Single and Pregnant
I'm 24 years old and am a few days off being 8 weeks pregnant. It defiantly was not a planned pregnancy and as scary as it is to have to do this alone I am now coming to terms with it and happy. I have a great mum and close knit of friends that are being really supportive. I just hope baby Daddy will come around and step up the the consequences. So far he has been up and down about and it somewhat was hoping I would just have an abortion which is just not an option for me.
I would love to talk to other single Mums or to be mums out there and see how the cope with everything, their thought and tips.

I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience.

Shall we gather strength by irresolution and inaction? Shall we acquire the means of effectual resistance by lying supinely on our backs and hugging the delusive phantom of hope, until our enemies shall have bound us hand and foot?

Congrats to you on your little bundle. The next several months will be very exciting for you. Daddy will either come around or he won't...but either way, you're going to have a beautiful little one that will love you unconditionally and vice versa, who will need you and look up to you in everything that you are. It sounds like you have some great family and friends. For men, pregnancy is very different than for women. The moment a woman finds out she's pregnant, she is a mother. She feels a life growing inside of her. Her baby, her love. For alot of men, they don't truly become fathers until that baby is born. Until they can see the child, feel the child, then it becomes "REAL".
Lots of single moms here, hopefully some of them will reach out to you.

Thank you
It's so exciting just learning how much it is growing each week, it amazes me how it all works in there. I wish I had a little window so I could watch it grow haha.
To be honest I do hope Daddy comes around because it will be an amazing experience for him. You're right, I think the pregnancy is such a scary time for men until they actually get to meet their little bundle. They have no idea how are bodies are changing and what we feel and experience over 9 months.
I hope so to. It will be great to have an insight to how they cope and what not and share experiences
