Advice

Im 22 years old and 7 weeks prregnant with my first child. I found out through a local clinic 2 weeks ago and even had my first u/s through them but I work 45-55 hrs a week as a manager and although I make the schedules working around my team's availibility I usually dont get off work until about 5pm and my days off are usually weekends... Dont sound like a problem? I still dont have insurance because I need to go get medicade through the state because I didnt plan for this and only have vision through work. Any advise on what to do because I know I really need to scheduale an apt ... Im a little paranoid because ive had ovarian cysts for years and im ann RH negative myself...

I work a minimum of 50-60 hours a week, and have since before I was pregnant, it's just the nature of my job. I usually work Monday - Friday; then Sundays are usually workdays for me as well though I usually work from home that day. I doubt I'll be able to stop after the baby's here, especially since I'm becoming a single mom. It's tough at times both physically and mentally, but 6 months now and my baby's doing fine, just rest when you can and try to stay healthy.

Most appointments don't start till around the 12 weekark so I wouldn't worry too much. Don't u have breaks at work when you can apply online?. As long as you've had no bleeding then being a negative blood type isn't an issue but you may want the injection later on.

In most places you can apply for medicaid online if you work too much to get into an office to apply.
