    Don't go back to him you will get through this..Have you tried applying for healthy start vouchers? I don't know if you are entitled but its worth a try and would at least pay for milk for baby.
    Be carefull to don't give anyone your personal details, keep your chin up and get yourself back down to that M.P and request help ASAP
    Try and keep us updated on how you get along too :) xx

    There are lovely people on the forum, and I agree that it will get sorted. OP you are doing well to muddle through. Just a gentle reminder to be careful when arranging meets, bearing in mind others may be viewing the thread as well as the kindly donor, and as you will most likely have your children with you, you will be in a vulnerable position.

    Totally agree with you...OP i can't tell you what to do but be really carefull and make sure you keep your self and your children safe :) xx

    You going anywhere near Liverpool on the way mate? I can help a bit, but I've no car to get to Mancs. I'm in in the morning.

    I'm in St. Helens. No offence, but I am unsure of taking a stranger with me. That's the reason I am arranging to meet the OP in a public place, so that neither of us are put at risk.

    Gosh, that sounds dreadful, as though you are not a good person Rocketman80. I don't mean that at all. It's just that I don't know you. Please don't be offended.

    If you are this side of Liverpool, I might be able to pick something up from you to give to the OP.

    OP, you have gone offline now. I have no idea whether you will be around tomorrow morning, what time to meet you if you are, or how to recognise you. Please pm me otherwise I won't be able to come. I've got three carier bags of food sorted out for you if you want them - pasta, tuna, beans, potatoes, biscuits, etc. It should keep you going for a few days.

    I have a brand new tin of SMA baby milk I am happy to send to the OP, PM me OP if you would like it.

    I do hope this post is all genuine. Call me cynical but there are some really great people on here offering help.
