Ok so I want to cry. Michael is doing taxes and it doesnt like we will be getting much of a return. Thats not the issue, it isnt, but I am starting to feel really overwhelmed. I mean, I wont be taking any daytime classes once school starts in the fall, maybe I will take a couple night ones. But I want to be the one to raise my baby and I know I wont really be working either. I dont know how I will be able to pay the cell and internet bill. At this point, it looks like I will have to find a used baby carrier which is really not safe and go without a stroller and stuff. What else can I do? I know I wont be having a baby shower. Maybe the ladies at church will have one for me, but I am not holding my breath. Even if I did get one, not many would show up. Thats just how things work for me. I dont have anything ready for the baby at all. I havent even started in the baby room. I keep trying to get Michael to help me but he seems to think that we have plenty of time. Truth is, we dont. At this rate I am going to have to borrow a baby carrier just to bring the baby home in. I know I am being irrational, but I am just having one of those days. Pregnant women have them alot I guess but so far this has been my worst day.
Well I am off to bed for now and I am sure tomorrow will be better.

Just a little encouragement... Yes, we women do get very irrational especially when the hormones start to really kick in!! I don't know about the towns where you live around, but I have found great deals by shopping children's consignment shops. You also might try ebay and Craigslist.org Craigslist is all local stuff so you can get great deals from people that live close by you. I bought a perfectly good 35 inch tv for $25 last summer, and a vcr for $5 just simply because the guy wanted to get rid of things. We have also bought kids bikes and bureaus. They might not be brand new, but it is amazing to see how much you can find that is still in good shape.
To put the fears at ease about used baby carriers, you can always double check on the Consumer Reports website for a list of recalled items before you get something.
Hope it helps! Keep your chin up, this time goes so fast!! Are you feeling movement yet? If not, it is close! Absolutely the coolest thing!
