Well the title says it all really. I'm a total mess and just don't know how I'm going to manage being a single mum.

All you can do is tell him that you will let him know when baby is born. Please try and look after you. You will be fine and can do this x

Big hugs -such a hard situation to be in .
My dd dad left me when I was 5 months pregnant and then didn't contact again until she was 4.
She's 18 now and she see him occasionally but there's no real relationship there , I know it feels like you won't cope but you will I promise you and you will have a beautiful relationship with your baby.
My dd has just passed 4 Alevels and now has her 1st full time job -I can still remember the nights I used to sit there and cry my heart out because I never thought I would manage but I did and you will -be gentle with yourself and cry as much as you want to -but I 100% promise you you'll do just fine xx

Sweetheart. You can do it. You are strong enough. Believe it.

I've been a LP for 25 years, you just get on with it. (what's the alternative?)... He's pathetic. Remember that.

Every day you will find people who are right behind you and your beautiful child. And they are the ones you need. Not him with his bullshit.

Oh, and mine is studying, working and travelling. All good!

Me too. And been lots of ups and downs along the way, nothing is perfect. But it's all we know. That's life. Grin

Always better than a dead beat dad around....
