When I first found out I was preggo (i am 9w 4d) I was freaking out because of how expensive the essential baby items are (car seat crib ect.) Well this might sound bad but I called my favorite aunt to tell her I was pregnante and she was with a friend that knew someone that was looking to give away a used crib and changing table and I jumped on it I was estatic! Some people might not like the idea of using used items but we just bought a house and have only been married for about 3 months (2 when we found out I was preggo) and are struggling just to keep our head above water. We decided to save and buy the big stuff then let people add on to it at my shower in march or april (im due in may). The only thing is I am a little skeptic that any one will show up to the shower, I had a bridal shower in april of this year and I invited around 30 -40 people 2 showed up it was kinda sad but it could have been that this was my second marriage and people had already been to my first so that kinda made sense. I am just hoping we get a better turn out at the baby shower but I have a while befor I really need to worry and just started a new job that is female domanant and all can't wait for the baby to come (sometimes I think they are more excited then I am lol)
