Eating?

I posted a couple days ago about how I told my boyfriend he had to leave because of him using drugs and things.  I havent talked to him except one time yesterday to make sure he was giving me money for the cell phone bill.  Well, the thing is since all this has been going on I cant eat.  I try so hard because I know it isnt good for the baby for me not to eat.  I try things like toast and everything, but my stomach just starts hurting and I cant eat.  I have been drinking the drinkable yogurt things but I know that isnt enough at all.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  I know things will get better after awhile but I am just mad and hurting at the same time.

I just wanted to say I'm sorry you are going through such a hard time right now, especially during pregnancy.  I think as long as you are trying to get something down and are taking yourvitamin you should be okay.  Just remember to stay hydrated too.  I had really bad m/s, which I know is totally different than the stress you are going through, but I hardly kept anything down and couldn't eat much for most of my pregnancy, well into the 5th month for both rpegnancies and then it started again the last few months.  Both of my little ones were good sized and very healthy.  All you can do is try, also, I would talk to your Dr. about it if this continues, the stress is not good for you and you should be eating and caring for yourslef right now, they may be able to help you or at least give you some suggestions.  If anything, it will feel better for you to talk about it with them.  I hope it gets better, take care of yourself and your baby, you are both more important right now.

how many weeks are you? many people go months with severe morning sickness, and end up eating very little for that time, and their babies are ok. your baby will get the nutrients he or she needs from you. you will be the one who ends up losing in the end, but i am sure your body can handle this for a while before it becomes an issue. i think it's great that you can keep down the drinkable yogurts. it's certainly more nutritional than the white bread and plain pasta i ate for months. and keep taking your vitamin.

i am sorry you have to go through this, and i admire your strength greatly. i did not see you previous posts, so i don't know the details, but it sounds to me like you are a very strong woman who is doing the best she can for herself and her baby.

Man I feel so bad for you because I have been there with a BF using the drugs I told you.  I kinda forced myself to eat. Time heals all things but I know that doesn't help now.  Do something you may enjoy to get your mind of things.  Maybe go see some family get a support system.  I know my family helped me out a lot.

You can also try drinking ensure.  
I read your previous post and responded to it before.  I just wanted to tell you I'm proud of you for sticking to it.  It will be whats best for both you and the baby in the end.  You are young and have your whole life ahead of you.   You will find somone who loves you and the baby more than the addiction .   xxxxx

Thanks for your comments! Kris, thanks for being there too!  Its so nice to know that someone else went through a similar situation.  I just have so many things going through my head and my family say they understand, but they dont because either they dont have kids yet, or were married and didnt have to deal with it.  I talked to him last night to get some money and stuff which I think it made me feel better because we talked about our baby and us.  I am just really scared to do it on my own, well my family is totally supporting me and helping, but doing it on my own as not having the father there helping at all.  He said he will but who knows what these drugs will do!  Thanks for being there, hope you are doing good!

You know I still have a hard time here and there.  One good thing for you is that your getting money.  I am fighting for that now and have lost all support from him helping me with medical bills.  It will resort to forcing him to pay back and I got everything I need.  You will be ok, it just hurts right now.  It sucks that drugs cause all this ****.  People get so attached to it, they have a hard time letting it go and sometimes it take the law to do it.  One day he may be pulled over and then it's court and jail.  They don't see that - i call the law intervention.  I hope it doesn't happen to him because it is way worse getting caught with coke then it is a little bit of pot - not saying one is better then the other - just different in eye of law - one is a felony and the other isn't.  Maybe remember him of this if you guys are talking about it.  Hard to get a job sometime with a felony.  I tryed this but it didn't work - at least you can still talk some.  I had to walk away all togeather.  Now I have to wait till the baby is born to get something from him - he will see the side of the law and he will go to jail if he doesn't help me.  In the end he loses for using and being the way he is.  Hope your BF comes around and realizes how wonder it is he has the gift of a child and you too - i hope he stops.
