It feels like every time I think everything is falling in place for our lives together and the baby; something else bad happens and mess up everything. 😭
We have our house, and we are slowly moving into it. We need a refrigerator for us to fully move everything into it. So we were saving for a fridge, the baby shower, bills, and etc. Now our car is leaking every fluid and it won’t start. I’m 8 months pregnant and the baby could be here any minute. I’m scared, lost, and stressed.

Always seems how life goes! But it always seems to work itself out! You’re paying for your own baby shower??

@masseymomma16, I really hope it works out. We were gonna pay for it, but now I think we’ll have to cancel it.

@ayaalien, you don’t have family or friends that would help? That’s usually something the mothers and best friends do. I wouldn’t cancel it completely if you can avoid it. Those gifts will help out!

@masseymomma16, They don’t really have the money. But my mom assured me that she’ll help out some with the babies needs and so will my husband’s mom.

Can you look for a second hand fridge in excellent used condition? People move suddenly and have close to brand new fridges and will sell for good prices! That will cut back on the other expenses. Throw a cheaper shower and spend more on orderves and appetizers. Let people know what you really need for the baby and what you have not purchased. This helps people see a need to be filled rather than getting you a cute newborn outfit (which are cute but not when you receive all NB clothes!). Hang in there momma! Sometimes it's just working around some expenses and seeing where you can spend less/cut back ❤
Oh and my husband is a mechanic: look for a "mobile mechanic" because they can't charge the same as a shop as their are different labor costs involved. The shop charges more because they have to pay their employees. An independent mechanic is able to do the labor cost and you provide the money for parts OR they can get deals on parts for you that woukd cost you twice as much in a shop. Take care hun ❤
