Single Mom To Be 💙

I found out I’m pregnant about a week ago, after debating back and forth I’ve decided to keep my baby despite being single and being unemployed at the moment... I haven’t told anyone but my bestfriend who’s currently in the Air Force. I’m in the process of signing up for the Navy but probably won’t leave until after my baby is born... This is very unorganized and messy but I have nothing but faith that God will provide me with the opportunities that I need to succeed! Though I’m not in contact with my father by choice, I’m thinking of reconciling our relationship for family support; and I have no idea how my mother will feel about this. I’m sure she’ll be very disappointed and try to talk me out of it, but I’m 22 years old and feel that I need to take responsibility for my reckless behaviors, I can’t bring myself to go through with an abortion again; I had one last year after my birth control failed me, but this time it was my fault. I’m diving in the deep end it feels... but I would appreciate anyone who shares wise and kind words with me at this time! Women are so strong and resilient 😍 I believe this chapter in my life will make me even better of a person.

I'm in the same boat love. And by god he already knew what he had in store. He gave us single moms the power to over come it all.

Im so glad and proud you decided to keep the baby because it’s such a blessing to be honest! When that baby arrives you will forget all the negativity and be obsessed with your little one! The bond is so strong that nothing in this world can beat it! It will be hard at times but it will only make you stronger in the end and there will be so much more support financially, emotionally and physically than you think!! You got this. Don’t lose faith my love ❤️🙏🏼

hey mama, it’s gonna be hard to leave your little for bootcamp but the military is so stable. I got pregnant while I was in the Army and my husband is Navy. I think you’ll kill it, just let your little one be a motivator to push through the initial training and schooling 🤍

You're smart, beautiful, kind, and loving. Do what is best for you. You want to reconcile with your father do so no matter how your mom feels about it and who said she has to know what your doing. You will be alright, keep the faith and know God is with you every step of the way. Xoxo

Caring and protecting your baby will be so much fulfillment to you.God will NEVER leave or forsake you.He loves you and your unborn baby. You are already a mother. Protect your angel. If you want to talk privately. I'm here for you no matter what. Men may come and go.Don't let that stop you. Gather around family and friends. Yes, your dad and mom will get on board! Stay strong.Accept your blessings ❤Much love and respect to you.

You can definitely do it just FYI if you enlist in the navy you will have to be either married or give up rights to be active duty or be a reserve you also have to wait until your baby is 6 months

I got pregnant at 22, it saved my life. I was on the wrong path, not in school, barely had money. Once my daughter arrived, you wouldn’t be able to recognize the old me.

Ya you got this. Don’t let people tell you that you can’t. It’s hard for sure, but we do what we have to for our babies. Your mom I’m sure will love your child. My mom hated me for so long during my pregnancy and than when I was 7.5 months pregnant, finally accepted I was having a baby. She invited me to move in and helped with the baby till I was on my feet again. She loves being a grandma

Literally, this is it for me too! I felt so unmotivated to do anything, I don’t have a lot of close friends or family so my inspiration to maintain certain things in life was never there but I believe this is why this is happening💙 I have to put pressure on myself now for my child 😌

As much as I love your spirit of wanting to serve your country, unfortunately as a single parent you can’t enlist into any branch of the military. Even if you were to give up legal custody, if you attempt to regain custody after the fact, you will probably be discharged from whatever branch you are in. I’m sorry.
