He makes around 2,000 gross but brings home 16,00, sometimes less.
That leaves us with around 60 for the whole week. We onky get 82 in food stamps. which helps but it sucks. I love wic though. Thank god for that too.

What about an unassisted home birth? You'll be fine. Trust yourself/body. Women are MADE to give birth and to do what God created. Don't fear the whole hospital/doctor thing...it's overrated anyways.

People birth breeched babies ALL THE TIME at home. It's perfectly safe.   If I were you I'd have her at home "on accident". I plan on doing this with the second one...

I had a safe birth with the first. I'm not afraid of going for something different next time  

In any case, I want you to trust yourself and your body, even though you're "over due". She knows when it's time to come out so just be patient and tell those doctors to leave you alone until she's ready   good luck.

My dates really couldve been off with her. So i really shouldnt be freaking out about being overdue. I guess since everyone is asking me everyday if i had the baby or if my doctor is going to induce me. lol
