Should I contact his family?

[GirlabouttownxXx]

Long story short. I’m 37 weeks pregnant and my ex partner has left the country and told me he can’t come back due to visa problems.

I don’t believe this to be true.

I feel that he is so scared to tell his family about this baby he would rather lie. So I’m wondering if I should make contact with his family. He says he has told them but again I don’t believe him.

I feel like he wants to pretend as though me and his child do not exist. I also feel that his family will be able to tell me the truth because he is a pathological liar.

What should I do? Any advice would be much appreciated

I'm glad telling them went well for you. Hopefully they will be supportive to you and your baby in future.

Thank you all so much for your words of advice and encouragement. It really means a lot to me.

Well done! I don't want this to sound patronising but I think you're so brave! I wish you and the baby all the luck in the world

I'm so pleased you've told his mum. I hope good things will come out of this. Congratulations on having a baby!
