help :(

im from the philippines. about to give birth in two months time and i dont have the money to pay for the hospital bills. cant even buy stuff for my baby. hell i cant even pay the rent. im so desperate. ive been crying nonstop. im so deppressed i dont know what to do. i dont even have someone to talk to. i dont know what to do with my life anymore  

Are you living in the Phillipines? Or do you live in the US? If you live in the US, you can get Medicaid & WIC. Plus, it sounds like you're extremely depressed, so you should def let your ob know ASAP!

There is sooo much help out there. Are you here in the US? And if so what state? You will be ok. Things work out And your baby won't be with out.

im here in the philippines right now. we're not covered by an insurance here so we need to pay the hospital in cash. i've been trying to ignore my problem for the longest time but with 2 weeks to go i dont really get to neglect it. i love my baby. i want to see him. im so excited to be with him. i want to provide for him. i... just... dont know what to do right now...

I'm unfamiliar with what options you've got over there but I think you should def look into seeing what options are available to you & your baby ASAP. Finances are a normal concern for all of us parent-to-bes. Just have to do whatever you have to do to provide.

Do they make you pay up front? And if you don't have it would they deny yo u care?

i tried getting a loan 3 times but was denied. im just lost right now.

yes you have to pay up front. i dont even have the clothes or any baby stuff for my son. he's my first baby and i cant believe im in this state right now. ive always wanted to have a family and this is not how i've pictured it. basically i dont have anyone to talk to hence i opted to post here. at least i'd have someone to confide to.how i wish im rich. no scrap that. i just wish i have the money for my baby. that'll be more than enough.

Quoting nxane:" i tried getting a loan 3 times but was denied. im just lost right now."

they dont have any type of free medical you can get on fromthe state/?

Have you posted before with a different username? I remember a girl from the philippines asking for help also some months ago

apparently im not qualified for the free medical. they said you have to have a minimum salary. i have a salary, its a tad higher than the minimum but it cant even pay all my bills. ive been struggling for quite some time now, see i can do this if i dont have a baby. i can skip a meal or two, doesnt matter. im a big girl. but with my baby coming, things will definitely have to change. right now what im worried the most is the medical expenses i'd have to pay.

nope. this is my first time to register on this site. i've been checking out this website for quite some time now but i've only visited the pregnancy calendar so as to monitor my baby's progress.

one thing im happy about is my baby's health. he's been kicking and playing nonstop in my tummy so i guess he's happy. i had a dream about him and he was the cutest little thing. i can't wait to see him.

I can't believe they deny healthcare for your inability to pay. I'm in wa state and all pregnant woman get covered on pregnancy Medicaid and the hospitals will treat you if you can't pay and will bill u later if you have no insurance. There is gotta be some kind of help there. Is there social services there? If so they can't point u in the direction you need to get what you need for your baby. Did around and ask around. I'm sure there's gotta be some help out there for you. Like a pregnancy resorce center.... something

they can provide financial aid but unfortunately, im not qualified. i've tried searching for all means but came up with none. im so desperate. i pity myself for being in this situation. my baby definitely deserves better. i was actually in the office this morning but i went home early since all i can think of is my baby and i've been crying the whole time. its not like i can get anything done at my state so i just went home and cried myself to sleep. i just pray that God would help me and my little angel. im naming him alfonse javier. alfonse.. mommy loves you..
