If talking about it and venting is what helps lower your BP, rather than bottling it up have you thought to ask a doctor for a referral to a counsellor that will just sit and listen? Or better yet, take advantage of all us ladies on here, we're more than happy to listen and help if we can.
I have a waste of space FOB. I needed some medical history for my LO and he refused to give it to me. I've not spoke to him since we broke up before that, or since then, but he has tried contacting my friends. My friends that he didn't know until a way into our relationship who never liked him..Talking about football but isn't interested in my son
I've had every get out card going, the 'I don't think its mine I want a DNA test' I've had with both of my LO's, and seems to be pretty common.
I hope you and your LO and ok and your LO arrives safe and healthy. Don't let that waste of oxygen get in your head anymore HE is the one losing out on something absolutely amazing. Let him live his single life he'll realise when its too late and your LO isn't little anymore and old enough to tell him where to go

Just think, one day when he is a shrivelled up lonely old man in a dusty chair he will desperately regret what he has done, probably try and contact his child and thankfully his son/ daughter will want nothing to do with him. Why? because no-one on gods earth treats their mother with such disrespect and gets away with it. You will have the last say and have the best life with your new little person. How wonderful is it to be blessed with being soooo loved and adored and loving them back unconditionally. Look deeper into what you will have with your LO and let it cancel out all the pain he has caused you. You will be old and grey one day but you wil have your kid/s and your grandchildren around you. He will have nothing and he will be nothing. Who is the better off?

Ugh! I am SO sorry. What a jerk!!! (insert worse name I WANTED to use) If you ever need someone to talk to, I'm here! I feel you on the red flags....I could have built a friggin circus tent with all of the red flags in my relationship with FOB. I keep telling myself, everything happens for a reason, maybe the reason was just to have this baby.

Thanks so much, girls. I feel empowered when I come here! lol

For the time being I am seeing a social worker at my center. She's great. I used to just see her once a month, but we're doing it every week now. She even sits with me in the waiting room sometimes and we just chit chat while I wait for the OB, then I see her afterwards.

I had to go to L&D the other day for some monitoring...Had an even higher bp reading...They did a preeclampsia workup and everything is normal so far. At my appointment yesterday, both of my bp readings were normal and no protein. I felt less stressed this week. I'm hoping LO and my placenta cooperate to at least 37 weeks.

Thanks again ladies...Helps, really does.
