((AbandonementIssues)) - I'm very sorry your husband left you when you're near the end of your pregnancy. I understand this is devastating and its normal to go through a grieving process. I realize you can't just shut off the emotions but you can put them on a shelf until your baby is born. Since he hasn't given you any hope in reconciling, I suggest you follow the other posters advice and get some legal help.

I really think your husband wasn't ready for the reality of marriage - he thought it was going to be easy and wasn't prepared for what married life entails. I do think it would have be better to wait until you finished school but not much use in dwelling on that. Are you still in school and going to finish your education?? I hope you are.

What's important now is the health of your baby and your health. You also need to get legal help and he needs to be responsible financially for his baby. I advise both of you to put aside your differences and do what's best for your child. You should also get into some counseling so you can be a stable mother. There's no point in rehashing or putting yourself down. I understand this is so disappointing but you can get through this. Try to think of the future and your baby will be a clean slate.
