1stTime_Mommy

I'm a lil sad, she is my first so obv I wanted to experience a baby shower but in my case it ain't happening, dere rlly isn't anyone to plan its just me & my sister and my mother wnt even be able to attend cuz she's rlly sick and has to be in a physical therapy home cuz of her stroke & wnt be home in time..my other family aren't reliable and my bd's family is all tlk again just unreliable so me and my sister agreed on a welcome home baby party so I can at least get gifts & show off my baby girl..its is a huge weight off my shoulders with all da stress tho as sad as I am about it, & luckily my sisters and mom have bought basically all da nessacary things she needs all dats left is da swing & a couple others lil things hopefully bd's family will chip in something at some point...

I'm sorry you can't have a baby shower. I wish you could go to the ones that are planned for me.

Aww I'm not having one either my m.i.l was goona do it but she's really tight on money now and my mom said her an my aunts would but she hasn't even told them! I would throw myself a simple one but we don't have the money either . Its my second baby but 1st girl! My son is 5 so I haven't been prego in a while lol. My sister has gotten a lot of stuff for her and I've picked up a few things here and there but we still need a lot! And I'm about to be 30 wks pregnant .. I would throw you a baby shower especially if its your first!

Go to the baby shower event at babies r us June 11th, it won't be like a real shower but at least you'll have some goodies to get you excited and you'll be able to be around other mommies to be!

@Deni_b is it at all babies r us? I haven't heard of dat and I'm registered dere

I believe it is, it's posted on the website and doesn't look to be specific to just one store since I don't have a log in account for them and I didn't chose a store on the site check the events page to see if it is http://www.babiesrus.com/shop/index.jsp?categoryId=4346704&ab=Bru_HP:Dspot:4:In-Store-Events

It's also in the ads they send you.

@deni_b omg is the babies r us event in London UK? I missed the mothercare one and I'm still pissed about that.

They have some nursing classes going on this month too, I'm not certain if that is the same for the UK, check the website and go to the events page. I know I get the booklet with the ads and coupons and it's usually listed in there what's going on in-store locally that month.

Don't feel bad. It Made me aware how much a child is really worth besides medical. This is my 3rd and facing all alone and all i need now is his bath tub. I spent over $1,000 just on this one and i am a single mother. It makes me proud to be the one providing for him.On the previous preggies, well i had baby showers but i took them for granted. You never know until reality hits. Just have a welcome party which is still considered a baby shower. At least u have family and friends, i am alone in this country. Good luck
