I need advice.

I’m currently in my 26 weeks of pregnancy, and I’m about to be a single mom. I have no work and my family’s financial capacity isn’t that great. My baby’s father offer some financial assistance but I’m hesitant to accept it. Because I would risk my peace of mind and mental health because of “utang na loob” and other words I would received from him and his family. We broke up due to a 3rd party issue and physical abuse. Should I accept their help? Please enlighten me. #firstbaby #advicepls

Hi Mommy! Isang mahigpit na yakap muna for you. You know what, I've been in your situation too. Sobrang gulo at first nung pregnancy journey ko din kasi unexpected. At first di agad namin natanggap ng partner ko(actually wala na at magulo na relationship namin nung nalaman ko na pregnant ako at nung sinabi ko skanya) Pero nung nagpacheck up na ako and pinakita sakanya ultrasound, naging okay and ayun dun nagstart lahat. Nagplano na nga din na mamanhikan. Kaso last Feb this year, di kami naging okay and he even told me na wala na talaga at suporta nalang bibigay nya. Wala din akong trabaho at wala din akong maaasahan sa family ko kasi ako yung bread winner. Sobrang sakit at guhong guho ako during that moment. Halos everyday akong umiiyak. Fast forward, naging okay kami and still working out our relationship and looking forward for our future family. I thank God kasi all I did was pray and still praying pa din. I know na hindi madali ang pinagdadaanan mo but ask for God's guidance as you make life decisions. If they insisted to give you assistance, then might as well accept it and responsibility din ng father ng baby mo to help you lalo na wala ka din source of income. Praying for you, mommy.
