Question

My husband left me on Monday... has no plans to come back. I’m 18 weeks pregnant .. obviously scared, I have two other kids to take care of, I work part time & I can’t even begin to believe this is really happening.... my mind is such a mess, I have cried every minute of every day. My eyes are so swollen and looks purple, but I have to go to work & pretend I am okay... he is coming tonight to pick up his and my step daughters stuff.. he has messaged me a few times just to remind me he isn’t coming home, that we can’t fix this and even told me he no longer wants this baby.... (all he ever wanted was a son)... we are having his son. We found out last week, he cried tears of joy... but today... I am broken, I am hurting, I am scared and I don’t know that I can do this on my own 😭😭😭
I’m not looking for sympathy, just hoping someone, somewhere can relate... tell me this gets easier. I have barely slept, I’m not hungry, I am seriously so broken. I laid down at 2 am .. woke at 3:07 in hysterics, face covered in tears, couldn’t catch my breath... hoping this was a terrible nightmare. But apparently; this is my life now 🤦🏼‍♀️😭😭

Answer

Me! But I left him ... I was tired of the lies & sneaky shit. I already have a child I’m raising alone from a previous relationship. Clearly I’m pregnant now but I cannot allow myself to put up with the be I’m going through. At times I cry and wAnna call him but I think that’s because I was so used to the toxicity smh

Answer

I’m so sorry. I’d try to focus on practical things, like making sure this asshole is paying you child support.

Answer

I'm so sorry love. I can't even imagine what you're dealing with. I've had a very close friend of mine who was in a similar situation. I can tell that it took her a while but eventually she began to feel better. She surrounded herself with family and friends who loved her and that seemed to help.

Answer

I'm in the same boat  he left don't want the baby I cried for a week I feel better now some days are hard some days are easy but in the end I have to be strong for the kids  hang in there  this pain won't last forever

Answer

I cannot personally relate but I’m cheering hard for all of you going through this! You are all SO strong! You’re babies are so lucky to have you. Sending love and hugs

Answer

Oh man, keep moving forward mama. You have 2, almost three littles looking up to you and you are their role model. They are watching you and seeing how you deal with stressful situations such as this and maybe one day they will look back and think “wow my mom handled that with such grace, I hope to be just like her someday” stay strong lady, I don’t know the details of yalls situation but if he wants to leave so badly let him. You don’t need him and you deserve someone who won’t leave and will treat you and those babies like a queen. There are tons of single moms out there killin it and you will too! 💕

Answer

I’m so sorry sweet girl. Wishing all the best for you and your baby!

Answer

I’m in the same situation! I left because my mental health was really at risk staying with him because I felt lonely being around him and would literally have to beg him to come to be involved with me going to doctors appointments and all he would do in the appointments is be on his phone..
