Subject: Re: unplanned pregnancy--update Author: Heather [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 07/10/06 6:43pm In reply to: Laura 's message, "Re: unplanned pregnancy--update" on 07/10/06 11:20am Hi Laura, It's good to hear your lifted countenance. About what to do regarding your husband, I'd say just giving him a little time and space to catch up with you is the best thing you can do for him. Being 'childish and little sulky' probably isn't very much fun for you, but it could be worse. My guess is that if you can hold out a week or so of just being kind and patient he'll probably accept the situation and begin to come around to celebrate and be the source of support you need right now. But if not, it's very doubtful that he'll be able to resist the joy and wonder of his newborn child, or perhaps the sooner 'reality' of feeling him/her inside you or seeing ultrasound pictures to help him visually. Your home daycare idea sounds like a great idea. If I wasn't already helping my husband with his business I might consider that.

Please e-mail me with your experiences so I have an idea of how to get started. Also, Does anyone have any info on housing help?? I've been trying to find a larger place but the rents in NJ are sooooo expensive that it is almost impossible. I would appreciate any and all advice out there. Thanks

I think it's a great idea! Heather

It describes what each program is and what if offers and how best to find the right number to call. http://www.storknet.com/cubbies/parenting/finances.htm You can just cut and paste these links into your browser. How's your husband's adjustment going these days? And how are you doing? Heather
