Single parent or adoption?!

posted 12th Oct
I am not fully sure what advice I am looking for. I am 21 weeks pregnant, the father and I just broke up last week. I caught him lying to me too many times, and he hasn't been helping financially at all. He just got a new job and says he wants to help and change, but that is hard to trust. I am looking at all my options. Getting back with him, giving my baby up for adoption to a loving couple, or being a single mom. Does anyone have any stories or advice on doing any of those options, if you have been in this position or anything?! I am 22, live on my own, and have a good job (but may be up in a month due to my contract) and I have no family in the state I live in, so I am kind of alone. Thanks to anyway who has advice

I am a single mom [who didnt start off being a single mom] and I have placed a child for adoption.

You need to think about pros and cons of all options.. and Please do not get back with him. I have been with a guy that all he did was lie lie lie lie and lie...

What were you planning up until you and your boyfriend broke up?

What you decide to do is entirely up to you, but I want to say that I had much less than you and was a single parent and am very happy with my choice despite all the troubles.

Sorry to get personal, but do you ever regret giving your baby up?

We were trying to figure that out but were moving towards living together and raising the baby under one roof. Both our parents are split up and we didn't want to be like that, but things changed.

I am a single mom, my daughters father is not involved at all really. He left me when I was 6 weeks pregnant and I have done it all on my own. It can be tough but it is well worth it.   My daughter means the world to me.

Quoting Phyredawn:" Sorry to get personal, but do you ever regret giving your baby up? "



Its not getting personal. For the most part no I do not regret placing him.
