Deliaha Day·В ожидании первенца

I wish I was working I still don't have anything for my son to sleep in, I don't have a car seat and stroller, and I need newborn clothes. I have every other size but newborn. I'm struggling with no help my boyfriend is trying but he can only do some much with an eye disease that making his eye sight go. I'm so stressed out and did I mention my mom wants me out of her house soon. I'm so tired I have tried everything and every source to get help but I need a job to get food stamps/tanf, I need my license to drive and I have to get a car. My section 8 is on a waiting list and I do not know how long I'll be on the waiting list. Every time I see a sale for baby stuff I try my best to go, but depending on my dad and brother is hard they are both working. I'm so tired of this every time I work towards something it gets ripped right from under me. I have even tried asking family members for help no such luck. I give up I even tried giving everything to God but my son will be here anytime soon and I'm still struggling. I'm so worried I'll be a terrible mother that I can not provide for my son.

@anyae23, they're 0-3m and up. they were given to me by my step sister. She has 4 boys and one girl so she gave some stuff to me. Because she knew my situation. I was thinking that at first but my dad said because of my scoliosis he don't think the floor is a good idea for me. He's trying his best to help me but he has his own family to provide for and I understand completely.

@xxrockeyy11_26_16, what sizes are the clothes you have now ... You may be able to find a consignment or resell store and sell the ones you have that he cant fit yet and get sizes for him now. That way your not spending any money really.. And for the crib sleeping aspect just have him sleep next to you or get pillows and blankets and make a pallet on the floor for you both .. Just some quick ideas for the moment

Nope my sister and neice left they moved out my mom wanted the same and she kicked her out. They have been gone since August. @anyae23 I am just so freaking stressed out. I wish shit would get better but my son will be here anytime now and I'm so stressed out and my bipolar disorder is not helping at all.

@xxrockeyy11_26_16, oh wow thats not right, i was in your situation with my daughter.. My mom wanted the same and actually kicked me out for about 2 months but allowed me to come back and was more light hearted when she was actually born. Maybe yours will come along too. Hoping things get better for you hun

@anyae23 where I live at you have to have some source of income and I don't. I'm basically homeless right now I'm sleeping on my dad's couch because my mom wants me to pay rent and I don't have a job.

@xxrockeyy11_26_16, I certainly hope that something turns around for you esp before the little one is born. I know it's hard. Maybe there's someone out there that could hire u part time that's within walking distance or housecleaning next door. I know it's hard when you're pregnant, I'm in my feet 8 hours a day and get so worn out. But you'll find that as a mommy you'll do anything for your baby and I know you will and have. Keep trying, there's something out there for you

@yanald90 thanks the thing is I already was doing that and I'm still waiting on something that was supposed to be here months ago. I paid for it too. Some of them don't give away free stuff. I've tried to find mommy groups that give away free stuff. @morganmommy79 me too but it never does for me, I know the feeling at one point my mom and step father borrowed money from my dad so they can keep the big house they live in now and never paid him back. All my life my dad and I have done so much for people and we still don't get anything in return. I don't ask for help honestly I try my best to do everything on my own. When others need help I do my best but see when I need the help its a problem. I'm so tired of putting my faith and trust in others. I was supposed to have a baby shower my best friend was supposed to throw it for me and then I ended up planning the damn thing by my self with no money or help so I canceled it and never looked back.

Hoping it all works out for you. I'm sure it will. My family was VERY poor growing up and it always worked out somehow. :)

My son has a crib and he is 7 months and it has never been used yet. We believe in co sleeping. But you know get creative! you can even make a bassinet of sort! Get a box and poke large/ huge holes at the babies eye sight when it lays down all around. big so you can see through and make it cute! remember a lot of these things people get are not necessities and ask local moms on FB mommy groups near you/ for free baby items. Trust me you will get help. I would hell if you were near me! Just ask someone!

@xxrockeyy11_26_16, I think we all started there. I started working young but my parents helped me. Could u work for her in return for a place to stay until you get a local job or transportation to a job? In my area we have transportation help to get ppl to work and medical appts. Also, see if u qualify for WIC and ask if there are any local HELP ME GROW programs. They help with baby items too.

@mommab4 my dad said he's going to get me a car seat. I'm just worried about the clothes and a little bassinet or something for him to sleep in.

No I'm not having a baby shower. it's a family event and I do not really speak to my family at the moment. I do that too asking for stuff but they always are so pricey. I don't have a job I'm broke at the moment. My mom wants me to pay rent or get out of her house and I do not have a job. I don't have no type of income. @morganmommy79

to be honest... the only big thing you really need is a car seat... maybe see if local fire house have any they can donate to you... and also talk to the hospital you are delivering at... they will not let you leave without one.. and where I live they will help if you cannot afford one.

Is anyone throwing you a shower? I wish you were closer I'd give you the baby boy clothes I have. My mom bought them in case and I'm having a girl. I always reach out on Facebook, tell ppl what I'm looking for, ask for a good price and most of the time it's given to me from good ppl. I'm not looking for a handout when I post, I'm willing to pay, but there are some good hearted ppl out there. :)

@housfullofgrls, I am doing that now I got all the little stuff but it's like I still have the big/expensive stuff to get. I do try to babysit but people really don't trust other people with no child care experience. I just graduated from high school.

Salvation Army or resale shops. Buy a little at a time. Try to babysit kids and animals for money

@pebblestone, I've tried that most churches don't do that where I live. I've asked most of the churches, right now they're getting ready for the holidays.

babybump_user My heart hurts for you. I would sue the s*** out of those doctors.
