4 Weeks pregnant can I survive

I guess now the question is where do I start preparing!

Maybe you could take prenatal vitamins and go to the clinic as you said you were going to.
You're in very early stage of pregnancy so take it easy and look after yourself (other mothers can advise you better what to do)
Best of luck

My gran is like that. She meant she isn't surprised because as far as she's concerned I am a bit of a free wild spirit.

Well - you won't be any longer if you have a child. The child will have to come first - AND the creditors will still expect their money back on time.

Having had a quick glance earlier at your other threads - you started one last year enquiring about single parents getting Council housing. Well - if you decide to go ahead being a single parent hoping for Council housing - have you checked out the state of your local Council's waiting list?

I don#t need council housing, I am a student.

And the reason for it last year was because I had left my partner who I had lived with for a long time and didn't have a period for 3 months and so thought I was pregnant and panicking. Last year was a bad year and to be frank I don't want to think about anything that I posted last year because to be honest, Iwas on the brink of being totally insane. Today I am a completely different person.

ALSO.......

I'm not 12...I'm fully aware that being a parent means you are responsible for another life. I may only be 21 nearly 22, but I AM grown up for my age due to the events of the past three years. I have had to grow up. I'm not a wild child, my grandma acknowledges the growth I have been through in the past year.

So....

So where are you going to live then.....? And who is going to take care of the baby if you are not able to get a place at the creche at college? What if you cannot afford a private nursery? Will you be relying totally on the state to support you and the baby?

Please stop finding problems, I'm sure that she's well aware that there will be all sorts of problems and concerns ahead. Howeverif everyone waited till the 'right' time when everything was sorted then no-one would ever have ababy

I had my daughter at 20, her Dad was 19, best decision I ever made, we grew up quick and got on with it (as I'm sure everyone has to) daughter is now 22 and at uni training to be a teacher two other daughters followed and still managing to stay happily married to their Dad.

You'll make the right decision for you with lots of help and support I hope.

Take care

The decision has been made by Abby and whether anyone else agrees with the path she has chosen is irrelevant.
I think we should now stop badgering her for answers to questions which are frankly not our business and stop adding our own stories to the mix.
She has logged off.
Good luck Abby, I wish you and your baby well.
