Get the terms of child support...IN WRITING. Make sure the check is in the mail by a specific date every month. .
Try to remember one thing...PLEASE?
Nobody can FORCE a man to be a good husband, father or S.O. to ANYBODY!
It's obvious that your "not-so-devoted" boyfriend wants his space. So what's wrong with making him pay for it?

I agree. Its unfortunate that he couldnt have decided upon this before your child was brought into this world, but I beleive things happen for a reason. If he thinks that it is a good idea to have "space"....commonly reffered to this by people who have no other way to end things, then I would consult a lawyer and any other local groups that will help you stay on your feet. Churches, the red cross, and other such groups offer services to single moms....take advantage of them.
If housing is a problem, check into your local section eight housing and sign up for the waiting list. This is an organization that assists low income and disabled persons with rent.
IN th emeantime, take deep breaths and know that oyu have freinds here that support you in all you do.
My thoughts are with you and your baby....
