I Dont Know What to Do Posted: 12-04-03 17:21pm
I always wanted to have a baby but I knew
that I was to young now that I am pregnant
I don't know how i'm going to support
myself and the baby the father (my
boyfriend) I know is going to do all he
can to help but it's not enough. He was
thinking about going into the army because
they great insurance coverege but I don't
want him in 10 state away while i'm giving
birth is it bad to want to have him
around? He is my best support. He loves
the baby just as much as I do. He even
sleeps with my stomach. Stephanie

Ok well I just got done telling jordan
this but how old are you? What you can do
when you if you are not living at home is
apply for food stamps. Its helps alot.
Also apply at wic. They give necessities
you need now such as milk, penut butter,
eggs, cereal and things like that. Thats
all you can do for now for some help.
Maybe you should get a job to save until
you are about 7 months. And have your
boyfriend to work too, since you have him
there. It wont be no walk in the park
financially but you need something for now
to save up. Welcome to the forum. Im
nikki.

Hey sweetheart I have a friend from
backhome and she was 17 last yr. And
pregnant she was dating a guy in the navy
and she ended up marrying him so they
could get the benifits from the navy and
moved to where he was based at...Im not
soo sure about ur situation tho b/c I
really dont kno urs that well but there
are sooo many programs out there for u
like wic and food stamps and if u are
really low on money they might have a
crisis pregnancy center where u are at and
they can give u maternity clothes u could
go to like salvation army and see if tehy
have and nice ones there or if u were to
get a job get one at like walmart or kmart
or something so u could get a discount on
baby stuff u can do it were all here for u
hang in there!!!Much love adn god
bless!!

Its not wrong at all to want your guy
around, especially when your having a
baby. But right now the top priority is
your baby to be. Your its mother rihgt
now, and its totally dependent of you even
if its not born yet. If ur guy living
ten states away is what it takes to give
the baby the life it deserves, then maybe
thats what it takes. I understand what
your saying, I always dreamed of having a
baby young but when I had my own (im 16)
it was kind of shocking. I had second
thoughts during hte pregnancy, but now I
couldnt be happier. If support is what
your looking for, join a support group in
or around your town, or even online
support groups. I hope I helped.
