Well i'm 17 and almost 4 months pregnant. The father of my baby denys this baby and the fact that we were together. He was cheating on his g/f the whole time we were together and his mom hates me with a passion. And he says he wants nothin to do with me or the baby. Im scared of being a single parent. Im scared of not raising my child the right way. Plz help... Is it hard being a single mom? :( :cry:

Been There
Oh hunni I understand I have been there. I know how hard it is. Look sweety you really dont even need a man to help you with a child. I am sure that you will do just fine. All you have to do is give that baby all of the love you have and you will be fine.

Do you have a job? Are your parents supporting you at all?

I Agree
Thats true. Even though I lost the baby when I was 17 the guy still regreates not being there for me and doing what he did. That was four yrs ago. I saw the guy a while back and he told me he was sorry that he was young and stupid and he really regreated everything that happend. I just smilled and said well ok now I am married and going to have a baby by a man that wants me and the baby. Yeah that hurt him really bad.. Serves him right though. I promise one day this guy will wake up and be like what in the hell have I done and he'll come running and you will prob be like sorry we dont need you were better off without you..

yeah it is hard my mom was a single mom twice one time she was divorced the next time she lost my stepfather to cancer but she managed and very well.


She made sure my brother and I lived in a nice place and went to a nice school.I have a friend who is a single mom she lives home and her mom helps her.


It's not easy but you can do it.If the guy didn't want to stay around and deny's the child than maybe your baby and you does not need a piece of sh*t like him for a father i'm sorry but that's how I see it.

Hey, first off...Congrats on the pregnancy! I'm sure it's going to be awful tough being a single mother, but look at it this way. If he was around he sounds like quite a jerk and I really don't think he'd change a diaper, wash a load of clothes, or try to help you in anyway it would only be more work for you if he stuck around (and who knows for how long). So in the long run as long as that baby has his/her mother, he won't need him as a father (if you can call him that, sperm doner maybe.), and you don't need him. You obviously already care for this baby, so you'll be fine! Keep your chin up!
