  • It is hard to be so far from family. There are resources to learn about caring for a baby, even nurses who will come to your house for free to teach you about development. It may seem scary but it can be done. Try to find someone you trust (teacher, pastor, coworker) who can help you find moms groups or anything else you might need. Prayers for you.
  • ive been reading what to expect when youre expecting...it has made things a lot easier on me.
  • Ok thanks yes I just bought the book lol
