She stared at the stick in horror, “surprise, I’m pregnant,” she thought to herself. This wouldn’t be so utterly horrifying if she hadn’t just ended her 2-year engagement. Oh god, this is going to tie me to the cheating liar for the next 18 years … no for a lifetime … oh geez, I will never be free of him … my poor baby is going to be saddled with this loser as a dad, wait, my baby … my baby!!! I’m having a baby!!! Don’t worry sweetie, she said talking to her fetus, we are going to be just fine!

I like her quick recovery...one of the best traits in a good mom.

You are a terrific writer! Love this alot! Enjoy the weekend! Anne
I'm with Sue. The turnaround was the perfect maternal thing to do. Really nice writing.
I suspect that the cheater will not want to own up, so she had better collect a little dna before she gives him the news.
Jo, you are sooo maternal!!

Excellent job !
The heart of a true mother will always focus her love and energies on her child....and deal with the Ex as little as possible !!!
Bummer. I'd set some rules down. Or maybe not even tell him at all if he is that stinkin bad. ~Ames
great story
maybe the sorry excuse of a fiance will run off and be a deadbeat dad. Then she wouldn't have to worry. I know, I know. that is the wrong feeling.
Great post.
Oh this was really good! Life is stranger than fiction sometimes too, you just never know...what may happen.
I love the hope instilled in this little story. She is going to be a Bomb of a Mom!

I enjoyed this. It provided a whole range of emotions!
So many women go through similar tales, I admire those strong woman that make it work!
loved it. You captured the true feeling of a mother when she wants to protect her tot from all the meanness in the world.
You have conveyed the various emotions in such trying circumstances fantastically....
Yikes! Glad she pulled herself up and decided to make the best of a bad situation. Good job. laurie @ Battling My Inner Critic
Dear Jo,
Good writing here! She discovered that she did not even have to tell the guy... She can do it on her on own.
