Single mums advice and chat

Looking for mum friends I have a one year old little girl! Even if it’s just FaceTime calls and messages!

Hi Mamas! My son’s dad and I split up when he was 6 weeks old due to it becoming a very abusive relationship. My son is now 2 and I’ve raised him by myself with no contact and a court order since April 2023. His dad’s court case for domestic violence/drug use/attempted strangulation by me has fallen through a week ago and none of his bail conditions now apply. He has made some kind of attempt to make contact and claims he wants to pursue seeing our son now. He is not on his birth certificate and doesn’t currently have any parental rights over him, the only person that does is me. How likely is it that he will move forward and be successful with this, despite charges still being on record? Has anyone been in a similar situation? Thank you!!💘

Anyone else have a child maintenance agreement with their ex but have to ask every month for it or it’s late and you have to chase them for it? How did you handle it? What do you say when they forget? Has anyone used child maintenance services to stop the stress?

So my ex has booked our daughter into swimming lessons without even running it by me first which is fine but he has our daughter every other weekend but is getting annoyed at me cause I’ve already got plans some weekends and is giving me shit for being difficult 🤦🏻‍♀️ which I’m not trying to be but he lives and hour away and it takes a big chunk of my day and he didn’t even run it by me 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hi, I’m a single parent and I’ve been living with parents since my little girl was born… but it’s starting to feel abit cramped now and I think it’s about time I thought about moving out but I’ve never done it on my own before and tbh don’t have a clue where to start 🙈 so if anyone has any advice it would be really appreciated. Thank you ☺️
