With me doing adoption, I wouldn't be having a baby shower. Since a baby shower is only for mothers keeping the baby, and needing supplies for the baby. I've decided to have a "Mommy Shower". So that I can have things for myself after my baby is born.
Since I know I'm not going to be in the best mood for a while after the baby is born, I would need stuff to help me get through that first year. Like books on depression, and books on experiencing giving a baby up for adoption. And other books to help me.
But like always, I'm not sure if I should even have it. My mother says no one does that, and I told her that's why I'd be doing it. And she just gives me a look of confusion and makes me feel like I'm making another mistake. That everything I do, should be the way she would do it. Even if she doesn't tell me what she would do. Since she's not the type to REALLY HELP.
I don't even know if people would come, since I know certain people, they don't think I'm making the right choice, or they won't even talk to me anymore, and just treat me like ****. And I know I can't hear what people are saying, I know they are, since I'm used to that. Been happening to me for most of my life. Just wish I had actual friends. I only have one really close girl friend helping me through this, just because she knows too, since she's pregnant too. But I just wish I had more help, I feel like I'm doing this by myself.
The father won't really help, way too immature. And having to move back home, that's not helping things. Since I won't be able to go online when I move there, since I don't have a job. Ugh. I need to get away.
That's why I want to do this Mommy Shower. To be able to get things for myself to cheer me up, cause all I do is cry each day. By myself, and I know It's not healthy for the baby, so I start to bottle it up, and that's not a good idea either. I just can't be or get happy. Dammit!
If anyone is in the type of situation, or has experienced it, please help. :-(
