Baby...

I really didnt know where to put this post. So i guess it will work in here. I used to come on here alot, then i moved and had no computer. But i have an announcement for those who remember me, or for anyone who wants to read. I am pregnant now with a little boy. Aint got much longer to go. I am in my 8th month. Its been hard, real hard, but now i live with my mom again. I was married, still legally am but im getting a divorce. He left me stranded and pregnant. Im having alot of issues money wise and housing wise but im getting by i guess. I keep trying to get the dad to help but he wants nothing to do with the kid. I myself think i am too young for all this, I am only 19. But now im bringing a child into this world and i still know nothing about anything. I reside with my mother now, she is going to help me for a while until i can put a roof over mine and my childs head. Things are getting difficult, but somehow i deal. A year or so ago i wouldve never made it. I used to be really depressed and suicidal. Now im just scared. I have learned to let my past go (kinda), still trying some memories. I have gotten alot better since my last episode. Finally i decided to grow up, its amazing what being pregnant will do to ppl.

(((( puzzles )))) Hi! I remember you...welcome back.

I know you must be terrified. I had my first child when I was 19, but I had my husband by my side through it all. I couldn't even imagine what you are going through. But even through all the fear the fact remains that you are going to be a new mommy to a wonderful little boy! You can apply for assistance... like food stamps and maybe something for housing. And you can go to court for child support. Would your mom or another friend or family member be willing to babysit after you have the baby so you can find a job? There are ways to pick yourself up and be able to make it. Things won't be so bad forever.

I'm glad you aren't depressed and suicidal anymore! That's wonderful. I'm glad you're back. Shoot me a PM anyitme you need to.

Welcome back! I do definetely remember you... congratulations on the baby, you must be pretty scared though, I think anyone would be in those circumstances.

Glad your mom is helping you out.

Take care of yourself and your boy.

aww! Happy thoughts for the mommy to be!

yea im extremely grateful my mom is helping. Im sure i will make it through this, i did everything else. My uncle owns a business down here and he is willing to help me get a job, so i got this i think.

Oh wow! I'm really inspired by you. I think you're doing a great job. Let us know when your little boy is born! :-)

I do remember your name......from the past. You have really gone through so much & are going through so much. It is sad when the father just bales out of everything.....there are many men who just aren't responsible & sadly, we don't know this before we end up involved with them.....then we are the ones that get really stuck.

When I was young...I heard situations like yours....that was why I was determined to have my career defined before starting the family......but that isn't always possible....I know.

I am happy for you that your mother is being a positive part of your situation.....having a supportive parent is the most important part of life. That definitely allows for more options in the future than without the famly support. It also reminds us of how we need to be as parents for our children.

I pray that you have the strength to handle everything that you have going on in your future & that the birth will be easy for you & everything goes well.

Hugz,
Debbie

This just made me think of what I went over with my t last week. I have never really had any closeness from my family- very few hugs and expressions of 'I love you'., so I have made a conscious effort to always hug my girls and tell them how much I love them. I am so happy to say that this is recpirocrated spontaneously by them at any time.

I remember you too, this is Desirae...alot of us leve then return. I hope all is well with the pregnancy. Do not worry too much...the baby feels the stress.

I love that my mom is helping, over the last few years she hasnt really been there. And after the baby is born i am going to get my GED and then go to school to be a nurse (curtiousy to my moms Fiance) It is very nice to have support through all this. I really wish the dad would help but that will happen when piggies fly lol.

Thank you all for your support too. It is greatly appreciated.

I am glad that your mom is helpingyou out

it is good to see you back (((PUZZLE))). I hope things get better for you in the future. Take care of yourself and the baby. Best wishes. Soidhonia
