Hello all. My name is Ashley. I'm a single dad to my 3 month old son, Lucian Jude. His mum left when he was two weeks old, so now it's just the two of us. We live in london. I'm very new to being a dad and new here so this is just my general hello.

Hi Ashley,

Being a new parent is tough enough; I'm so sorry you have to do it alone!! Do you have family nearby who can help, or at least sympathize??

I'm glad you found us!! This is a great place for advice and a laugh. And there are one or two other dads here.

I'm Alice from New York, married to Peter and mom of my 3 kids. Today is my daughter's 5th birthday party.

Oops-- gotta go!

Hi Ashley!

I am Mel and Mom to a whole bunch of kids..lol
Brittany Justin Tiffany and Tanner

And wife to Randy for 7 years

I would like to incourage you and tell you that I am proud of you raising your son. It is hard to be a single parent regardless of gender..But I have a special heart for single dad, since I was raised soley by my father since I was around 6 months old. And I turned out ok..

And this was 30 something years ago, when you never seen this, when there were no changing tables in the men's restroom. I can remember standing outside a womens restroom maybe 3 yrs old and my Dad waiting until a nice lady walked by so he could ask her to help me..I would always pee my pants..lol No wonder!

But I think you embarking on a great adventure of love..Congrats on your son
