Hi all,
Thought I'd join in too! Being single is tough in so many ways, but is so liberating at the same time.

My DD is 20mo & I am pregnant, due 5 days after her 2nd birthday, in October. Her dad is MIA. My ex and I met when DD was 8mo & I fell pregnant around the time we were breaking up. He has always wanted to be a dad and so is keen to be involved, but that comes with its own complications.

I am enjoying my pregnancy, though it hasn't been as smooth sailing as my first. Thankfully not so much with pregnancy related complications, but tonsillitis, ear infection, colds etc! It has certainly put a strain on me at work as I've had to have so much time off with either my DD being sick, or me!

Feeling a little anxious about having a newborn and a toddler on my own - any advice appreciated!
I love being single and independent, despite the hardships that come along with it, it is all worth it in the long run. I'm sure I'll work out new routines juggling the two kids quick smart - I just hope it leaves me with enough energy to exist happily and not be tired, grumpy and irritable all the time!

It is inspiring reading all of your posts, thankyou!! xx
