he/she will completely fill your heart, and put it back together. You will work things out, living with your parents, they will be a huge support for you I’m sure. This feeling won’t be forever, the heartache and tears will turn to anger, and the anger will turn to acknowledging the fact that you absolutely did the right thing, because you deserve better. Lots of love to you x

I’m so sorry your going through this. Today he’s breaking your heart but you don’t want it being your child’s tomorrow when he walks out again. Some men are trash. They just are it’s not your fault. Don’t ever blame yourself. You gave him all your love and he didn’t deserve it.

He chose this woman over you and your baby you don’t need someone like that in your life. Try to mentally prepare yourself to raising this child by yourself. It’s better to be alone than with someone toxic. You deserve better. The right person for you is out there, just not him.

Date yourself. Figure out what you love to do. Reconnect with friends and surround yourself with those who love you. Spend time with yourself. When you love yourself and you know who you are, the right person will see it and love you for it. Not try to change you and bring you down. Chin up, you got this

Thank you both so much @MummytoMatildaX @Aly92 . I'm due in Aug and that's what I keep thinking, I just wish I could meet my baby sooner :( I always end up being the person who runs back everytime and I can't do that this time, I've got to think about my little boy and try and be strong for when he comes. I just never planned my life this way or to have a baby this way, I imagined I'd have my own house, be married and in a stable relationship when baby comes xx

Please don’t worry about the whole, owning your own house, being married thing, because it could still have happened. You are no more protected if you have all of the above. He has hurt you so much, you deserve so much more, and you have a little baby to focus on. August will be here before you know it, and although it’s a really heartbreaking time for you just now, I think it’s the right decision. You will have the support of your parents, and you will meet lots of new friends at baby groups etc. You are already being strong, as you have decided to leave. Sending love to you x

So sorry you’re going through this. By leaving a cheating partner you’re setting a great example for your son. He will have excellent morals and will be a respectable man.
You will get through this xx
