Newly single, few questions


Me and my BF split on sunday, im surprised it even lasted that long, he is not at all impressed that i am pregnant, tho he is at least acknowledging it so i guess thats something...

He already has 3 children, to 3 different women so soon to be 4 to 4 i just wondered what i should expect in maintenance payments? he earns around £290 a week after tax. but taking into mind the 3 kids he already has i cant seem to work it out on the csa calculator thingymebob

thanks in advance!

I cant help on the child support front hun - maybe give CSA a call and see if they can help??

Ur ex sounds alot like my DD's father - hes got 3 kids to 3 different women. Then again, this babys dad is the same - Xavier will be my ex's 3rd child and i'm the 3rd woman lol Go figure. *sigh*

Hopefully he does the right thing and stands by u and his child. What is he like with his other 2 kids?? My ex does the bare minimum and only when nagged by his mother (or me when i was with him) to make the effort with his kids. He told me he wants nothing to do with me and his baby when i was 12wks pregnant..... and tho we live in the same town, ive heard nothing from him since. He's a jerk, so im not expecting him to do the right thing by this baby....

Good thing these babies have strong mummies!!

if he earns £290 a week then there is 4 children, providing he doesnt have any living in his household her is liable to pay overall £72 a week then you divide it by 4 so you'll be looking to get £18 a week from him.

Hope that helps! xx
