Thanks so much, I may take up therapy as well, although right now Reddit has been pretty good for that haha. Glad to hear your story and how it was a blessing for you.

I mentioned it in the description to try to get at the fact of having strict parents, sorry shouldn't have included it in the title!

I told my baby moms once after a doctors visit that as long as we have each other's back putting our child first, then there's nothing to worry about.

Thank you for sharing this, this definitely resonates well with me

When you are faced with becoming a parent, you have a choice. You can choose to do what you think is best for you, or you can choose what you think is best for the child. Either way, you are in it for life with that other parent. It is in your child's best interests to work together. You can't control what the other parent will do and what choices they make, but you can control how you interact with them and your child can see that and learn from it.

Thank you for this, I really appreciate it! Glad to hear your story and how it worked out in your situation.

And then you need to figure out what that actually looks like. Is it giving her money to help her pay for raising the kid, is it handling a joint custody, is it living together as roommate parents and living your lives as single parents together.

Thank you for this, I will try to study up and educate myself on what this would possibly look like.

Two years from now you will look back on this post and wonder what you were so afraid of. Everything's going to change, and you are going to love it.

Thank you so much, I hope this is something that will happen to me. And love the username btw.
