i have my first wic appointment this month. I really hope we get help. We were denied food stamps, they said Taylor made too much. We are able to spend $80-$100 for two weeks of food. That includes diapers, formula, etc. I'm also pregnant. I'm so nervous. I can't afford a sitter, my free sitter's dog bit my child. So we can't leave her there. I don't know what to do. :( I'm so tired of struggling. My SO works his ass off and between child support and collections, we are just scraping by. It's putting a lot of stress on our relationship. I had a friend that received $700 for food stamps. She lied her ass off and said her and her boyfriend broke up so he wasn't living there or they were making separate meals. That seems to be the only way to get help, lie your ass off or not work at all. Ugh. I'm so frustrated.

You could always search for local food pantries in your area. My mom used to go to them a lot when we were younger since she was raising 3 kids by herself and only worked at a call center we had some lean years. Don't worry hun, things will get better 💛
WIC is much easier to get than food stamps. We made $1200 a month and still qualified. If you're going alone, bring a note written by him breaking down what he makes and what you have after bills and other necessary expenses and pay stubs showing his income.
I know this is supposed to be a temporary thing, but it seems you can only survive if you don't do shit. Once you try and get out if the hole they drop you. Maybe a program to help families get on their feet instead of holding them back.
Happened to us. When my husband wasn't working we got over $500 in food stamps then we he was barley making anything to pay the bills we got 96$
We don't want to lie either. I'll check it out. I was told to try for food stamps again since I'm pregnant. We may need to find a church with food baskets..
im sorry! we also got denied foodstamps but we do get wic. check out the income guidelines for ur state via Google for a bit of stress relief. and i agree.. the only way to get help is LIE or be poor as hell.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️
thanks! Should I call local churches?
