Pregnancy Info HOME

Hi all, this is not a question at all. I have been reading some of the questions and stories in this blog and can see how stressed and depressed many of these single mothers are. And yes-they have every place to be. It is very scary being pregnant. Especially when you're alone. I am a single mom. Have been for over two years now. I gave birth to both of my children with out their father there. During most of my first pregnancy he was in jail. And the day I found out I was pregnant with our daughter he died. It was extremely hard raising my eight month old son, mourning my fiancee, and trying not to miscarry all at the same time. I didn't think I was goin to make it through all of that but my little angels pulled me through. The message that I want to send is this: YES IT IS VERY SCARY AND SAD GOING THROUGH SUCH A WONDERFUL TIME OF YOUR LIFE WITHOUT THE FATHER THERE. AND YES YOU MAY FEEL LIKE YOU CAN'T TAKE IT AND AREN'T GOING TO MAKE IT. BUT YOU WILL. THAT BABY WILL GIVE YOU ALL THE COURAGE AND STRENGTH YOU NEED. YOU WILL MAKE IT WORK BECAUSE THAT SWEET LITTLE FACE WILL LOOK AT YOU LIKE YOU ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT PERSON IN THE WORLD. AND YOU ARE. ALTHOUGH IT MAY BE HARD TO BELIEVE, YOU WILL NOT FAIL YOUR CHILD. YOU WILL FIND A WAY TO MAKE IT THROUGH ALL THE RAIN AND PREVAIL. DON'T GIVE UP LADIES! I am 22 years old. My son is 3, my daughter 2. I had nothing but a few shirts and few pair of jeans the first time I found out I was pregnant. I got a job, went to school, and worked through my pregnancies to get where I am today. I don't live in a mansion, and money is always tight. But there is a roof over our heads and food in our bellies. Whenever I think about giving up I just hug my kids. That child is all you need now. And you will love like you never knew you could. I hope I helped someone with my story. Good Luck and God Bless You All!
