What should I do at this point
So I was staying with my brother and his bm and he put me and my child’s father out on the 18th in 15 degree Weather which caused me to go into labor at 35 weeks and I had my baby yesterday on the 20th . I’ve already been looking for maternity homes or just shelters but literally everyone is full I just don’t know wat to do anymore 🤦🏾♀️ it’s making me very depressed but I do know a family member that fosters children and I’ve been thinking about taking my newborn there till I can get my apartment from section 8 11 I’m just wondering if it’s a good idea because I do want to get a job aswell to try to help out I’m just trying to think of wat I should really do it’s been so hard for me and I just don’t want any of my other family members making fun of me for not having my baby with me even tho they know I have nowhere else to go

Oh my goodness I’m so sorry you had to go through this that’s awful that your own brother would do that to you! But then again these days families aren’t as clogs as people make out. Is there such a thing as a temporary accommodation in the US? Or mother and baby foster homes? It won’t make you a bad mum, you are trying to better yourself for your child. But, you’ve literally just had baby mentally how are you going to feel leaving them with someone? Postportum depression isn’t a joke, it can hit quick. I don’t want you to have to deal with that!
@Meme yes
