Every night is like a nightmare. How do I ensure my child never knows they weren’t wanted. How does he interact with his siblings that his dad did want? So many concerns and worried and sadness

What in the world? You have to explain more. Did you know he didn't want this baby during pregnancy? Was it sudden after birth? Is dad still living with you? Do the siblings? How did that happen?

1. She doesn’t need to explain anything. Whether he wanted the baby or not it is her baby. Fathers can ditch their partner or their baby at ANY TIME. So silly of you to write these questions.

I had NO idea, he was bragging about him to everyone, he literally helped deliver him, and then about 3 weeks in he started talking to another women and then shortly after flew to vegas to meet her and hasn’t come back since. and then in arguments since he’s been gone he said things like I forced a baby on him etc. I never knew he felt that way till now (am sure it’s just an excuse to leave and go be a rolling stone) he def has left his other chidkren as well but he at least talks to them and is happy to see them or be around them when he does visit. So I guess I should have seen the pattern but yes we were living together uo until just now. He may come back but he hasn’t come back yet so idk really what’s going on I just know that leaving a new born is a clear sign that you don’t want to be around him

thank you so much we’ll said and written. I can do this. I have been doing my best ti not let my sadness effect our time together, I never want him ti feel unwanted so I’m going to keep being my best self for him and just work on healing as I can.

thank you, everyday I try to make sense of itC make excuses but how could you? Really. A newborn? So yeah, I’m trying to let go I’m just still in utter shock.

@NAaimaS how are we supposed to help her without having the info necessary? I asked so we could give proper advice, not advice based on 1/4 of a very crazy story

@Taylor D thank you for explaining! That's just insane. I hate how we give our all to people we think are invested just to find out they flake out. It's traumatic and breaks our ability to trust.
You love on and raise that baby just like always. Don't let this deflate you mama. I'm so sorry.

but she doesn’t need to explain anything to you it’s as simple as that. Go by what she has said and if you can help her help.

naw sorry I don't give advice willy nilly like that. I want to make sure it's genuine. Bad advice is the worst.
