Single Parents

Single Mom-to-be

Hey everyone,

just found out i was pregnant last week and my on-and-off boyfriend of 6 years (and ex-fiancee) did not take the news well....at all. He's only trying to pressure me to get an abortion. There is a soap-opera worthy backstory as to why he's not taking the news well, and it's mostly because of his culture (indian). We loved each other and he's a good man, i never expected him to react like this, be so intentionally hurtful, or for him to abandon me and his child like he's saying he will do. I ran through a gamut of emotions and although initially very saddened by this turn of events, i'm now excited about this baby.

On the plus side I just turned 30 today (happy birthday to me!)  have a good job, and supportive friends and family that are more than willing to help me. I'm extremely thankful for them! It is because of them and their support that i can afford be excited about this pregnancy and this little miracle entering my life.

So love the people who treat you right, pray for the ones who don't. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling down is a part of life, getting back up is living."
  • Welcome... as a single mom by choice, my personal feeling is that women are strong and are capable of anything they put their minds to.  You will get through it and I am certain there will be others around to support you!
