Single Mums....?

Dear Mums...

Have any of you got pregnant after you and your man split up?

And does it bring you closer together once the baby is born?

Answer:
DONT THINK THAT GETTING PREGNANT WILL WIN BACK YOUR MAN...IF YOU DO YOU ARE IN CLOUD CUCKOO LAND...A BABY SHOULD BE THOUGHT THROUGH AND LOVED WHEN ONCE HERE...NOT USED AS A PAWN FOR YOU TO TRY AND TRAP A MAN WHO DOES NOT WANT YOU.A CHILD'S FOR LIFE NOT JUST FOR CHRISTMAS
no a baby wont bring you both together again. but you never know it might happen.
babies usually put more strain on a relationship if its not working its not going to work. you might remain good friends though ..
Sorry if you or a friend is but it makes it worse, it brings you close for a short while then the trouble starts. But hay we all different and who knows no one can really judge on this as you are gonna have a lot of different views..

Good luck either way!!
In some couple it brings them together more, in most it tears them apart irreversibly. Out of the ones that got brought together, most will tear apart within 2 years.
yes, and it don't make the relationship better thungs will still be the same.
There is alot to factor in when bringing a child into the world unwed. How the people feel about one another and if the child was planned and wanted by both people involved. I defiantly would have to say that it doesn't bring you two together if the child wasn't planned and your relationship with the man is not so good.
you ask "got pregnant after you split up" does that mean that you have slept together since you split.
does a baby bring you closer after its born ... how could you ask that question, a baby is not the answer to problems in a relationship, and a baby does not always bring the partner back, an if it did would it be for the right reasons.. in my experience love NO ,,, we planned our baby or so i thought, but after being pregnant for 3 months he left me without a word, its now13 years on an me an my kid are just fine
I am sure lot of us have , but don't base your situation on us getting close , how close do you want if you are having a baby together,you should be close, you split up for what reason ,the main thing is that he takes care of his responsibility, you can only make him do one thing and that is take care of his child, let's hope with the baby coming he does the right thing
You have to have a extremely strong relationship to stay together while bringing a baby up,
It is such a stressful time, been up all night the baby screaming and crying all day me and my hubby were constantly shouting at each other as we were both so tired, then the other aspect is that you will no longer have as much time for your partner to spend doing you know what that will make him feel not wanted.

plus would you want a man to come back to you just because you were having his child even though he wouldnt come back without it, I think not it surely wouldn't last he should be there because he wants to be with you.
Basically if the man doesn't love you enough in the first place then the added strain of no sex, tiredness irritablility will just make him run a mile and not look back,
your kidding your self if you think having a baby will save a relationship, it just won't trust me just look at the statistics, look at all those mothers living off benefits having baby after baby with all different fathers hoping that this guy will stick around!

First you have to establish a loving stable relationship with someone, discuss having a child then if you both feel ready go for it.
obviously even the best relationships don't come out the other side as mine didn't and i was left a single mum to bring up my son till he was five, its hard trying to keep a good job and bring up a baby with no help but now i am happly married and things are rosy.
Some men just aren't cut out for responsibility
No, it's won't bring them closer together, although it will bind them together for the next 18 years!
it may bring u closer together to begin with, but the reasons u broke up in the first place are still there. Babies are stressful and take a lot of commitment, it is more of a struggle to be a couple after having a child than before. a baby can never fix a relationship, it may distract from the problems for a short time but that is all. there is a reason you have broken up, think first before involving a baby into a relationship that obviously wasnt functioning properly before a child was added into the mix.
I am a single mum and it is possible and also enjoyable being a single parent, rather than an unhappy parent that is part of a couple.
No, it was while we were together. We did split up later though, I think it would've happened eventually, but the baby kinda hurrried it up. I realized he's not the type of person to care about being a dad, and I'd rather be with someone who is, or better off on my own. So it did tear us apart, but it is definitely for the better.
yeah it bring you closer of course it will you both share the responsobilities of being a parent, and although it doesnt fix the problem with the ex it makes it all that easier to live with.
no it does not if you split up it is not good.
please don't be thinking of using a kid to get back or closer to a man

sleeping with the ex?

not a good idea..

don't wanna sound hard, but unprotected sex is bad enough, never mind the diseases but if u are old enough to be having sex then u are old enough to know u can get pregnant..
are u?
did u want this to happen.

i'm a single mom, my son is 8, and it's not easy...

a kid is for life, not to reunite a broken relationship...

bringing up a kid is a vocation, and it doesn't stop when the "baby" grows up!

whatever ur situation i really wish u all the best in the world! :)
Im pregnant and split up and I wish the dad would disappear. If you have planned it and they have run, you lose total respect for him. Puts you off them totally!
im a mother and my babys father doesn wan nothin to do wit us and im grand by this cuz iv my partner of to yrs ta help me!personally i think it depends on the ppl but do try keep the relationship on good terms even if not ta gether its bettr for the child
having a mans baby your not with amy more hurts like hell, once you finish with a man you can move on and try your hardest to forget them, but if you've got his child its not as easy.
think about the future of the child and your pals happiness, sometimes the best option is to cut your losses.
it clouds you judgement and warm fuzzys brew-- but that will end just like it already did
