I went for my regular prenatal appointment today and i just got bad news after bad news. So i failed my glucose test miserably. Should be 130-135 and mine was 168. Then he tells me im anemic and i need to take iron. But i cant take iron because it make me extremely sick and ive have not gained any weight thus far in this pregnancy. He also said i am not to return to work til after i deliver because i am extremely high risk due to these conditions and having a positive fetal fibronectin. I have been on bedrest for a week well as much as any woman can be with a husband that does nothing and 3 other kids under age 6. I feel like im gonna snap and i dont think i can handle anymore bad news. I need to be at work i need adult interaction and the money cuz i am the bread winner i have short term disability but it only pays 1200 a month so i would be losing 800 a month which i cant afford with my apartment and car. I am going tomorrow to apply for food stamps because i doubt we will have any money for food. Y me? I am so glad this is my last child i love him so much but this pregnancy has been more than i can bear. THanks for listening and sorry this was so long.

I am so sorry that you have to go through that, maybe is time your husband finds a way to bring home the money?? sending hugs your way and I hope that everything gets better soon.

That is when i had the ffn come out positive 2 was at 28 weeks. Im glad you have made to 33 weeks @Mrs4c. They want me to make to atleast 34 then they wont stop the preterm labor. But ideally they said 36 weeks. I wish i could spoil my kids but it seems that the more i am home with them doing everything the more irritated i get because i am so tired from having to do everything. My husband makes decent money but still 3 dollars an hour less than i make and that money definetly adds up.

I am sorry you are having such a hard time. I am also having a really hard time right now. I am so close to loosing it completely. I have been trying so hard but cant take much more.
