I'm 38 weeks pregnant and me and the father recently broke up because neither of us is happy and didnt want to bring a baby into an unhappy household. I'm not going to breast feed but don't know how long it should be before the dad takes him over night...and how do I talk to him about it? We are still friends
Re: Don't know what to do
I'm not sure we have too many regulars who are in your situation. Minnesota's initial advice seems pretty on point. Most of us worry about the BD wanting to take the LO way too early since a lot of us ended up breastfeeding. You say you're not, so it's really up to you and your BD. does he live close by? My BD lives (last I heard) in a car on the outskirts of the city about 1/2hr-45min away from me. Even if he had a place to live, I wouldn't trust that fucker with a baby. Last time he held DD, he almost dropped her on her head and almost broke her arm trying to catch her. If your BD is reliable and trustworthy, and knows how to hold a child, you guys should figure out a plan for when he would feel most comfortable with a newborn.
At op, im not a bitch. I am thee bitch.
Oh and i love the you dont know my lyfe you are such a biotch line. Screams noobie who doesnt know how to take a flamming. I still think your a drive by poster and thus i dont care you think im a bitch.
You would also know im sm to a two year old little boy whose mom only takes care of him when its convienent to her. So dont act like a special snow flake im not a.poster who blows sunshine and roses up asses.
I'm glad things are okay for you now, but you really should read through some of the other posts here so you can be prepared if things get complicated. The moms here have been through a lot and gained a lot of valuable knowledge from that.
