Hey agen everyone..
Well im feeling really down atm 'cause the boyfriend really wants me to have an abortion and i reaaally don't want to have one..im not thinking of leaving him but i don't know anymore if he'll stick by me if im honest..
Just wondered if any of you are single mums or mums to be and how u cope?
Thanks x

I am a single mum, I'm 19 and we are better off on our own. I am entitled to a lot of different benefits and although it's not ideal it makes things so much easier

just feeling so down.. got him going on every day..like he's blaming me for getting pregnant..i kept thinking he'd come round but im not so sure..just don't know how il get through this by myself!

He might come round, could be the shock. My ex was happy about it all. The minute she was born he changed and in January left me to start a gay relationship which everyone but me knew about! But honestly, even if he doesn't come round, people find a way to cope. You have to when you have a baby to think about too x

Hey im realy sorry that your in this situation. Do what you feel is right and dont let anyone else but you influence your decision. If your man dont stick around then he quite frankly aint worth it. wish u luck hun in whatever you decide. x

I'm a single mummy. I'm 19, although Kyle does see his dad. Its difficult, but very do-able, especially if you have family to help you. You can do it, you'll grow stronger as your baby grows inside you and you'll know you can do it for him/her xx

Thanks everyone ... if it comes to it il just have to get on with it .. like you say bexy_22 il have the baby to think about soo just have too. I havn't told my mum 'bout the pregnancy yet but im sure once she's over the shock she'll be supportive so iv got her not totally alone.

1 of my best mates was brought up by a single mum and my other friend is a single mum.
in both cases they're wonderful and strong people - not to mention fantastic mothers!
and theres a lot of support for new, young and single mothers .
if he decides he doesn't want to stand by you then he's not worth your time angel - you're better than that and like you said i'm sure your mum will also come round.
and remeber we're all always here to support and talk you through every step
you're not alone

x lots of love x

Im sorry to hear about your situation. I know what its like to be in the same situation. When I found out I was pregnant and I told my then boyfriend he tried to force me into an abortion but he was so insensitive about it! I said I couldn't go through with it and he was like yeah you can its easy and said some really horrible upsetting things about abortion that I won't repeat because they'll just upset people. And then he rang up saying he was infertile And he was just not nice to be honest. So we ended up splitting up.
Im not a single mum but Im not with the biological father Im with someone so much better, it takes someone really special to take on someone elses child. But I am managing absolutely great without my sons bio father, and even if I didnt have the guy I do know I wud be doing absolutely great!
But I have my parents there for support and they're great, without them I dunno what Id do so it depends really hun.
But don't base your decision on keeping you LO on whether or not he will stick around.
You'll find a way through it..were girls we always do

Hi, when i first told my boyfriend he really didnt want a baby, he wanted an abortion and that was that.
After about 2 weeks of trying to bring him round nothing changed, i asked him to speak to someone he trusted about it and he spoke to friend at work.
He totally changed his mind, he pointed out that loads of people react the same at first, (worried about money, coping, etc...) but when the babys here it will all be worth it.
Now hes as excited as i am

But if this doesnt happen for you, i was brought up by my mum on her own and she did a fab job.

Bit long sorry, but hope everything goes ok
