26-1-2009 - 99 Days! NervousMy mood while writing this blog:
Nervous



I have 99 days left until my due date, and I'm officially freaking out! LOL! I feel like nothing is done and I have so little time. My family keeps telling me not to buy anything before the baby shower, but I can't help but wonder what will happen if I don't get a lot at the shower. Like, what if no one buys the travel system, crib, bouncer, jumper, crib bedding, bassinet, bassinet bedding, playard, high chair, swing, breastpump etc. Basically, what if I'm left to buy all the big stuff at the last minute! My shower is April 4, so almost exactly one month before my due date. People have bought a bunch of clothes, which I'm truly thankful for, but I don't want to only have clothes when she's born. I wish I could just skip ahead to my due date and see what I should have bought before hand. Oh well! Since that's not possible I'll just sit back and relax... or at least try to relax.

Anyone that's been to my page in the past 5-6 days has seen that I am officially a single mom. That was the best decision I've made in a long time. After my ER visit I knew that cutting out my stress meant getting rid of some people, including him. I've also had to cut ties with a family member, and a so-called friend. I feel a lot better now. I still stress about things, but not nearly as much as before. The people I talk to now are positive people. People I can call on anytime day or night and they will have nothing but positive words to share with me.

I've had a feeling about what day Kaydence will come, so I've decided to write it down and see if I'm right. Kaydence will be here on April 27. I don't know why I think that, but that's the date that is in my head. We'll see..

My next doctor's appt is tomorrow, and I'll do the "lovely" glucose test, so you'll hear from me again after that!

my shower is april 4... dont stress you think you need all this stuff straight away but youll be suprised how much of it you wont really use. i have 3 sister in laws giving me brand new stuff they bought (thinking they needed it all, like bouncers, bassinets etc) and never used which is great... so as long as you have a cot and the basics youll be ok!!

yeah don't trip...it'll all work out. it does fly by though...it feels like yesterday that I was 30 weeks.

I am glad that you made a positive choice for yourself and for your baby. You will be much better off without stress!

Try to chill out about what you will have for the baby. Have a look at your list and think about what you actually need for the first month and just concentrate on making sure you have that x x

You have no need to be scared, you are going to make a wonderful mom!! x

I am glad that you are surrounding yourself only with positive people; that is hard to do but so necessary! I hear you on wanting to buy everything now so that you are not stuck with rushing around in a last minute panic to pick everything up. Worst case scenario; you get a bunch of gift cards and have things shipped to your house off your registry. No travel involved! I am off to check out your belly pics!

Hi miss Kristin! Kudos on the big life decision to letting the toxic folk go. You need to be happy as you enter this next phase in your life! Kaydence deserves the very best of everything and I know you will make sure she has it! If you see something you want go ahead and get it orrrrrr you can register and then cheat and look and see if the item was purchased! lol Have a good one!

congrats on de-stressing your life, everything should be about yourself, and your baby from here on out. family and friends are always important... but you have to think about the health of that little one first!


as far as buying things goes- try not to stress on that either! if you don't get as many things as you want/need, craigslist is a lifesaver. in the meantime, pick things up if you want them! this is your baby, and if it makes you feel better purchasing things before a baby shower, go ahead! it's the entire fun part of being pregnant for me (and violette kicking)

Good for you! I'm so happy for you. Stay focused on what's important and remain in positive company. I feel the exact same way as you regarding the baby shower. I actually went out and purchased the big stuff, because I was afraid that people wouldn't be able to afford it and also didn't want to wait until the last minute to find out. I bought baby bed, changing table, bedding, travel system & etc. We don't make a lot of money, so ever since I learned that I was pregnant I've been saving every penny of my income. We've made it a priority to live on his income alone. We had to get very disciplined, but it wasn't hard b/c we agreed on what was important. Good luck!!

Girl you sound so empowered! I love love love love love it! Yay You!!!!

Cutting ties is a hard thing to do I have been there. So I understand. But you are so right so things you have to send away and some things in your life just must die... As scripture says there were two goats in the old testatment. One had to be killed and the other sent away as a signifigance of sins! Yes hunny do it!

As far s the stuff for the room. My family told me the same thing. Wait, wait, wait! Now Zechorien may come early and I am no where near prepared. But I know everything will work out fine. As long as they are having the baby shower with more than enough time before your due date you will be fine. But I think theres nothing wrong with buying a few things here and there!

Hey gurl!! I hear u on freakin out. Sum ppl be thinkin pregnant women r jus nutts but really 99 days is not long away.. One thing i will say about getting stuff. Well im like u, i jus wanna get all these things for my babee now, while i have the money b/c i will be pissed come the babyshower and no 1 has got ne of the necessities. So.... what i have decided 2 do is buy all the big stuff such as bassinett and travel system NOW!! and if sum 1 decides 2 get me those things at the shower then i could keep my receipt and return it or get sumthin else that i like. 1 thing 2 keep in mind is the only ppl that will prolly get u the big things is close family. I dont kno' u or ur family so may b im wrong but friends and distance famiy members usually jus get clothes, diapers or such.. And u did good by cutting lose the negative things/people. It prolly helps alot!! I had 2 do that w/ my last babydaddy. He was being waaaayyy 2 negative and i figured hell i can do bad all by my damn self.. So u go gurl!!!

Mandy Irish Mommy - Monday, 26 Jan
ha ha i hear you with the freaking out part, we are waiting to get into our new house so i think it will be another month or so, then it will be a huge rush getting the nersery and other house bits dine before baby comes!!! its all go!!!
as for geting rid of ppl that stress u our great idea!!! you dont need that shit, baby will be better off with just you, he will only pull u down if he is not in it for the long haul! my sis broke up with her bf when her baby was 1 month old, baby is nearly 3 still no sign of his daddy and baby and mommy are doin sooo great better than ok, hope im as good of a mother as she is!
