Before my b/f passed away we had an accident. I will find out in about a week if I'm having a baby. If I'm pregnant I'm keeping the baby so that his spirit can live on through his child. I know it will be hard to raise a baby myself, but I'm strong and can make it work. I just feel that it would be wrong for me to abort it since Griffen isn't here to input on it. This is so hard for me. I don't know what to do.
They say everything happens for a reason. If you are pregnant, then...perhaps considering the passing of your loved one, it is a way for him to live on. Many hugs, and let us know...
Thanks. Usually I wouldn't be hoping to be pregnant at this point in my life, but I believe that this would be a great thing.
My brother-in-law's father died right before his mom found out that she was pregnant with his child. The family basically put her through hell - questioning whether or not it was actually his child, asking for paternity tests, etc. (They didn't like her much.) She basically ignored it all, and they're glad she did, now that Darren (Jr) is almost 16 years old and he's absolutely the spitting-image of his father. He's an awesome kid, and definitely a blessing to the entire family, his daddy would be proud.
Wow, not much I can say, but I agree with hcm, and I am very sorry about your b/f. Good luck to you. ((hugs))
awwwww...i know if I'm pregnant it's father would be just as proud. Thank you all for the kind words. this has to be the hardest time in my life.
Yeah, good luck mama. I know you are one strong girl, so you can get through this. Look into WIC, and getting food stamps and stuff like that, if you need it. There are lots of assistance programs for mamas like you! Good luck, and be sure to let us know whats up when you know.
Awesome. Good luck and keep us posted! If you need to talk, you can PM me. Though, I have no clue what you're going through as our situations are quite different, but, the invitation is out there.
Thinking about you, we want to know already!!! (((much peace, love, and strength to you))) Though you seem to have lots of all the above.
Aww !! GOOD LUCK!!! You must be soo excited !! Its gonna be hard being a single parent( I have a few friends that are single parents ) but I am sure you will do great!! Good luck !! Please keep us updated !! Peace<3 Katy
so i have bad news. I am not pregnant. the period came today. it is very upsetting. I know it would be hard being a single mom and all, but now all I have from him is memories. I have noticed that this has actually made me feel worse. I dunno why exactly, but I am really feeling upset that there is not a baby growing in me. Tomorrow i am leaving to go to VA for his funeral. i am going to completely lose it.
trust me I won't just go and get pregnant. I'm still in college and everything. It would have been different if it was different with Griffen's child. Thank you honeyhannah! <hugs>
I'm sorry for your loss. My FIL died about 10 days or so ago, not nearly the same thing. I couldn't even get the strength (r have the time) to get online much, with all there was to do, the preparations, taking care of my MIL, taking care of my dh, and my kids, the emotional stuff, the plans and last minute things ECT. You are a strong lady. Everyone handles grief differently. Blessings to you and yours. How are his parents doing? I'd lose my mind if I lost a child.
