Venting

Just want this whole thing to be over! Life for me hasn't been any better since I became pregnant. I haven't even seen a Dr. yet cause this Medicaid is taking forever. My family hasn't been supportive even I live on my own. Working 22hrs week isn't cutting it. My bf can't really help me financially cause he has more bills then me & we don't live together & he's still taking care of his unappreciative 18 year old sister who has a job but relys on him. My car insurance is overdue. It's been like 4 months since I've had an oil change & need one asap. Sooner or later my car is gonna die on me. I have to choose between gas in my car or food in my stomach. & gas always wins cause I have to get to work. Ugh the list goes on. I could just die now

Take a deep breath! Food and proper prenatal take precedent. Alot of places will see you while your waiting for Medicaid. You need to call around and askm
How old are you? You may qualify for WIC or some other state aide to help you out.
Ask BF to put a couple of quarts of oil in car or give you $20 for oil change.

Go to your local dhr office get on food stamps that'll be enough to cover food for you to make it last find a store that does meat bundles invest in baggies and split the meat up it will last you a month next only get sides like veggies stuff of that sort those will be your meals go to your local health department get wic that will cover juice eggs cheese bread milk fresh fruit and veggies and other stuff so that's even more food.. next check put aside 20-40$ that will cover the basic oil change in most states without them doing extra stuff. For personal shop at dollar tree everything a dollar. Very affordable and every pay week set aside a certain amount for insurance and gas all you need is liability insurance that baby will be here before you know it good luck I hope I helped this is how me and my husband survive month to month just learn to breath take day by day it'll be okay

I already have the WIC thing but they only provide so much food. Most of which I don't like or eat or have to cook. & where I live the lady won't let me use her stove or else she'll up my rent by $150. So I have to buy food. I'm 20 years old. I can't take the bus to my job cause I work at 5 a.m. by the beach there's no bus at that time & no bus goes there. And please tell me how I can see an OBGYN & not pay.
