<prompt> Human: Hello. I am 23 years old, I live in a big tourist vacation city work front desk at a hotel. I make 10 an hour bi weekly so my checks usually come out to be 750 dollars including incentives.My bf works at a theme park and makes 9.70 an hour.I just found out Im pregnant. It is against my religion to do anything other than raise the baby ourselves this has nothing to do with pf but we really do love each other, we both wanted kids anyway just not right now but mistakes happen not the point of my postanyway, my point of the thread is we need help suggestions on making it work. I currently live in a 2bdr apartment with roommates, he still lives with parents for the time being. Our original plans were to move in together when my lease ends in May with my current roommates in another 2bdr. they are best friends like sharing a room as it keeps costs downNow with me being pregnant keeping the baby, we dont know how our living situation will go as we cannot afford to live completely on our own.My current budget is as follows:350 for my share of rent75 for utilities50 for my share of phone bill50 I pay my mom every month for work done on my car that she charged on her card150 for car insurance150 for groceries10 for a beauty subscription box which I am going to cancel8.99 for an ebook subscription service which I really dont want to cancel since I am a book work, the library is too farI also only have 505 dollars in savings. I know its measly but I had more but I needed to dip into my emergency fund Im just now being able to build it back up again. As far as eating out Ive pretty much cut that out since I went vegetarian a few months ago. I have adopted an envelope system for extra spending. I give myself 20 a week to spend on coffee or lunches at work they give us 4-5 dollar meals at work once Ive spent that, its gone. So I allot the money on a Sunday, if I spend it all on Wednesday, too bad its done.Im just asking what can I do, what resources do I have? I was planning on returning to school for ultrasound tech in the fall I was hoping I could still do that drop down to part time at work. Please do not suggest that we get rid of our child or give it up for adoption. That is not an option. Helpful suggestions only please. Thank you for listening understanding.EDIT: WOW! Thank you all so much for giving us advice, suggestions some tough love. I have learned a lot with this thread I plan on using ALL of the information. Im sorry I wasnt very clear or specific in my original post but I wrote this in the middle of the night after I couldnt sleep because I was stressing. I know thats not good for baby so I decided to ask reddit. As usual, yall came through 3Because of this thread suggestions, both bf I will be searching for jobs, I will try to pick up an extremely pt job he is searching for a better job all together.HUGE shot out to the redditors who have offered to donate their baby items to us. It literally brought tears to my eyes. We cannot thank you enough.Besides aggressively job hunting, I decided that along with breastfeeding which was a given I am going to make our own baby food using my trusty blender. Ive been researching that as well. I am also cancelling my reading service and heading down to the library to get a library card so I can utilize their ebooks. I will also be sending applications to WIC, food stamps Medicaid. and after baby is born, we will be better at BC I will be going on some type of BC afterwards as long as it doesnt interfere with breasfeeding. You guys have been oh so helpful. Just when I was starting to think I had little to no choices, you guys have really shown me the way. Im sorry I cannot reply to everyone, its just been so many comments messages. You guys have hearts of gold.God bless you all.  <response>: OP, ufinally_joined is right. Its a small savings but the 8.99 can be saved. I live in a large city and the large city has an audiobook rental system. I can rent up to 5 electronic books at a time and its free. These other places like Audible and such usually limit you. Plus, because its a major library, it has just about anything you want. Worth looking into.
