Hi All,

just found this site. I found out a few days ago i’m pregnant and while i’m happy about it I can’t really get excited as i’ve recently been laid off and money is non-existant, not sure if a baby is something i can afford with my partner.

Also,if anyone can tell me what i’m to do next?! I went to my doc and all he said was that if i got 2 positives I must be pregnant and to take folic acid.. and to come back to him at 12wks for a referal to a obgyn.. the whole thing took 2 mins and i still don’t know what i’m to be doing in the meantime..?! I’m cramping a little and i’m not even sure if this is normal.

Thanks for anyone who can shed some light!!
