dear roopa,
you appear to be a gutsy person. congrats to you and your little girl.
this forum, is ofcourse, female friendly, particularly so, with respect to a single parent. atleast i for am, and i am quite sure, there are a few others, here of a knowledgeable kind, who would be able to answer any ritual related queries.
it is unfortunate, that both your husband and your own family do not wish to communicate with you. hopefully time heals, atleast from your own parents.
take care..
God Bless.
