I had no where else to go and I just showed up cuz she wouldn’t answer and I was on the street. Now I’m here, she’s completely ignoring me. I’ve been asking for prenatals for a week, and she’s gone to...

My parter is always at work and all my family & friends are at work too. I feel so lonely and even though they all offer support, it’s hard for them to do it when they are all working. I don’t have any friends who are at the same stage as me so I have no one to talk to or hang out with who’s also had a baby. Some ...
