Ok. Your lease ends in two weeks. Perfect opportunity for both of you to take a fresh look on life. Have you spoken with the mother that already seems to have too much on her plate? A support group like three women dealing with the same situation, and a caring mother to provide emotional support when they can't provide it for each other - all three coping at a similar place in life at once - sounds like an ideal living situation, even if all three pregnant woman have to share the same small bedroom. They'll create lasting lifelong friendships and have plentiful good/bad memories of the craziness.
Get your cousin hooked up with the best situation possible, outside of your home. Offer to let her come by to visit one weekend a month, or take her out to lunch and chat once a month - or talk on the phone. Be an emotional support. Do not become a financial support - you are in no position to provide this kind of aide.
