I am 29 weeks pregnant. Me and the father split. I was living inNew Orleans, and determined to make my situation work on my own. I worked in a bar (not the best but EXCELLENT money during the "season") and I was going to make it work.
Enter- my mother. She kept telling me I need to move back to Iowa for a while, to be close to family, and Id need help etc. At first I refused, because I had it in my mind I could make it work.
Well during the summer it's the slowest season, and I wasn't making enough money. My mom BEGGED me to move back, and I finally caved. (Rash emotional, hormone fuled descision) when I moved I had no money, but we planned on me looking for a job as soon as I got here.
I get to Iowa, and immediately was reminded why me and my mother don't get along. She brought me here to control me.
She lives on the outskirts of town, no bus service, (I don't have a car since I lived in the city) and she REFUSES to take me to look for a job. She has wickedly ridiculous rules (like the house has to be dead silent after 8pm) and she screams at me for not helping her around the house (I clean after myself, and keep my room nice). She's made me absolutely miserable. I can't even leave the house because there is nowhere to go, and no way for me to get anywhere. All me and her do is scream at each other.
This caused me to be VERY depressed. And in an effort to not fight, I started just staying in my room, so we had nothing to fight about.
Well today, she blew my phone up telling me that I'm depressed, and since I'm not happy here, I need to leave. She said she was going to call my dad (who beat me from 3years old until I left to live with my mom at 16) and have me go there. Obviously, I'm not going to be put in that situation. But either way I'm getting kicked out, 29 weeks pregnant, with no money.
What do you think I should do!? I have all my baby's stuff here!!! I can't be on the street with it! I have no other family to go to! I have nothing! What should I do!?
UPDATE!*** surprisingly my BD is going to help out, so I don't have to go to a shelter! Thank you all for your help and support!! Cutting my mom off (obviously)
