Aw sweetie, depression is common during pregnancy and it makes it even harder when the people you want around yuo are not around. My mom never saw me pregnant and has still not met my son who is almost 3 1/2months old now. She lives on the other side of the ocuntry and is ill so it is hard for her to travel. I know here, they have baby/mama pre-natal classes, where you learn excercises, cooking etcc... It just helps to meet other preggos too. Find out if they have somethign like that inyour area. Will your mom be out of jail before the baby comes?? As for your bf, is there a way you can contact someone to find out if he is safe? Keep coming here too, it can be a great place for support.

I dont really know what to say except I am here for you if you need someone to talk to. I know what its like not to have support while being pregnant. When I was younger I got pregnant and lost the baby all by myself. So really hunny if you will keep coming here you will have all of our support.

Well at least you know your bf is safe! And you can even phone places like your local community centre or city to find out about any prenatal classes.

Another thing if you can't get into prenatal classes yet you could always join a church if you want. You make some freinds that way too. Its a good place normally they have services on wed. And sundays so 2 days a week being around other ppl makes you feel less lonely too. Plus it has a way of up lifting your spirt and makes you feel better about your self. I know I hated chuch when I was a teen, loved it as a child and just now started taking my kids on wed. And I go everyonce in a while. I still read the bible and everything I just got preached at as a kid so its kinda hard for me to sit and listen to a preacher though I do enjoy it. Sometimes I wish I could join my kids in their classes.
