OK so my baby's dad died around a week after conception, I'm in a boyfriend/girlfriend relationship but he doesn't think he's ready to be a dad. So I am S.O.L

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I am so sorry for your loss 
When my daughter was 8 months old her Dad died suddenly. That was 17 years ago nearly and i have to tell you, it is possible to have a good life as a single parent. I got involved with another man a couple of years after that happened and we had a child together and married, but unfortunatly he was abusive and I had to leave so i found myself on my own with a 7 year old and a four year old and it was awful that first year.
I thought i would never be happy again, but i've been raising my kids alone for 10 years now and i'm doing okay and so are my children. You may find that one day your current boyfriend is ready to become a father to your child, but i would concentrate on first and foremost just working on it being you and your child.
I made the mistake of believeing that i needed to find a father for my daughter and married the first guy who i dated after my first love had died. I jumped into that relationship and though we have a son from our marriage and i wouldn;t be without him for the world, i realise i should have spent more time getting to know my ex.

Don't rush and don't fear.... I've come to learn that we never know our true abilities until we are put in a position where we are forced to use them.
God wouldn't give you something you couldn't handle... I had a lot of fear about being a single parent but I wouldn't change anything about it now... It's made me find strength I didn't know I had and it's made me appreciate every moment with her... She feels the same...
Prayers that you get through this tough time...

I'm soon to be a single mother too. My husband has decided to walk out on our marriage for self-centered reasons. I have a 10 month old and a baby on the way. I'm scared too. I'll keep you in my prayers
