So, my baby shower is next Saturday. I'll be a day short of 33 weeks.
I'm so freaking worried that I won't get anything I need for CeCe. I'm worried that I won't get anything really at all. I'm borderline panicking that my MIL will decide to work that day instead of going with me (SO won't go, he doesn't want to and I don't want to pressure him), and I'll end up going by myself. I wanted this to be special and I wanted to be able to come out of it at least a little more prepared for my baby, but if I don't get at least some bottles and diapers then I'll be screwed.
I'm scared that I won't have anything for my baby when the time comes. I act like I know what I'm doing, because to some extent I really do. I had counted on having money when she showed up but the people I sold my truck to are avoiding paying me (yeah, I'm pissed about that but I'm the only one who takes it seriously). What the hell am I supposed to do? I don't have any way of making money. MIL has to start paying her medical bills and I hate asking her and SO for money. I hate this.
Sometimes I feel like I should never have gotten pregnant because I'm not prepared. Sometimes I'm scared that I'm not going to be a good enough mother. Sometimes I hate that there isn't anything I can do for her right now. I wish I wasn't so ashamed to ask for help. I wish I was ready. I wish someone would take my concerns seriously and help me find a solution.
Sorry for the long post.

I'm sorry :/ but don't worry until after the baby shower. It may just surpass your expectations!

@canaryv, there isn't too much in my area but I'm connected to one in my community. They've been very helpful.

Maybe you could look into government help programs in your area that offer free baby necessities?
