Hey! Have you looked into wic and Medicaid on your state?

Step one: health department for appointments with pregnancy center
Step two: positive test- pregnancy confirmation at pregnancy center
Step 3: wic appt
Step 4: apply for medicaid
Step 5: Continue going to the pregnancy center bc they give out carseats, breast pumps, highchairs, diapers, clothes etc

Do you qualify for medicaid? It paid for my whole pregnancy. Im 20 and i ran away at 17. I finally just now have an apartment with my husband. We had been homeless/ couch hopped during my pregnancy. But passport paid for all my visits and medications. I paid $0 for my hospital bill when my son was born , he stayed in the nicu for a week. I wouldve paid 24k if i didnt have passport.

Are we all making out with our friends?

I’m just gonna jump straight to the point lol. I want to find friends I can makeout with. Girl friends. I’m in a loveless marriage I don’t want to get a divorce but I’m literally dying inside without someone to pour my cuddling and kissing needs into. I guess I just want to know if there’s any other moms out there that have successfully found a deep friendship with another woman that they were able to bring to the next level without actually having sex.

Leaving work fo become a SAHM

My son has seizures, he's not diagnosed with anything, not yet atleast, any time he gets a fever he has a seizure, I know it's "common" febrile seizures happen but he's had two just Sunday.

Now I'm debating, I want to move out of my family home, get into social assistance, and stay home while my son's at daycare to ensure I'm around any time, might even give me time for hobbies. But leaving work is too hard,

Last time I left 10 minutes into my shift, got a call saying my son fell and was unresponsive, found out he had a seizure, I came back to work and a guy spread to everyone saying I had lied to get out of work, that I should be demoted.

Male low sex drive?

Anyone got a male partner with low sex drive? Feels very rare and lonely to navigate as men usually are these horny rabbits.

Just wondering if anyone has any experience or advise with this?

I am currently pregnant and our relationship has been on the rocks but the sex life has been poor for a few years.
