I am 8 months pregnant and I am scared. I have no friends and family and my babys father is leaving me. : (??
Answers: This won't help with the future daddy issue, but look for your local Healthy Families agency. Healthy Families America strives to provide all expectant and new parents with the opportunity to receive the education and support they need at the time their baby is born.
Healthy Families America is a national program model designed to help expectant and new parents get their children off to a healthy start. Families participate voluntarily in the program and receive home visiting and referrals from trained staff. By providing services to overburdened families, Healthy Families America fits into the continuum of services provided to families in many communities.
The Staff of Healthy Families America programs:
Ensure families have a medical provider;
Share information on children's development processes;
Assist families in identifying their baby's needs and obtaining certain resources;
Support families in the home while they respond to their child's and their own needs;
Share ideas on caring for babies, toddlers, and young children;
Link families with other resources in the community for assistance with job placement, identification of day care providers, etc.;
Assist families in following up with recommended immunization schedules; and
Help families feel more empowered.
what state and/or city do you reside?
Well it'll all be over in 30 days or so when you can make friends at mother and baby clubs. Look on the bright side!
Well sounds like you're screwed! Maybe you should consider adoption on this one, seriously. You need support of family which you dont apparently have. ADOPTION!
There are plenty of support groups you can go to...once the family sees that beautiful baby im sure theyll change their minds:)
wow ..what a situation but you forgot one thing...you will have the baby. might be rough but you won't really be alone. your church??
Adoption is your best bet, if you want to stay invovled in the life of your child then look into Open Adoption.
I am a single dad and it is hard but it is possible. All you can do is your best, for you and your baby. Try and join a parenting club and always put your child first and you will be alright.
WHAT! that is crazy! there should be lots of new moms or even some old moms willing to chat with you about things. HEck, the lady at the bank was telling me about how I should be feeling and when (Im 2 months). And, there are lots of people online to chat with. DO you go on certain baby forums? Who cares about the father, he is a jerk for leaving. What an idiot he is. FOrget him, if he has any brains he would come back. What about HIS mom? What does she think! Maybe she might be a good source.
That's what you get for being a s***. Sex is an act that has consequences and therefore should not be preformed outside of a healthy marriage.
try talking to the babys father and get him to understand. In terms of the baby, whatever you do, DON'T GET ABORTION!!!!!!!!!! abortion would be killing the baby and its just wrong. keep the baby and try to take care of it. With your family, do you not have any or are they not talking to you? If you don't have any, try to get some really close friends and maybe get some help from the babys father's parents. If you do have family, try talking to them and let them know that you need them with you during these hard times. I wish you the best of luck with your situation. Things will get better. :)
I'm going to assume you and your boyfriend do not have jobs either, if that is the case, I would strongly suggest giving your baby up for open adoption. Then try to pull yourself together, and find a job and start over, next time, wait till you have a steady relationship, possibly marriage, altho nothing is a guarantee. Start over and don't rush into things.
If the BF has a job and a good one at that, I'm not taling minimum wage either, but you could get him for support through Social Services, and could possibly get living assistance too.
Weigh your options. Just remember if he has a minimum wage job, you will get nickels and dimes as a child support payment, which could barely even provide for diapers, let alone shots, medicine, clothing, and when they grow up, dental bills, and school supplies.
Check with the hospital or your community to see if there are any single parent clubs you could join.
Ah ha! You should have thought of that before, slut! You get what you deserve!
sorry to hear that!
be strong and dont worry everything should be fine!
when my best friend got pregnant her parents kicked her out and nobody but me would talk to her and she was only 14
but remember to stay strong for your baby and when he or she gets here you will have someone else to love that loves you back
I am a new-ish mother. my daughter is 10 months old and she was a trojan baby . I love her to death. things will be a bit rocky at first but every single mom has doubts and concerns if they are doing the right thing being just a mom. every mom I've talked to also says they wouldn't trade it for the world, including myself. I'm gonna be honest with you, it is a bit hard at times being a parent and even more so doing it by yourself, but the first time you see your baby you will know what is right not only for you, but also for your baby. if you are thinking adoption, talk to some of the people at an adoption agency BEFORE you make a final decision, hold your baby, and think what is best for the both of you. you and your baby are the only ones who will be affected for the rest of your lives by this decision if the babys dad is leaving so dont even consider him in ANY of your decisions. the rewards of having a baby are great and I honestly hope you get to enjoy those rewards going through the pregnancy! GOOD LUCK in which-ever choice you make!
dont worry itll be ok. trust me
You should be able to get state support and the daddy will have to pay child support til the baby turns 18.
I don't mean to be a jerk but.....Got to learn the hard way that all guys have just one thing on thier mind 24/7. SEX
Ever heard of the term nice guys finish last? Maybe you should look for them next time. Instead of Home Dog that bangs you and leaves you.
