Hello All
I'm 4 months pregnant and married to a man who a month ago decided that the grass is greener with a 19 year old. There are alot of uncertains in my life right now, but I do know I need support to help me get through this; I'd like to talk with oher people going through their pregnancy alone as well.

Well I am going through something different but welcome to SFV

Hey pregdixiemom,

Sorry to hear about your guy bailing on ya.... I'm 7 months prego and feeling completely alone. I have two young kiddo's and doing it SOLO!! I haven't been able to enjoy this pregnancy because I keep anticipating the moment I am not prego so that I can have my hormones back in my own control for one.... and so that I can get out and meet up with adults to make me feel less lonely.

I know from my last pregnancy when I felt the same way, the baby is a great addition to YOU and you will manage to find a way to raise your little one, even if you can't see how now, God takes care of his people!!

Is this your first baby?

I'm 7 months pregnant and I'm also alone. Well, physically that is. I'm glad my parents are quite emotionally supportive. My baby's father has been supportive the first few months then he chickened out of the responsibility when I was four months pregnant. I guess he just cant accept that his bachelor's life will soon be over, though he wants to reap the benefits of being a father after I give birth.

Well, just hang in there and read the posts of the others in this forum. You'll find some people who have been through the worst in their lives but they survived. It always helps to know that there were others who experienced the same thing we are presently going through (some even have worse experiences) and yet they are still here. I hope that you find encouragement here as much as I have.

Well, I am not pregnant...one thing I can be thankful for. But, I do want to welcome you to the site. This is a great place to find support.

Hi Pregdixiemom!

Welcome to SFV!

I'm not pregnant, but have a 3 year old little boy and went through my pregnancy alone. I did have my mom and sister to lean on a lot though.

Anyways hope your week is going well and look forward to seeing you around the board!

Thank you all so much for your posts. I'm glad to see all of you either in the same situation or supportive of what's going on.

My story: I'm married with two kids, 5 and 7, from a previous marriage. About a month ago, my hubby deployed to Iraq and I discovered that he is seeing someone else (cell phone bill, receipts, my space account). I confronted him and now I'm dealing with the fallout from it.

He's gone from being my friend, supportive husband, and excited daddy to not being at all. At least not in our lives. We haven't heard from him since the 3rd.

I joined this group because no matter what he decides, my baby's coming. And I need support from people who know what it's like to face this alone.

I've been a single mom before, but this will be my first alone pregnancy. My family is supportive, but they are all out east. And they don't know the part about us separating; they still think he's just deployed. My biggest cheerleaders are my children. They constantly talk to the baby, or try to buy the baby things; they tell everybody about the baby.God they're just wonderful.

I hope to talk to everyone and hear your stories too.

I went through a very similar situation when I was pregnant. My bf was working out of town. I knew something was up so I did a little research and then confronted him. Then I didn't hear from him again. (Until he was stranded in Texas, jobless and penniless, and couldn't get home). It was hard. I wish I would have had some children to focus on because the day I gave birth, all that pain went away. There was only room for joy. Can I ask why you haven't told your family? It was great to be able to lean on my family.
I guess I just wanted you to know that there are others who have survived and I know you will too. If you need to chat, I am here. As are others.
Oh and WELCOME!

I can totally relate as this is my first pregnancy alone too. We can all support each other! I'm have a 16-month old daughter and baby #2 is due in September.

Yes! I'm all about supporting each other in this. It's wonderful seeing in such a short time how many people are here! Please email me, and post so we can keep reaching out to each other.

As far as why I haven't told my family. Well, I'm still embarrassed and ashamed. And I can't face them right now. This is my second marriage and I'm watching it unravel right before my eyes. I have to come to some kind of understanding about it before I even think about sharing with them. But, my sister knows. And she's been incredible. I just worry that I might overburden her. So I turned to you guys.

Hello and welcome and here is a great big


11 years ago I went through my pregnancy all alone as well. My parents were supportive but they didn't live in the same province as I did.
I did everything alone. Shopped for the baby and set up the house to get ready. Mind you I wasn't supposed to do any of this because I almost miscarried in my 12th week. Turns out my daughter is as much of a fighter as I am. If I didn't do any of this It never would have gotten done. Lean on us many of us have been or are going through similar things.
