32 weeks, I can't afford my baby.
My husband used to have a fantastic paying job. I have a 10 yr old and 8 year old and wasn't planning on having any more children. I'm 30 years old. My husband lost his job last year, in May, and has health, and mental health issues now and he won't work(he is seeing a Dr and is on medications). I was working and providing until BC failed and I was shocked to find out I was pregnant. I have horrific HG pregnancies and immediately cried my eyes out and considered abortion. How could I provide if I'm deathly ill for 40 weeks?? So I worked as long as I could but, Well I'm now 32 weeks, I obviously couldn't make myself abort my precious child. I am due in 8 weeks and we have no money. We are blessed though to have had help from family paying lot rent this past couple months on our trailer and electricity. We have already lost so much... our beautiful house, many of our belongings when we downsized to this old trailer that we bought with our equity. My poor children and sick husband... I don't know what to do and feel like an absolute failure and horrible person for remaining pregnant. I will hopefully be able to recover from birth quickly and find a job immediately. Hopefully we can make it these next two months and keep a roof over our heads. Please pray for me if you believe in praying. I'm not religious, but I do feel the comfort and support of loving thoughts and prayers. Bless each of you in your pregnancies with healthy babies and lots of love and support. Thank you for listening, I can't sleep due to the tremendous anxiety and worry. But I know this app has wonderful, kind women that will read my story. And that I'm not as alone tonight as I feel.
