Single mum with 2 advice

Hi everyone, so further to previous post I’m now confident enough to say I will be continuing my pregnancy, unfortunately alone.
my partner has left me and said he wouldn’t be able to cope with the stress (he’s at uni) - he did everything he could say to try and sway my mind but I want this baby, so I’m keeping it.
now I’m single, I’m scared… I know I can do it! I know many women do it so I’m looking for some advice and I guess positive affirmations. 🥹

not sure if my comment makes sense, I have a little boy from a previous relationship. I’m now pregnant with my baby with my ex partner now… we were together for a long time so it’s a bit of a shock aswell

Have you got a support network around you? Sorry you’re going through this. Your ex is a coward, it takes two to make a baby and he has responsibilities that he’s walking away from. What a loser!
Things may be tough at times, but the love you have for your children will get you through. You’re brave to keep going, and you’ve done the right thing by sticking with your own choice.
Make sure you put a claim in through CMS when the baby is here. He might walk away from physical responsibility but he still has a financial obligation I support his child.

@CC222to be honest, not really… I have my mum I guess. I don’t really have friends. I do have a little boy already from a previous relationship. I know it won’t be easy, but I know the guilt I’ll feel from a termination just isn’t worth it. 🥺

You will be absolutely fine! At least you have your mum to support you. You could try baby groups or apps which women use to make friends ☺️ I’m the same don’t have many friends & pregnancy can be lonely sometimes but the thought of the end goal gets you through x
