Pregnant and homeless

Hi, I'm looking for some advice on the current situation I'm in im 19 years old homeless and 5 months pregnant living in Ireland. I was made homesless at the starting of my pregnancy i moved in with a family members house up until about 5 or 6 weeks ago I've been kinda living in my bfs parents house, the family member i was staying with wants all of my belongings removed i can't bring them to my bfs because I'm not actually living here and bringing all my stuff would be out of line and no room either. I'm unsure if my course is going to keep me on I'll find out in 2 weeks I'm trying to save for a baby and looking for accommodation but can't afford the rent and depositas itsso high, i feel like I've overstayed a bit to long in my bfs home and with a baby on the way and nowhere for my belongings and unsure if I'll have a home when it gets here is worrying. So any advice or anyone in a similar situation please help!

  • I'm not an expert on Ireland but I'm sure there must be some sort of mother baby homes? They might even help you find a more stable job in the future. Give google a thorough search or call help lines. I've been there and hope you will find a way!
  • Have you contacted your local council and explained your situation? If they can’t help I’m sure they’ll sign post you to the people who can.
