I am pregnant and found out my childs father is cheatin with a married woman

I am 18. almost 34 weeks pregnant with my first and recently found out my baby daddy was cheating on me with a married women… he now lives with her and they are also moving 3 hours away together. he is taking care of her and her 2 kids, but it was always an issue for him to buy a simple outfit for his son on the way. i’m absolutely heartbroken as i find out each day more and more stuff that was going on. this has only been going on for a little over a week now (that i know of anyways) and they’re already on vacation together and “soo in love”. the married women called me and told me she messed up my relationship because her marriage was failing and my bf was the first to come in her home and comfort her (he was at her house painting for money) and ended up staying the night with her. i feel like i failed my son, we will never have the family i dreamed of , nothing will ever be the same again and he now won’t have his dad around in the way he deserves. positive messages are very needed right now as i’m so young and at loss for words & how to even feel about all of this.

It’s almost a blessing u found out now rather than later. U don’t need that type of man for u or that type of father for ur son. I’m sorry this happened to u.
U will have a happy life, just not with him. He’s not all that he’s not ever going to become the dream come true so do t wait or beg him.
Life will get better and u didn’t fail ur son. He did.

Sounds like you’re better off doing it on your own mama. But one day a real man will come along and take on not only you but also your son as though he was his own. Don’t give up on happily ever after.

You haven’t failed your son hun. People just do shitty things. Honestly if he wants to walk away and move 3 hrs away…so be it! It’s his damn loss. But file for child support and if he wants to visit his child he can make that effort as he was the one to move away. You’re a young mum, I was 19 when I had my first…its tough but totally doable! Rebuild your support network with genuine, caring people who deserve a place in yours and your sons life, that little bub will know unconditional love either way. Jump on the mums groups, they’re great for explaining things you could access, supports, groups and any advice you may need. Everything will be okay, just keep building your future :slight_smile:

Oh honey, the best is yet to come…… he ain’t shit and he doesn’t deserve you or your child. You will meet the right man when you least expect it and you will never have to worry about anything like this happening to you.

You’ve got this māmā, concentrate on you and doing what’s best for your son.

You were clearly not on the same page when y’all got together or slept together or whatever it was because he is not that into you probably never was and I’m almost positive of it and instead of that hood rat telling you this and that where is he at why is he talking to you and don’t listen to that girl she’s being messy as hell and that I would take care of in the most clever and destructive way however that’s just me… You’re gonna have to handle this in a particular type of way if you want to see something turn around in your favor and it might be the hardest thing you ever have to do I need you to just take a deep breath it’s gonna be OK but first and foremost you need to process what’s going on and people treat you how they feel about you and if he’s not with you and he’s with her than that’s exactly how he feels about you he doesn’t care he’s where he wants to be you can see that this needs to be handled any particular type of way and I wish I was near you because I would damn sure hope you handle that lol good luck hon I hope everything works out

You are young, and although this may seem like you may not have the “happy ending “ you wanted at this moment you have so much more ahead of you! Let him go! He clearly isn’t someone you want to raise your child with. I was a single mom for 20 YEARS and worked and LIVED for my kids until one day I met my person who has from day 1 treated my kids like his own. Take the time you need to “ grieve “ but don’t let it hold you back. You’re baby and you deserve SO MUCH MORE!! Wait and pray for it :heartpulse::two_hearts:

Family doesn’t have to mean blood related. My sons father and that side of the family have nothing to do with him, however when my son was 16months old I met an amazing guy, and equally amazing family. He took on me and my son, there isn’t anything he wouldn’t do for him. He loves him like his own child, he celebrates his achievements and always protects and provides for him. My partners family also see me and my son as part of their family and again see my son as their nephew, and my partners mum even calls him her grandson and treats him the same as her other grandkids.

You can still have the family you dreamed of just not with that scumbag sperm donor. Stay strong always for that little guy. The pain is temporary and now you will find someone better. Keep doing your hair, dressing up and doing your make up. He just lost the best thing for some used up, husband stealing piece of trash.

I went through the exact same thing at 18 I will be 35 this year. I fought so hard for him to be with me and be a father to my child. Truth is he won’t until he is ready and the sad thing is, our children deserve so much more! anyway she was almost a teenager when he was “ready”! She had a wonderful man raise her I am still with him to this day. I had three more children with him and what is crazy is he is closer to her than his blood children with me. They are two peas in a pod. He loves her as his own and is an amazing father to all four. Don’t give up. It’s not over. You can still have the family you dream of. I pray you take that heart break and that pain and turn it around and show him you don’t need him!

You did not fail your son his father did. From the sounds of the relationship of what you have said it wont last, and when it does come crashing down you need to decide what you will do if he comes begging to be taken once. Once a cheater always a cheater, it will happen again. You need to move on for you and your child to a better life. There are so many men out there who would appreciate you and your son and treat you both like you should be treated with importance.

My ex was with me and our daughter until she was 18 months old he left me for his coworker. They had an affair for 3 months I seen the signs and he had me believing I couldn’t live without him. I moved in with my mom got a good paying job got back on my feet apartment and everything found love again in my childhood sweetheart and we’ve just had a baby boy back in November. We are happy and my daughter still sees her father (only cause it’s court ordered) and I’m happily moved on. Everything in life happens for a reason if my ex didn’t leave me for her I wouldn’t have my son by the true love of my life now. He left you to show you something that you need to see and learn for yourself. Everything happens for a reason you’ll know after it happens and it’ll all make sense later on. Do what you need to do find your support in family or friends and never give up on yourself or that baby. You got this!

If he can support her kids he can support his child take his ass for child support and be done with him

As someone who went through a rough breakup with the father of my children (both under 3) and ultimately lost him to addiction, I hope you know that he’s not the end of your story. I know you were building a life that you’d planned on spending with him, and I know you’re blindsided and heartbroken by this, but sometimes those things don’t work out for a reason. He’s the only one here who is failing and your child will come to realize that as they mature. You’ll both be better off, and by the way, there are plenty of future potential partners for you out there who will embrace you and your son. I know it’s not what you planned for, but it’s going to be okay. :black_heart:

He doesn’t deserve to be a part of your dream family , nor do you need him. He’s an untrustworthy cheat who will cheat on her too. You haven’t failed anyone, he’s a kid himself and has no loyalty whatsoever, many don’t until we’ll into adulthood. It’s the nature of males, they nature far slower than females do and do while we’re settling and sitting out the responsibilities, they carry on like nothings happening. Get rid, live your life to your best without him. Your son doesn’t need a lying cheating 2 faced drainer for a respected role model

As hard as times are now, what will be will be. That’s a hard pill to swallow. You keep doing you, and for your son. Their will be rough times, it won’t be easy but the resiliency you bring your son will also gain, finding the positives in the situation will be your biggest accomplishments. You can do this. The biggest focus is your health and well-being, seek help where it’s needed. Do not allow another person to have control over your life, and your unborn child’s life. You two will make it, and be stronger than ever, if you believe in yourself and what life has in store for you :purple_heart:

This isn’t your fault, the poor choice and bad behavior towards you and his future child is HIS to own.

Next time wait for the proposal and the ring before getting pregnant. Even if you don’t want to get married, it’ll at least show commitment. Use reliable birth control from now on.

Also, if you have any joint accounts take out your portion NOW & put the money in your name only. Get statements from any bank accounts or other assets in his name if you can. Is your name on the mortgage or lease? If so, find out what you’d have to do to get out of either one.

Get therapy ASAP. This is a lot to deal with, and pregnancy hormones make it worse. Look into low cost phone options. Find out why you were attracted to this guy, why he turned out to be a loser, what to look for in yourself and future partners; know how to spot the good and the bad. Make sure your hopes are grounded in reality. Even the happiest families require ongoing work and 100% commitment from each person in the family.

Contact a women’s center and talk to a lawyer and county social worker to find out all you’re entitled to. A lawyer consult should be free or low cost.

Deep breaths, eat healthy & get some exercise, surround yourself with positive friends and family, rely on your faith/spirituality. Be gentle with yourself.

Get on waiting lists for daycare if that’s a problem in your area. Think about how you want to structure visitation with the dad (women’s center & lawyer can enumerate your options).

If you’re not currently working, look into jobs and training that would enable you to survive and take care of your little one. The social worker could let you know what county/state/federal training/educational resources and job services are available to you, or at least let you know where to look for it online.

Unfortunately, I think you can write this guy off. Seems like the married woman likes the sex and I’m guessing he likes her money and what it will buy. Maybe you dodged a bullet. Divorce would have been unpleasant and expensive and he sounds like an irresponsible douche.

It’ll be a struggle, but congratulations on your baby to be. I hope you enjoy the love that is like no other that a child brings. Keep educating yourself on rearing children. There’s a lot of information out there, so if you can avoid some mistakes (we all make them, just try to keep the number down), do so. :balloon::heartpulse:

He failed. You did not.

Have hope and make it a great life for you and your little.

I know it isn’t what you thought or planned but you are capable of having a happy life and rightfully deserve it.

Sounds like your child’s father is a major loser. You’ll do better in life without him.

Keep your spirits up in this struggle! Sending loving vibes and major support!

Oh my heart. Strongs mama​:heart: it’s very heartbreaking when things don’t go as planned. Please don’t stress too much as this will affect your baby. Focus on you and baby now. Things will work out :heart:

His loss! He will regret it when she cheats on him with someone else. You will find a great man who will be an amazing father figure to your son. You are young, but you will be happy again. Don’t dwell on his loser self. Worry about raising your baby and the right man will come around when you least expect it! You got this, show your son how a real man is suppose to treat a lady.

Did he lie and say he wanted a child with you and then changed his mind? Don’t be sad for too long and don’t be revengeful! Put his name on the certificate so you can get child support. Make space for him to be a part of his son’s life, if he chooses not to be involved don’t become bitter and bad mouth him, he will live to regret ignoring his own flesh and blood, but you let the universe teach him that lesson, not you! Sometimes, the beautiful children are the sweetest thing that comes out of a bad relationship. Fill your life with other positive people so your son won’t feel like he is missing anything. Thank dude for the lessons on how to spot jerks, because you are now equipped to choose more wisely next time, he did you a favor!

What everyone else said. Also imagine if you married him and he did this. I was a single mom with my first and you can do this even with tears in your eyes- you are strong especially because that boy will depend on you. If you need help financially apply for benefits- they are there for mothers like you. I did for a short time until i was back on my feet.

That woman should have kicked his ass to the curb. She only cares about herself and him comforting her. Not the fact that your pregnant with his child. And he doesn’t deserve you. You can do this on your own sweetheart. But do get everything you can from him for child support. What a loser he is. :rage::face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

Did you and this man plan a child together and make a real plan for the future. You are 18 how old is he ,move on love your son ,dont badmouth his Dad live your best life with your son ,are you educationally and financially stable ,if not concentrate on that not a looser man

If he cheated on you WITH her, he will also cheat ON her. Women don’t realize that being the “other woman” is not a compliment, it’s not cute, it’s nothing to brag about, and if he’ll do cheat on one woman, he’ll cheat on another. The pain you’re feeling right now is the cost you paid to learn that you deserve better! And you will find better! Please don’t worry about your son’s future - He has everything he needs, because he has YOU. Nobody dreams about being a single mother, especially so young, but YOU GOT THIS. Once you give birth to your son, YOU will also be reborn, as a mother. Having a child transforms you, instantly. Your Mommy instincts kick in and your whole world will change. You will be enough. You ARE enough. :clap:t3::clap:t3:

I was 19 married 17 hours from my home and family with my baby daddy and my daughter was 3 months old when I found out he was cheating on me with multiple girls and I left and I went back and I left again and he never changed and hasn’t seen her in over 7 years she’s 12 now and saw her maybe once a year after that BUT when she was 1 I met this amazing guy and we’ve been together 11 years and have a family he’s her dad. Being biological doesn’t always mean what’s best for the child I’m sorry you’re dealing with this it’s heartbreaking but he doesn’t deserve you try to stay strong when he comes crawling back

Everything happens for an reason, you’ll be an great mother to your son. Honestly its his loss. You can do this, I was exactly your age when I got pregnant with my first and I was also an single mother. She’s now 18 years old and after she’s grown up, her so called father wants to be in her and play daddy but my daughter told her father that she doesn’t need him and that she has an stepfather that’s been my dad. It was her choice, I never once bad mouthed him to anyone or my daughter. But shit happens for an reason, this guy (baby dad)probably wasn’t who your meant to be with. One day you’ll meet someone who’ll love you and your son like his own and you’ll totally forget about him. He’s definitely not worth it. Chin up and smile like you never smiled before!! Hugs one mother to another, you got this girl!!!

You have lost nothing. He is a dick. Would have been a crap father so you son is a winner. All the best things will get better

When that little boy comes along, you’re gonna feel a love you’ve never felt before… ever. That boy is the only persona that’s heard your heartbeat from the inside and that is an overwhelming feeling. So hold him right, raise him well and what was the other ‘thing’ you mentioned… oh yeah… get rid of anything toxic in your life because all that will matter is that little one.

Good luck mumma… your world about to change for the most incredible reason enjoy it.

My oldest sons father left when I found out i was pregnant. I was 19
He was 26. We had been together almost 3 yrs. It was a planned pregnancy. He just changed his mind. He wanted me to terminate . I said no and just like that he was gone . That was 26 yrs ago. You will be ok. This is the story for so many women. Always reach out. You will always find someone on here to listen or give you guiding advice. Trust yourself. You’ve got this .

Girl! Fuck that guy! You don’t need him. I get it, the family you always wanted. But almost none of us get that. Ask anyone, literally. We all make mistakes, learn lessons, and grow from it. Take your time but when that baby is born I SWEAR all you’re going to feel is “it’s me and you vs the world baby boy!” And I can contest to that honestly. I am so sorry you’re having to go through this, it’s truly not fair. Just stand your ground, believe in yourself and your son, and you will do great things! Seriously! Message me anytime if you need someone to talk to.

Believe it or not you got this! Many kids don’t have a father figure around right after they’re born but before long someone comes along to fill that role! Lean to your friends, family, church, coworkers, etc. Don’t let this get you down… she did you a favor. He left you and she used him. Let him go!!! There are many things you can do without him! I promise you when your son gets here, it will be worth it. You got this and lay your troubles down… have daily chats with God… you’ll soon see the path you should take!

He isn’t worth the effort love, sorry

This happens so often. I’m so sorry it happened to you. Your little boy’s father is no good. The best thing you can do is let him go and try to get on with your life. Concentrate your energy on your baby. The thing to do at this point is get a place to stay until after the baby comes. After that, you want to get a job where you can get flexible hours so you can try to take some classes to get job skills. Were your grades pretty good in high school? Did you take the SATs? Maybe you can get a grant for college or tech school. Then you can get a good paying job. See if your folks can help with the baby till you get on your feet. Once you have a good job, you can afford daycare. You can get a nice place and make a good go of it. You won’t need a man to take care of you. Then if you do meet someone, you won’t have to settle. You can decide if they’re right for you and your son. Then you can start building your family. I know it all sounds complicated and like it will take forever, but it really won’t. You’ll be glad you did it that way. You’ll be able to do whatever you need to do. It’s going to be ok.

Try not to hold on to the pain with the father but learn from it and Hopfully the father has a good relationship with his son and respects you aswell

that’s is disgusting. People are truely disgust heartless selfish creatures. I am so sorry you are going through this.

Hold your head high & take care of yourself and your son. Take the time to heal from this but don’t lose yourself in the process. Your son needs you & you need you​:heart: your young and have alot of Life left. Don’t spend it on dwelling over what he did. He made his choice. Don’t let him back where the Grass is greener when “his fun” wears off. You do you :heart:

The most positive thing I can tell you is to get rid of him. Your son will have nothing if you stay with this cheater. You and your child deserve much better.

Sounds like you’re better off. What a dirt bag. I did it on my own at 21 and you really will be fine. Concentrate on you and your son. Once you see his little face everything else will fade away.

My youngest’s dad doesn’t have anything to do with his biological father. And it’s honestly the best thing that could have ever happened to him. My oldest sons dad, took him on as his own when he was a baby. Yours and your sons happy ending will come. I know it won’t be exactly how you visioned it to be, but you will get there :two_hearts:

That baby is about to change your life. You only can choose in which way. Put all your love and energy I to him and trying to carve out your own path. Remember right now it feels like you’re alone in all this especially as you had your whole life planned out with this man. Hang around positive mommas and friends. Join a group but don’t just feel that he was the end of the road. I was you at that age and today I may not have everything but im far from where I used to be. But I loved with all my heart in everything I did and for my child. Life’s not perfect but you can create your own slice of perfection… I wish someone told me you’re still young and have your whole life ahead of you. Much love and strength to you… Believe me. Mommas the world over are going though this… It too shall pass…

That woman has done you a massive favour. He will do the same to her, so karma will do its job. You will be fine with you and your baby. It hurts like heck now, but you will heal. Once your baby comes along you will realise you have all the love you need. X
