i left an abusive husband in Feb. now i'm 7 months pregnant with my first baby (a boy) and feeling very alone. it is a relief to be away from the abuse, but there is still the aftermath of the mess thats left. i'd left my job due to extreme morning sickness and thought i was to be stay at home mom and wife...but he never worked more than a few days at anything. money went down fast and he sold my things, even my cat, maxed out credit cards and in the end destroyed the apt. in a rage. i'm left with all these bills and no money. i have a parttime temp job that ends after june and then i'll be home with baby full time.
i want my baby's life to be full of hope and joy...but i feel so lonely and scared and depressed so much of the time. i really don't know what to do. i feel like every mistake i ever made has now caught up with me...

Hey Ruthee,
First off ... leaving an abusive person takes a lot of courage. Especially when you are pregnant !!!! So thumbs up on that count.
I'm currently 7 months pregnant myself w/ a girl and am single also. I guess we both thought that we would be with that person all our lives. I don't have very many words of wisdom, but I am here if you need chat.

I am here for you as well and know that you are never alone. It takes so much courage to break free from an abusive relationship but know that it is worth it, i lost my first pregnancy five years ago to an abusive relationship that I did not get out of in time, so know that you did the RIGHT thing. Things I am sure are tight, you just have to perservere and in time things will work out for sure. Starting what seems to be over can be hard but it will work out, just keep pushing! I am ten weeks pregnant and with out the father in the picture as well, looking at the bright side to this. My thoughts are with you.
