bad home enviroment
Im currently 12 weeks pregnant.. my boyfriend isnt being emotionaly supporitve at all and sits and talks me down all day along with pushes me arpund... Im lost with what to do because i cant afford to live on my own and scared that the stress will hurt my baby. what would other moms(moms-2-b) recomend?
I was in a similar situation with my first cried all the time because he abused me and wasn't nice to me at all. My son now has a disability due to what his father did to me while I was pregnant. I would leave asap. Move back in with family. I would hate for you or anyone to have the same situation as me.

Hi there. I'm sorry to hear this. If he kicked you out, where would you go? That's where you should go now. I know that is really hard but I hate to think of someone pushing you around. Those situations often get worse and the pushing around gets into shoving and hurting and other things that I don't want to happen to you. I think what they are talking about above is government assistance. I hate to see anyone go down that road but if it is your only option to survive, it's a good choice. It's there to help when you need it. This is welfare, public housing options, etc. If that is your only way to live right now without him then it would be worth it. You then can think of a more long term plan to get yourself on more stable ground. Things like job training or college are essential in today's world to make an income to support oneself sufficiently. They have all sorts of grants to pay for it when income is limited. SO WORTH it. Example, paralegal. This is a program that you can go part time (classes are usually 2 times a week for 3 hours in the morning, afternoon or night--- whichever suits you and childcare) and it takes about a year and a half, costs roughly 6,000 dollars but remember grants can pay for some or all of this and in the end, you have a usable program/degree that can get you a job paying 45,000 to 60,000 a year. I looked into this myself!
As a woman, you have to get yourself in a position to take care of yourself because as you are finding, you can not always count on men.
Seek out somewhere else to live. A friend, cousin, even a stranger just looking for someone to rent a room. And then get yourself to school so you never have to be in this position again. good luck hon
