Hi,

Really need some unbiased opinions. Apologise in advance if I offend anyone.

I am 18 weeks pregnant, split with the dad who has a new partner and wants nothing to do with thme baby and is ignoring us. I work part time and have one DC already.

I think I decided to keep the baby without thinking, as i get further along I feel so panicked especially as know how hard babies can be, never mind doing it totally alone.

I feel totally overwhelmed and if I'm honest think I went ahead because it's his. Now as time goes by and I realise he really will never be involved, I think I've made a huge mistake. I feel heartbroken by him but know in time this will pass, but a baby is a constant reminder of him. But then I think when baby comes, will I even care about him and will I be so busy looking after baby he won't matter.

Also me and my DC have a lovely, happy quiet life just us two and I feel so sad it won't be like that much longer.

I know I sound a selfish monster and can't believe I've gotten this far in the pregnancy. I know it's even worse it all centres around this man, I'm so weak and rubbish but just don't know what to do. If I could I'd run away.

Any advice would be so welcome or even a flaming which I deserve totally.

Hi all,

We're going to send this over to pregnancy choices now, we'd like the OP to get the best possible advice and don't think chat is right for this.

Flowers OP, hope this is okay.
