ellecheza massive hugs  , I can't even begin to imagine how you're feeling right now, but just wanted to say that I'm thinking of you and hoping that things work out okay. Hopefully after he's had some time to think you'll be able to have a good chat to try and resolve some things. Perhaps seeing a relationship councillor might be a good first step. Sending lots of positive thoughts!

Just wanted to add that I'm so sorry to hear that too ellecheza, that must be very difficult. I definitely think it would be worth thinking about family/relationship counselling, ideally together or separately if that's the only option. You can get up to six (I think?) free counselling sessions through the family court.

Ellecheza I'm soooo sorry to hear that  You poor thing after getting such exciting and long awaited news... I really hope things work out for you...  With my DD1 my partner at the time broke up with me 5 days before we found out I was pg, over the next few months we managed to sort things out and got back together before DD1 was born. I remember how hard it was thinking about doing it alone and being happy about baby but then so sad at the same time... I really hope you guys manage to sort things out... look after yourself, you will get through it either way and you will have a lovely wee baby

Thanks everyone for you kind words. I have suggested relationship counselling and he doesn't even want to give it a try. He said why try when he knows it won't work? He also said he'll end up resenting me and baby if he stays. I really don't know where any of this came from. He has been working lots and is stressed from it but I have been here the whole time. I don't understand the not trying bit and I just feel like a complete loser.

OOhhhhh Ellecheza, your NOT a complete loser!! TBH if he is saying that he doesnt want to try as he knows it wont work it sounds like hes not willing to put in the time and effort that a relationship takes and its better to get out of it now rather than later. As hard as it will be...
I hope you have family and friends around you now to support you??
You will be an awesome mum, and partner/wife to someone else, someone who deserves you and who you deserve. Someone who will love you and bubs unconditionally and will put the effort into your relationship.
Sending you big positive hugs hun, you can do this.

ellcheza, what an emotional rollercoaster you must be on. i hope that you have lots of support. i think you still need to include him in the scans etc, he will still be your bubs father. has he said he wants to be involved in the babies life? all the best through this really tricky time.

I think if he offers then let him, at least for the first one and see how things go from there? If he acts like an ass then dont let him come to the next one, but I think you have to give him one shot, even if its for him to hang himself. Also you never know what hes going to do or think when he sees the HB... I know it totally melted my DHs heart and it was just a little blob! So if he is willing to give it a go then he might just turn out to be a good father even if hes not a good partner... GL hun and KUP!

Hi Ellecheza.... I am so sorry that you have been so let down by your DP and his timing is so wrong. Maybe he is feeling so stressed from work that he feels that this is an added stress and cannot see what it is... a reason to be happy. I think give him a wide berth and if he wants to participate let him and he might come to his senses and look forward to this new phase in his life.
I am proud of you for perservering and finally getting your BFP and you are an inspiration for me to keep ttc'ing. You must be sooo excited for the scan on Tuesday and let bubs be a reason for you to keep smiling

Glad to hear he is talking to you now, I hope you can work things out and be happy again  Just remember though that you will do just fine with out him, so dont feel like you have to get back with him (if he decides that thats what he wants). I hope everything works out though, and am here if you need!!
