Teaira,
The hardest part at first may be standing up to those around you who might think that having your baby isn't the best thing to do. You're going to need to be extra strong for your baby's sake. We are here to support you. This is going to be a very exciting (and sometimes scary) time, but I guarantee you that it will be worth it when you hold your little one in your arms and kiss his or her little head.
I echo the advice some others have given you that you should contact a local crisis pregnancy center. They can put you in touch with all sorts of wonderful resources, from maternity clothes to baby items.
Another good program to look into is W.I.C. (Women, Infants, and Children). It's through your County Health Nurse and it will provide you with FREE vouchers for all sorts of healthy food, like cereal, juice, beans, eggs, peanut butter, and milk. And it's all FREE just because you're pregnant.
If you aren't already doing so, you should start taking a good prenatal multi-vitamin. You can get them at any drugstore and most grocery stores. Walmart has them for about $4 for a 2 months supply. Not bad ;-)
Hang in there! I'll say a prayer for you!
Sharon
