    What a sucky situation. Yeah i'd be going the doula route. Or do you have a close friend who would be a good support?
    Fingers crossed he can make it.

    Thanks!

    Thanks guys!

    Have posted on the doula section, so hopefully will get some responses there!

    Yeah, it's a bit of a sucky situation! No, I don't have any friends who can come into the delivery room with me. Everybody is everywhere but here! LOL!!

    But it'll be okay!

    I'm sure my fiance will be back either before baby's birth or very soon after.

    Maybe a doula will respond who is generous enough to defer payment or allow you to pay in instalments - not sure how that stuff works. I think that your ex is going above and beyond the call of duty and it wouldn't be fair to expect him to pay more, at this stage. It's great that you are good friends and he has been able to offer such support. I hope your situation is resolved soon - it sounds incredibly distressing.
