Go to a food bank. Look up social services that will give you food vouchers or gift certificates to grocery stores. Pan handle on the corner, if you must.

social services can help with a lot. bills, food stamps, cash help, car, housing, all kinds of stuff you just have to go to the offices & apply for help. plus many churches or salvation army hold food drives & such. some give out food once a month. salvation army around here does it every week. people are more willing to help when children are involved, churches especially.

Food stamps...they are a life saver...haven't used them yet but I will be in about a year. Right now I cannot get them because I live at home and my parents make too much.

look into social services for single moms! There's probably something to help you stay on your feet, and don't be afraid to ask for help from family and friends. This is no time for pride!
