So, I'm 22 weeks pregnant and I'm stressing over not having the means to get everything before my…

Are you having a baby shower?

Honestly, I have no idea. Most of my family lives in other states and I don't have many friends so I kinda doubt it but I'm not for sure yet

Do you have a job?

Yes I do but like most people, I basically live paycheck to paycheck. I'm not the type to just mindlessly spend money left and right and I very rarely splurge on anything because I have other responsibilities but with that being said, having a baby, from what I've heard, can be really expensive.

I didn't find out till I was 4 months along so it really didn't give me much time to mentally, physically and financially prepare myself.

Try a second hand store. I LOVE once upon a child and they have them all over! We have another one called kid to kid that is amazing and they have a lot of locations as well. It's hard living paycheck to paycheck. You can create registry online for family out of town they can order and have it shipped to you

Yeah, I was going to suggest a second hand store or if there's a clothing closet/church/etc. in your area that has baby stuff in decent condition. There's groups on Facebook with people selling or giving away baby things. @bella.liliana And I found out late and still need to get everything. Living paycheck to paycheck sucks, especially when you're not even making all that much to begin with. Have you done a budget?

Don't worry, you'll end up with what you need. At least bare minimum !

I don't either and I'll be 30 weeks in 3 days 😭😭😭

Thanks ladies :) love your help and support
