Hi Peanut,
I'm Abby and i've been alone with Chloe since the start (With FOB hanging around in the background)

It's hard work, but you will be surprised how you do manage it all - the way I saw it is that had no choice, when Chloe woke up she needed feeding. Just break it down, get through hour by hour.

I can't even begin to imagine how devastated you must feel - surround yourself with people who love and will support you. Do you live near your friends/family??

If he is determined to leave, he MUST pay maintenance. You will be entitled to some benefits (i don't know what your housing situation is) so maybe speak to the Citizens advice Bureau.... they will tell you everything you need to do/can get.

I know it sound overwhelming - please PM me if you need any more help, or just some one to talk to.

Let me know how you are doing - thinking of you xxxxxxxxxxxx

I was like you, ex worked 72 hours + a week so i did it all.

He drops in when he feels like it just to annoy me

I have been doing it 8 weeks and nothing much has changed.

It does get exshausting thou, so try and enjoy the 1 day off you get.
