I had a baby about 6mths ago. My time while i was pregnant, i lived with my parents. My mother was living with stage 4 cancer. i became pregnant out of wedlock. My parent's didn't accept my pregnancy. The baby's father is a heroin addict. After my child was born, I left my parents house to move up to where her dad resides. Now i lost my mother , i can't get on my feet & my babys father is a hard heroin user. I don't know , what to do???? There is so much more to my story!!! I live from house to house. I try to get a job, but he won't get to take me. Where do i go? What do i do with him???
Who will look after your baby if you got a job?
You partner has had 9 months and more to get off heroin and become a good father. It's your decission, your baby or him.
Your father might be the person to turn to. I don't know how your relationship with him is, but he has a grandchild, like it or not.
Your baby comes first, do what is best for her.
I have lost a few close family members from addictions and am an alcoholic myself.. Almost three months sober.. It was hard to do but well worth it.. Your man needs to buck up.. He either will or he will end up dead and alone.. but you need to keep your daughter well away from him and find away out of your slump.. you need determination and will power.. take the baby steps needed.. keep your child safe... and yourself... pray.. pray... pray..
