you say your a sell rep... Speak with hr at your company and see if it is possible to keep your job and work from home. It is as simple as having a phoneline at an internet connection and is a simple setup. Hopefull explaining your situation will allow them to have compassion. I cant imagine how difficult it must be however it is neccessary. What about the baby's father. This is apart of his responsibility b/c you are carrying his child. Worse come to worse go stay with your family or friends. Or if thats not an option you would qualify for government assistance. I know in atlanta they will pay up to $1600 a month for rent. They also give you food stamps and healthcare assistance. Dont let your pride keep you from asking others for help. Good luck

That is a hard situation however, you have to think about that unborn child.. If you want him/her to survive you might have to take the chance and stay on bedrest. In the meantime maybe you can apply for some kind of assistance.
Do you have any family that could help you out? What about the baby's father? He needs to help you pay the rent? Do not worry you will work something out.. Good Luck!!!!

Well the idea is to rest. I dont know of anything you can do from bed or millions would be doing it. You can sell some of your possessions, get a loan, live on credit, live on welfare, go to a church and ask for assistance, move back in with family. Good Luck.

I assume your doctor told you to bed rest ? if so you must or you will loose the baby ,check with the doctor again to make shore you understand why he said that.
I know you need the money but that will not bring back the baby if its dead ,get some help from the father or you parents or some one .

I suggest that you go to your local DSHS office to apply for state help and medical, something like welfare or what ever your state has, also contact your local WIC office to also help out with some foods. If you have no one else to help you then this will be your best bet until you can work again.

One of two options come to mind.... a loan (via bank or family) or talk to your creditors and tell them the situation. Usually they will work with you a bit. Good Luck!

Call your creditors and explain the situation, then tell them to wait for their money like good little doobies. Pay them in full when you begin receiving your disability assistance.

There's not too much you can do from home for work. Talk to your department of social services as well, they may have some answers/help for you. Talk to parents, husband/boyfriend/fiancee for help.
