Re: Hey GLP family, need some help. Girlfriend might be pregnant. UPDATE: confirmed!
I gave you phone numbers and addresses of the DHS in IL. They are the agency that provides ILMED (Medicaid insurance to people who are on welfare, can't afford insurance, or people who simply have no other option). Do not be afraid, ashamed or anything. The health and wellbeing of a baby is more important then pride.

I had to use Medicaid once and I had a great experience. I have friends who have used Illinois Medicaid and they will never turn a pregnant woman away unless you financially sufficient to do so.

Be thankful the Creator (Whomever you deem God to be) bestowed the gift of Life onto you. You are lucky. There are people all over the world, with lots of money, stability, everything, and they are infertile, and have failed attempt after attempt to try to have a baby with technology and cannot. I know this, because I work in Healthcare.

You can do this. You have to be the strong one and you will be. Now go and do what a father should do and help, guide, and protect your family.

God Bless!

Yes I saw that, thank you very much.

Just wanted to get some ideas going so when we do the test tomorrow if it's positive I can tell her some things to reassure her.

re. antenatal nutrition:

check out WAPF and paleo principles for the best basics.. search for breastfeeding and pregnancy terms all over their website. totally priceless information there.

most important for your wife to be relaxed and positive for her pregnancy. stress will do no favors for your baby.
if i can suggest 1 thing: when you can afford it, be sure to gift her a couple of pregnancy salon sessions ~ she will feel loved.
2. don't forget to wish her Happy Mother's Day when she's pregnant :)

i hope you have so much fun :) bonding with your growing family naww :)

if this goes the other way, it's been a great opportunity to nut some things out. food for thought huh :)

all the best!
take care :)

oh and if your gf hangs out online, www.mothering.com is a brilliant forum.

No, no, no. OP, children are a blessing and God will bless
you and the baby's mother. What if your own mother followed
the above advise?

Re: Hey GLP family, need some help. Girlfriend might be pregnant. UPDATE: confirmed!
Charlie, congrats on your new job and family. first things first, get your gf to a doctor as soon as possible, there can be many reasons why your gf is late ok? If you two are blessed with this child the very next thing is to apply for Medicaid for the health of the mother and child. Its ok to be scared all new parents are. The only advice I would follow is that of your parents and doctor cuz they are the only ones that have your best interest and knowledge of what you are going through. Sit down with your girl and talk this through. Having children born into poverty does not mean that is the way it will be for your kids. When my husband left me with our daughter I was left with raising a 3 yr old and didn't have a job, fast forward 16 yrs later when my daughter graduated high school and went on to college which she paid for herself. She graduated college when she was 22 with a masters and a bachelor degree. She now works for Goodyear ( the aviation division)is a manager and makes fantastic money has traveled the world and is soon to be married. So anyone who tells you that you have doomed this child to poverty is plain lying. Its all in your attitude and love conquers all.
good luck to both of you keep us posted.

Baby Mommy can bring in a whole lot more Free Stuff without Baby Daddy gumming up the works with Marriage'n'Shit

She can get a place in da Projects, WIC, food stamps, Medicaid etc etc etc.

Baby Daddy can visit. So can all the Youths on da Projects.

Baby Daddy becomes obsolete.

Baby can grow up in da Projects and learn to Count to Potato in da Public Schools.


And grow up to make the same mistakes.

Or the kid could have decent shot at life by way of adoption.

Former social worker here, seen it thousands of times

Absolutely ZERO magic goes on with unplanned welfare pregnancy.

Lots of misery and wasted opportunity, that and not much else
 Quoting: goodmockingbird


Wow negative much? Unfortunately you have seen the bad and obviously never the good. I am a proud person and was laid off with no insurance when I got pregnant with my daughter I cried when I applied for Medicaid but needed to get to a doctor. Before I had my daughter I had a new job and insurance. Me and my husband have a huge happy family and are currently self sufficient he works as do I and that is the only time I took any handouts. Btw canceling Medicaid is near impossible. My point is sometimes things dont turn out for the worse. We learn and are blessed with amazing things we never thought possible.
 Quoting: erin136


Negative? Try REALISTIC.

Your cases is far, far from typical.

Points being, you were laid off, as in 'you had worked' before. And you had a concience, that is you felt reasonable shame over signing up for medicaid.

You had standards of ethics to go back to.

When my wife told me she was pregnant, I used our last money to buy a bottle of champagne.

She was 19, I was 21.

Now almost 34 years and 4 kids later, we know that our first child was just the “Kick in the butt” that I needed at the time.

Tell your Girl how much you love her, that you will take care of her whatever happens.

Get your arse in gear and be proud man.banana2

Re: Hey GLP family, need some help. Girlfriend might be pregnant. UPDATE: confirmed!
So obviously this wasn't planned and is not coming at a great time. Have fallen in hard times and was in the process of trying to start building my life back up. This is going to be a severe bump in the road.

It's not confirmed yet, we are going to take a test tomorrow but she is pretty late and both of us have a feeling she is. How it happened is a moot point so please don't ask. Neither of us like the idea of abortion and I can't help but feel that it would destroy our relationship.

What I need help with is some ideas on where to start looking for assistance. What kinds of assistance are available. Any and all ideas are welcome.

I don't ask for a lot from my GLP family, and most who know me will know I often offer advice when I was more active. I had my computer break a few months back and have pretty much just stuck to lurking around on my phone.

For reference to assistance available we live in lake county Illinois.

I have to go somewhere pretty soon here so I might not be here right away to answer any follow ups. Will be back and bumping this later. I really need help here guys, don't even know where to start looking.

Also taking green karma so I can get a member upgrade to use the email features.

Thank you GLP!

LoL! What a ^^ coward^^.

I never once took my wife to a doctor and we have the best health insurance money can buy. Having a baby is NOT an emergency. We had our three kids right at home in a kiddie swimming pool. My wife hired a doola or whatever she was.

Just wanted to add that my brother and his wife had their baby at home in a kiddie pool with a doula too...everyone thought it was a wonderful experience and the baby was so calm. He's almost a year old now and I've only heard him cry twice...

Also my brother didn't have insurance at the time and didn't want to be on the government tit so it was less expensive to have the baby at home. Not to mention less germy...

If the test is positive, look into a doula and home birth. IMO it is better...

Sending positive vibes your way my friend :)

First, if she is pregnant you need to marry her, your child needs a mother and a father in the home together,
second, trust in Jesus Christ and make God part of everyday life. this will open up a whole new world for the three of you.

When I found out my girl was pregnant after two months, I got to work. Wasn't easy in the beginning and it certainly wasn't pretty but it made us stronger. I was lucky enough to have a decent job but it meant about the same hours as working 2 jobs. If you have two feet and a heartbeat, I don't see what the problem is.


If for some reason you luck out, take it as a warning and smarten up. Wrap that thing ffs.

oopla *please be wary of infant formula! do check the Weston Price site.. there's a recipe on there.. at least to give you some groundbreaking insight into baby nutrition.
if your wife is lucky enough to be able to stay home with your baby, breast-feeding is priceless. and economical :) my baby girl didn't start solids until around 11 months.. she was a beautiful little butter ball and i made her pudding from baby coconut as her first food. bargain! :)


you can save a bunch of money by cloth diapering. just nut out a good washing system and have plenty of spares. disposables will cost you a fortune in the long run. diaper swapping is pretty popular online.
