[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 468044, member: 1233"] I am very sure this is an incredibly confusing, overwhelming and challenging time for her. Not only does she have a child to think of on top of her sobriety, she also has all the issues from her own adoption. I hope and pray that whatever she does is truly in the best interest of the child. Has she gone to social services to sign up for WIC, and also to the county health dept to find out what services they offer? She should be getting WIC right away, as in NOW, because it will provide food and nutrition education and some other things. The county health dept will probably have some services and she can get some types of help there. It varies by state and county, but here they will provide the most basic of OB services to women who have no other options and they will do any vaccines she may need (except the flu, not sure if they do that one) and they will also provide prenatal vitamins. Not sure all of them do, but it can't hurt to go ask. I truly hope this helps her to come to terms with her own adoption and she is able to move forward. ((((((((((hugs)))))))))) [/QUOTE]
