We are all broke just about but I hope things get better for you.  There are progams for people who are low income and pregnant have you signed up for WIC I believe this is a Federal progam so it doesn't matter what state you are in, usually you can sign up at your local health department or sometimes they have there own office.  While you are pregnant they help with food for you like Milk cheese and stuff after the baby is born if you don't breast feed they help with formula if you do breast feed you get the same as when you are pregnant and you get this until the child reaches 5 years old its a good progam when I was a baby my mom got it thats why I am a male and know about it.  You can also get medical help through social services for pregnant women sot try these if you are not on them I hope this helps.

Yep I have been there and i'm still there lol. There are programs like WIC (like the other poster said) and food stamps, aswelll as section 8. They can help you with shelter and food and your bills. There are special programs for pregnant women. I was on WIC and received my medical thru the state. So they paid for all my medical bills associated with my pregnacy. And they will even cover your child after you have him/her. They also make sure that your having a baby shower if not they help you get cloths, bassinet, etc for the baby. Dont feel down! Things well get better even tho it may not seem like it now. Take care!  :wave:

Having a baby is a responsibility and a choice (in most instances). Having a baby takes planning and consideration. If you are broke or don't have any income then don't have a kid. It is that simple. It is not fair for the rest of the country to pay for your baby by providing welfare and financial assistance. 
There is plenty of assistance to provide birth control supplies to those that are low income so that is no excuse. Not only are you suffering but you bring a child into the world that will also suffer because you couldn't pay for their needs. I feel sorry for kids brought up in this situation.

If they even have a spouse and not a sperm donor that skipped out when they found out they were pregnant.  Let's hope that's not the case.  However, love don't buy no diapers or put food in the baby's stomach. Love don't pay for delivery or doctors visits or cribs and bottles.
