I am now 26 weeks pregnant my fiance was killed by a attempted rober.. We have a 3yr old son and I am now having another boy. Im so stressed that im not gaining weight although the baby is healthy and the right size. But my biggest fear is being a single mother with two kids boys and waiting for a good man to except me and my kids. This was such an unfortunate incident sometimes i feel i dont want to go on. I cant go to my prenatal visits and be happy he will never get to see his 2nd son and this saddens me. He will not be there for the delivery. I have strong faith in God and pray about my situation. But stress and the anticipation of bills and me struggling with two kids alone makes me depressed. Can someone give me advice on how to cope with this death and my financial situation.

I'm so sorry for your situation. Your situation is so sad. Well I know this isn't exactly the answer you were looking for but have you looked into Social Security spousal benefits? You qualify because your spoused pa__sed away for a monthly check. As well as your current son and when your new son is born, he'll also receive monthly checks. This is put into place to try and help offset the income you are losing because your spouse is no longer living. This should help with your financial situation.

I don't believe this would apply, January, as they were not married. Tequillat, I'm so sorry to hear of your situation, it's hard to imagine.

Sorry, I saw spouse and looked over fiance. Well, it wouldn't apply to her.. but it would cover her children.. they could still receive monthly checks because their father is no longer living.

Thanks for your advice since we were not married i know i dont qualify but for my kids i am applying i cant apply for the unborn until he is here. Its just hard going through a pregnancy alone. He was so excited about the baby and our wedding its like all my dreams are down the drain. I just hate starting over with someone else and going through the learning phase and wondering if the next person will except my kids as his own.
