My friend keeps trying to give me her hand me downs which is nice! And I love her for that, but this is my first baby I just want to buy things for my baby and experience baby shopping etc...maybe I’m just weird lol
@khawkins, that’s the same thing I said just like Facebook but just moms and soon too be mommy’s
@bbyzvcy18, And it’s like my friend mever received hand me downs, and it was her first baby so why would I want hand me downs for my first baby.
@saniaha, Right better than me posting everything on Facebook 😂 but yes I’m loving this app, you get to hear from real moms and moms to be and everybody so far on here is nice. My new fav app. It’s like Facebook but for all pregnant women/moms 😂
@khawkins, 😂😂 exactly how I am I love it cause you get too talk about all your pregnancy problems without anybody judging you and post all your belly bumps lol and you welcome girl I knew you would love it 😊
@khawkins Yes, so true. Now to say if it was my very iwn sister then i know they are just helping but when it comes to cousins, friends, etc.... no thank you.
@saniaha, Girl I was gonna inbox you on Facebook and be like thank you for recommending this app 😂😂 lowkey kinda obsessed with it 😂
@saniaha, yeah like I don’t want no hand me downs 😭 I want new clothes/items for my baby
I’m the same way with my 3rd baby I feel like every baby should have its own new clothes
@bbyzvcy18, Right! I don’t want anyone saying “you have this because of me”, “if it wasn’t for me you wouldn’t have this.” Knowing damn well I could do it on my own! No thanks.
You are right. I feel the same way. Maybe im even weirder because depending who it is sometimes i feel like they just do it so that they can proclaim that they prepped you up.
@larubia2723, Lol it is kinda hard to say no cause I know she just tryna be nice 😩 I’ll find a nice way to let her know that I appreciate her trying to help, but I don’t want her items. Some of the things she’s trying to give me I do want, just a lot of the bigger things like bassinet, etc I don’t want from her. Other people probably are like girl I wish I had a friend to give me all that 😂😂
@khawkins ok well u need to tell her some ppl might b like ugh but they need to understand like my sis kn law had my shit for my babygirl to b and i said i dont want nothing from noone aslong as its new or something i dont want hand me downs is ok to feel like that but i told my husband to tell her no lol cuz i didnt know how to say no to her but thats your friend it may n different
@larubia2723, Yess!! That’s exactly how I feel girl. Like I just want to have my baby’s nursery look a certain way some of the things she’s trying to give me just doesn’t fit what I had in mind 😩 like patterns etc
@khawkins yeah definitely consider it even if you don't end up using it you can always donate it and give it to somebody else! :)
@sjo1, I believe you! I’ll take any advice I can get since this is my first time experiencing any of this. I accepted a baby tub from her so far lol but she wants to give me her bassinet etc, I may consider it 🤗
Nope not at all i felt same way i dont feel like my baby need hand me downs i feel like my baby deserves new things so i know exactly how u feel i mean i get she trying to b nice but u should juat let her know
I honestly felt the same way when I had my daughter she was my first baby I wanted everything brand new for her, however like @laciemarie said babies grow extremely fast and even if they are hand me downs you will be so glad to have taken them they'll come in handy girl! 😊
@laciemarie, Actually never thought about it that way, but I totally agree. Thanks
Id take the hand me downs (depending on what they were) and still shop. Baby grows fast, maby that'll give you a chance to buy bigger stuff for as baby grows
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
my baby daddy's ex wife works at the hospital I'm having my daughter she is just a cleaning lady she tell me they let her move the babies around I'm scared this women will take my baby she even tells me if I have my baby early she could see her ever day .. my doctor only delivers at this hospital I don't know what to do . this is why I don't want to have my baby early ..
I can't take it anymore! Haley (yes my 1mth old and no I wasn't able to go through this "joy" of nursing my older daughter, Molly) has been screaming non stop for 6hrs! All she wants to do is eat and I can't have her attached to me all day, everyday! She has wanted to eat every hr on the hr for the past 3hrs! I put her in her room so I don't scream at her but I just can't take it!
What would you do? - baby shower
SO my mom has been very negative about the baby my entire pregnancy. Especially in the beginning, she said the most HORRIBLE things about me, my DH and my unborn baby. Like that I was making a big mistake, that I was making her 2015 the worst year ever... etc etc. Even when she would do nice things she made me feel like I was a HUGE inconvenience and a burden to her. She told me to definitely NOT expect a shower or anything like that from her. Fine, whatever...
So someone contacted me waiting me to watch her son four days a week for $150/wk. I had to tell her that even if someone worked for $10/hr it only pays for a day and a half in my opinion?
I mean maybe I’d do it for $300? But the $150 I just can’t see if being worth it to me
@khawkins Right!
