While you look for a job you can either file in court for support. Or, you can apply for public assistance, and the state will get a support order.

Seriously, apply immediately for welfare assistance and also file immediately for child and spousal support.

And then get yourself down to the employment office and start looking for work because there is no reason that you should have been a stay at home wife for this long. You are going to NEED to support yourself.

Nothing stated by me should be taken as giving you legal advice or forming an attorney/client relationship. The devil is in the details after all.
