Pregnant and doing it on my own
I live with my child's father but he isn't involved at all. I'm 16 weeks and he has only been to one appointment. He makes up excuses as to why he can't go to my appointments. I'm in college and 8 hours away from my family and his family is his family. They act like he can do no wrong an I'm just complaining for no reason. We are no longer together with absolutely no plans on getting back together. He isn't boyfriend/husband or father material even though he begged me to have his baby. I got pregnant on the pill and I was devastated at first. I found out when I was 4 weeks my body felt like it was shutting down. Him and his family kept telling my I was over exaggerating and nothing was wrong with me. I took 10 pregnant test and couldn't believe it. I'm a senior full time student and work part time. I had plans but now my plans just include my little one. My pregnancy is so hard and not having my family here is making it harder. I cry everyday because I'm so sad and I know that's not good for my baby but I'm trying my best to keep it all together and moving.
