Okay so im having a BIG dilemma, I dont know if anyone can help but here goes, I am currently 12w +2d pregnant (this is my first pregnancy), I found out Jan 12th, applied for medicaid, they sent me prestige health choice plan. I made appt with my old gynecologist office that I went to years ago. They took my ins info and scheduled me an appt for 3 weeks away, at this time I was 5 weeks. So no biggie, the day before my appt. They called and said they dont take my ins plan, that i would need to change it to Amerigroup. I called medicaid and wasnt able to switch it for a month.. so meanwhile I went to Exodus. It was horrible. They treated me like shit. Just to let you know I am on several medications. I was seeing a psychiatrist for years when I found out I was pregnant, they had me on Lexapro, Valium and Ambien. I knew i shouldnt be taking those meds so I called my psychiatrist when i found out and they said they wont see me if im pregnant. WHAT!?! So i stopped the ambien and valium immediately, and tried to wean of lexapro. I started having severe panic attacks and horrible depression, Exodus would not give me ANYTHING , they would only refer me to another psychiatrist would couldnt get me in for months. Wtf? So after several horrible experiences with that office I was able to get my ins switched. I am also on a medication for opiate addiction called Subutex who a specialist has prescribed me for the past 3 years, he says it is safe for pregnancy and he actually helped me get on a safer antidepessant, switched my lexapro to celexa and gave me a prescription for buspar for my anxiety. Which im doing well with. However, i made appt for my old ob-gyn now that i had switched my ins. They requested the recorded from Exodus and canceled my appointment, said they would not see me due to me being "high risk" - according to them reviewing my records its because kf my meds. They didnt even see me!! Now i have tried calling every dr on my current insurance plan and no one will see me.. either because im high risk or past 12 weeks. I even called my insurance and they said call the hospital and the hospital just gave me a list of drs who dont take my insurance. I am so frustrated and scared and dont know what else to do. Can anyone give me any advice???? Please. Without judgement. Im in Tampa, Florida. Thanks in advance. Sorry so long of a post.
I would lie but ive already burned all my bridges, like everyone already knows, I called Planned parenthood and they dont do obgyn services, only conformation, which I already have. I have been crying for days, I feel helpless. I AM SO THANKFUL FOR your kind responses. 😢
That's a really huge bullshit ; they are not suppose to refuse you , I switched Obgyn's in the middle of my damn pregnancy because my bitch of a doctors office was just beyond horrible
Lie about your period! They track it and estimate how far along you are. I had a similar problem. No one wanted to see me because I was 4 months pregnant. I remember calling all the providers under my insurance and crying on my floor. I felt helpless.
Are you even able to make an appointment at Planned Parenthood?? I know in Michigan they accept Medicaid/Healthy Michigan. I'd call PP and figure out if they'll see you. I'd be so pissed about everything if I were, hell, I am pissed off for you. And I'm here if you want/need to talk. I've been in therapy and on meds for most of the last decade. @chamberser
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...
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.

A Statement from Mom.Life:
Hey everyone!
Last night, a new user began messaging our moms asking for private pictures of toddlers and young children. This is obviously unacceptable behavior, and the account was banned immediately. Although thankfully extremely rare on Mom.Life, several users were understandably upset by this, so we wanted to clarify a few things:
First off, Mom.Life has an absolute zero tolerance policy for child abuse and those who would prey on children. We strive to ...
Okay for all that followed my post.... I wasnt going to be able to get seen until May! But I went into the clinic and demanded to talk to a social worker who I explained my story and she came back with a appointment for me for March 31st! .. Thank God!
