I'm not eating as much as I should be everyday because we struggle with food. Is my baby still going to grow and get…

You should get WIC if you can!

Wic. Food stamps. if you're struggling then you should get approved.

wic, food stamps you should apply! maybe try looking for food banks around your town! @babybunn

churches also help

I go to my wic appointment Tuesday so I hope they can help. My parents are struggling and can't even buy anything right now. It sucks. And my fiancé don't get paid till Thursday. I tried food stamps but have to work to get them and had a lot of papers to fill out that I didn't understand so I didn't get them done in time. I'll look around for food banks

If your pregnant you shouldn't have to work to get food stamps . I'm not sure if that's different by state, but in West Virginia if your pregnant or have a child that's not school age yet you can bypass that rule. So check into it (:

@babybunn, check out bountiful baskets it's a great program and super affordable for good nutritious food. I know other ladies have recommended WIC and food stamps but honestly those are government programs and WIC is a joke if u ask me how do they even call that a nutritional program. It lacks lots of nutrition but I know it's about the money for our gov. As for food stamps I have no clue how any work so obviously not speaking about that ladies. I'm sorry u going through a hard time if u wanna see examples of what u get in the basket u can scroll my post. I purchase biweekly bc my area but some are weekly. Also the add ons are awesome. It's all wonderful quality food for u and baby

@a.claypool13, in Michigan and in Ohio, pregnant or not, you have to work or be trying to find a job to get any type of assistance. The only exception to not working is when you're on maternity leave.

To answer your original question yes baby is probably growing just fine. I am 30 weeks and have HG which means I can't eat hardly anything without throwing it up. I have lost 25 lbs and haven't eaten anything with protein in it for almost the whole pregnancy. Baby girl is growing great because she is taking everything from me. Now that she is bigger and needs more and I am still unable to eat they are putting me on TPN, which is liquid calories and nutrients though my veins, because if they don't baby will start to take from my teeth and muscle tissue. That being said definitely try everything the ladies above are suggesting because it is very important that you feed your self and baby especially the further along you get but try not to worry about baby too much at this point. Especially if your doctor isn't worried yet. They are so strong in there and will take what they need from you! ❤️ I will be praying for you. I really hope it all works out and you are able to get the help you need!

Thank you ladies. Means a lot.
