So I left my partner today I'm 28 weeks pregnant and I feel so hopeless. He always puts how his mother felt before me even when she was in the wrong and I can't take it anymore, he doesn't seem to care; he happily left to go back to his mums, I have 2 children and I'm pregnant with my 3rd I have no idea how I'm going to cope, please tell me this get easier :( I know it's not his fault but I hold so much resentment against him as he can go to his mums and live a happy care free life see his friends every day and have most of his wage to himself ( I am no way complaining about paying for my children) I just now know money will be a struggle. I hope I've made the right decision

Hi, sorry to hear you're in this situation. Please try not to worry too much, do you have a friend or a family member you can talk to?
You will be okay, he will pay child support. He cannot spend 'most of his wage on himself' he's a father of 3. Are the other two kids his?

You will also get government support as a single parent, I'm not in the uk but others will help you on here; they're a calculate that will estimate how much you'll be able to get.

Have you been together long?

Oh I think it rather is at least somewhat his fault!

I've been a single parent. A long time ago. It's hard, but you can do it, it will get better, and in all likelihood your life will be much better in the long run than putting up with this nonsense.

There is so much practical help on these boards as well as emotional support and encouragement, but do also get support locally as well.

I don't know what you need right now and I'm tired (yet awake) so I won't start giving specific advice now.
