Short update...
03.21.08 (1:02 am) [edit]
Just a very short update. I don't know if I mentioed before having the possibility of going to a transition house for a little bit.... Well if I go to a transition house..my boyfriend won't be able to be there...At all. Because the transition house is maninly for women escaping abusive relationships. If I was to keep the child I could go there but it's father coulden't even visit... No one is suppose to know where the place is unless they work or stay there... However I was informed that the people there like a social worker or whatever may have some sort of advice to help me. Anyways that's it... Another nail in the coffin it seems but oh well...

Why not look at it being another nail removed from the casket? With each nailed removed you're that much closer to being reborn and start a new life.

can you at least leave to see him?? maybe he could go to a mens shelter and be working and saving money for you guys to get a place..are there no hoistles you could stay at??
the womens shelters are usually good at helping you and your child to get back on your feet... it might really be a blessing in disguise.. worth a try anyways..

I'm sure I can leave to see him yes but I mean how up to leaving your house were you the first few weeks after giving birth? There are no mens shelters here... As far as I am aware. And we aren't that bad..It isen't totally about the money...Yeajh saving money would help it's even if we did save money there would still not be places avaliable in this area...Or very little...No there isen't any hostels here either. Yeah the womens shelters are usually good at helping women get back on their feet but a friend of mine who use to work at the transition house here told me that it would not be a good idea as a 'file' would be opend and it would make for a bad decision... However I will be calling this place to get hopefully some help from someone there...

I do not understand. This place is available to you. Why not stay there?

Well there is essentially two reasons. 1 the father coulden't even visit there. I feel he has the right to see his child. I might just be able to leave the place to have him visit.
The second reason is...This ones a little more complex... A friend of mine use to work at this transition house. She only told me this because we were discussing all my options... She was only even talking about it to me because she thought I was breaking up with my b/f or that he might not be treating me well etc. Once I made it clear that that wasen't the case she said to me that I shoulden't go to this transition house as they open up a 'file' which could cause issues in the future. However I can contact the workers there and ask them for some sort of help. Whatever that may look like. If I absolutly have to I will end up there but that could have some unforseen consequences for me and the father in the future. Also this place will only keep me for a month or so so I have to time it right anyways... It is in my mind as a not very favorable option after I give birth. However it's at the end of the list. I may end up there but for now I am going to keep on trying to find somewhere else.
