[ Original Post ]

I am now five months pregnant and when I told the father who was at the time my boyfriend he seemed excited said he wanted to keep it and he would take care of us and be there for us. Everything went so fast and we moved in together thinking it would be best for the baby. He then showed no intrest in the baby he never went to an ultrasound or a doctor appointment and I finally confronted him about it cause I feel like Im doin this all alone and this is my first baby Im 20 and Im scared. He told me he didnt want her anymore he would rather put her up for adoption and hen he left me. I am really struggling and I just need some advice and some support would be great ↓

I am so sorry to hear your situation, and what the father of your baby has put you through, unfortunately what you experienced is not uncommon. He obviously got caught up in the excitement of a baby but when faced with the reality the excitement quickly faded.
First of all, think about what you would like to do, do you still want the child or are you considering adoption?
If you do still want the child, let the father know that you are having the baby with or without his support, tell him that when the baby is born, if he has come around, he is welcome to see his child.
I can't imagine how scared you must be feeling right now, but all you can do is take each day as it comes, keep friends and family close and keep smiling.

Ok so this might sound completely insane, and might well be, but here is the proposal. I am very sick of living in the US it is quickly becoming a low brow country sized trailer park. I want to relocate to the tropics. I have access to a house that my family has in Costa Rica. One of the worlds tropical gems, a natural paradise. The cost of living is very low and affordable. As a country they have one of the highest literacy rate and a very exceptional education system. At the part of the posting you may be wondering why I am babbling in this forum. It is somewhat difficult to move there from other countries with the exception of one loophole. If your child is born there they are considered a citizen and you can apply to be one as well. SO if you’re in a bad situation or you have no one to take care of you and our child or you would rather be in the most gorgeous place on earth. Message me. I am completely serious. Obviously it may take a slight amount of time to plan out but in reality the only need that would come up are food, and utilities. That I can take care of, I have rentals here in the state that are next to a University, and have a steady in come from that. I know some woman out there would probably love to have it easy and move to country like this one. So before you take back some abusive jerk because you have no idea where to turn….. ↑
