If I only knew how far along I was…yeah that’d be friggin’ great.

So since I was on BC when I found out that I was pregnant, I have no idea how far along I am. My guess is about 8 weeks. I’ve been trying to get into a doctor ever since I found out and I’m really just in a HUGE catch 22. Once upon a time I lost my job at a major automobile manufacturer, and with that I lost my insurance. I had a small severence package and I’ve been fortunate enough to be able to collect unemployment. I rarely get sick so insurance was never really a priority for me…..until now. Fast forward to now and I’ve applied for the state insurance program, which is where I have ran into problems. It can take 45 days to process and every single OB/GYN that I have called says that they cannot accept me because I am pending and at the same time they cannot allow me to self pay until I’m approved. They say it’s a “law”…but no one at the state insurance place seems to know about said law. Try telling the Dr’s office that one, it did NOT go over so well for me. They have the control to schedule or not schedule. They chose the latter. So now I have no idea what to. I seriously am stressed about not knowing what is going on, with Ayden I had awesome insurance, awesome prenatal care. This time I’m scared out of my mind because I have no idea what to do in this situation.
