Anyone pregnant without the baby's daddy around?

Question

I just moved back home to be with my mom and left my husband behind. Its hard. We are still together, but he lives across the country from me now. He is supposed to move here before the baby is born but I'm feeling really alone. Is anyone else separated from their baby's daddy while they are pregnant? How are you dealing with it?

Answer

Absolutely... ive known the father of my daughter for 10 years we were once in a relationship, but since that ended we have always remained friends with benefits. Long story short we stopped using protection and i got pregnant as soon as i told him he decided he wanted nothing to do with me or our baby.. its sad and it hurts, but life goes on my daughter will be very well taken care of and very loved i cant comtrol him and his actions only mines... good luck to everyone.

Answer

I'm not with the father of my baby either. My story is a bit different than yours tho. My husband & I tried for 4 years to conceive with no luck. & in a horrible turn of events, my husband passed away in January of 2015. A year later, I found comfort in his best friend of 6, 7 years. He was also a really close friend of mine as well & I've known him just as long as my husband. We were doing the friends with benefits thing for about 4 months when I found out I was (am) pregnant. Never did him & I ever commit to each other. I was in no position to be in a serious relationship & was always honest with him about it. He was totally cool with just doing our thing & letting things happen as they may. Once I found out about being pregnant, he wanted me to move in with him & for us to be together. Yeah, no, sorry but that can't happen. That would most certainly NOT be a good situation. After my husband passed, I moved in with my Mom & I'm still living here. I want to coparent with the baby's father, but he's in this whole frame of mind that it's gonna be all or nothing for him. We haven't spoken in a couple months. So it looks like it's just gonna be me raising my daughter. & you know what, that's more than ok with me. Firstly, because it is what it is & I can't change the way her father feels. Secondly, I'm not alone in this. My Mother & the rest of my family & friends completely support me & are here for me. I've wanted to be a Mom my whole life & after so many years of trying with no luck, I'd accepted the fact that I wasn't meant to be a Mom. But maybe the problem wasn't me in the long run. I believe all things happen for a reason, & I'm more than excited & grateful for this journey in my life to start. It'd be nice if things were different, but I plan to make the absolute best of things & I know my daughter will be happy.😄❤️

I wish you all the best of luck in your situation, dear!!

Answer

My husband has been on deployment since I've been five weeks and will be home 5 weeks before I'm due (hopefully) I'm pretty much doing this pregnancy by myself and who knows how long he'll be home when he gets back :(

Answer

Mines in Afghanistan since July. We found out in May when I was 8 weeks. Will be doing this alone (besides family support) until the 39th week. He's only allowed two weeks before he gets deployed back.

Answer

I'm 25 weeks on Saturday & my husband been in Iowa since August. I felt so alone all the time.. Tuesday I arrived at our new house & I feel like are relationship isn't the same. I still feel alone because he works 14 hours a day Monday-Thursday, he gets home eats, showers & goes to bed. I feel like all I'm good for is cooking and cleaning  up after the dogs😞 
He doesn't understand that Im emotional and he yelled at me because I accidentally knock something over and it hit him in the nose. I started crying and he got upset. It's our first baby.

Answer

Yup! Me. I'm 25.6 weeks. I lived in Massachusetts when I found out I was pregnant. 3 and a half months when I found out. Since then, I've moved home to New York to be with my mom and sister. My fiancé lives in Virginia. I went to college there and moved from there to MA. We will be getting married December 10th, but his parents won't let us live together (they're strict Catholics). I'm 22 and he's 25. It's so hard. But we go visit each other all the time and I send him pictures from my appointments and we FaceTime. It's not the same as having him there, but he's as involved as possible at the distance he must be at
