New Here. Will you have me?

[melindawannababy]

Im trying to have a baby. Been trying for a couple years. Been reading on the internet about Femara and Clomid. My coworker used Femara and got pregnant first month. She had prescription for 3 months and is willing to give me the rest of the prescription. Anyone else use other peoples prescriptions?

No. It's illegal without a prescription of your own. Not to mention all the necessary testing that would need to be done before taking any of them anyways.

If you've been trying for that long you should get a referral to see a reproductive endocrinologist.

I dont have insurance. I cant afford to go to doctor.

Have you read the newbie blog? If not, go do that. Do you temp and chart your cycles? If not, you should also do that.

Please tell me this is a joke and you aren't seriously considering taking an extremely powerful medication that wasn't even prescribed to you. This has to be a joke, right?

Then you probably can't afford to have a baby.

Taking these medications without prior monitoring by a fertility specialist (reproductive endocrinologist) is an extremely irresponsible idea. In some cases, you can ruin your fertility entirely and not be able to have your own children.

Please read our newbie blog and don't take your coworker's (or anyone's but your) medication.

EDIT: I meant proper, but prior kinda works, I guess.

So how would you even know that femara would work. What if your tubes are blocked? What if your partner has low motility or low morphology. Femara would do nothing in those cases.

Terrific plan. So that's the medical part sorted. How will you afford formula? Clothes? Diapers? Daycare?

[melindawannababy]

I will breastfeed. That's free. I saw diapers at the food pantry last week so i can get them there.

This has to be a joke. Being forced into a situation where you need to utilize support services is one thing, but it's another entirely to go in planning to not be able to support yourself or your child. 

[SheilaTheTank]

This has to be a troll. Has to be.

[TheEleventhHour]

No. Just no. OP, stop it. Pretty sure you are a troll but if you aren't this is seriously the worst thought out plan ever.

[melindawannababy]

god gave me two breasts with nipples for a reason.

If you can't afford to see a doctor, then you can't afford to deal with the possibility of these medications royally fucking you over. It's happened to many women on here WITH proper monitoring and could very easily happen to you, too. Can you afford a hospital stay if your ovaries overrespond to these medications and grow several cysts?

He also gave you a brain. Use it some time.

And when your baby can't latch? What if you fail to produce enough milk? Or a dozen other things that would make it unrealistic for you to rely on breastfeeding your baby.

Yeah me too and my body wouldn't produce enough milk and my kid couldn't ever latch properly so...

He also gave you a uterus, ovaries, and fallopian tubes. What's your point?

Obvious troll is obvious. Snooze.

Maybe you could let your SO breastfeed since men also have breasts and nipples.

And what happens when your child turns out to have an allergy to breastmilk. That's a very real possibility. Never assume that everything is going to be smooth sailing because it rarely is.

[melindawannababy]

the odds of being allergic to breastmilk is so small, if the kid is allergic to my breastmilk i can go on wic i think, if not i can buy powdered milk and make drink that.

With what money? Formula can be incredibly expensive. Even more so If you need a prescription formula.

My niece is allergic to breastmilk and 99% of formulas, so good luck with all of your logic.

ETA: You cannot just give a baby powdered milk. I hope you meant formula. I also hope you know that not all formulas are covered by WIC.
