Anything will help. (Baby due Sep 10th 2024)
My name is Desiree.. I really don't know how to put this without sounding like a sob story for money but I genuinely do need help. Im 26 and have been stubbornly independent my whole life as I never had a father and mother could not keep custody of me. Regardless of the circumstances I've always held a job and my own place since I was 18 years old, never asking for help and never asking for a hand out, but still living paycheck to paycheck. last december I found out I was pregnant while living in a small 450sqft studio which I paid $1700 a month for in Bridgewater Ma. With rent so high and a place so small I wasn't able to save a dime for my baby, there was also a roach infestation beginning in that complex. So I made the decision to break my lease in order to stay in my grandmothers living room until I could save enough for a new place. The only problem is the complex I stayed in then charged me $5000 for breaking the lease early.. even so i sucked it up and made a payment plan with them and still worked while heavily pregnant until I saved up $2800 for first and last for a apartment which I just signed for tuesday.. my problem now is.. I'm due September 10th just 3 months away and I've secured the roof over our head but now I do not have money for anything.. every bit I had went to getting that apartment.. I do not have a crib or bassinet.. no diapers, no wipes, no clothes, no safety equipment, no rocker, car seat, or carriage, no high chair, no formula, we have no couches, no dinning room table, nothing but my bed and a roof. With 3 months till my due date I'm terrified and I dont know how im going to do this.. I don't think I can do this.. I'm working as hard as I can in this summer heat heavily pregnant and for once in my life.. I'm begging for help.. I just want to make a comfy environment good enough to raise my baby and I'm running out of time.. I highly doubt anyone will make it this far into my story and I doubt anyone will be willing to help but Im out of options. Literally anything will help.. please.
