Accidental Procrastination :(

Have you reached that point in u our pregnancy and realized that you haven't done a da.mn thing to get ready for your baby except go to your appointments??? Ya it just dawned on me. It's something that I have thought about but have had time and we were waiting to find out the sex, now I only have 118 days at best left:/ I know it seems like I have a lot of time but...I literally just 8 months ago got rid of all the baby items I had, which was quit a bit, because I wasn't planning on another one for a few more years!!! Aaaahhh!  This is my 3rd so a baby shower isn't exactly in the works either. lol I'm a genius.

I COUPONED when i passed five months mark.

A little here and there and I'm due in less than 10 days and I'm stocked. It took time and I'm in California. We were blessed because we received a new carseat as well as other things for free. My sister did a baby shower and its my second. I did layaway at kmart as well as find second hand nursery items because i blew money with my first that wasn't called for. Brand new things went untouched  until i gave it away. Here i am 7 years later :). God luck and don't stress, take small steps.

Omg I actually felt the same way earlier and all day today. I have a 100 days left and I didn't get anything yet. I go out to the stores to attempt to start buying and I get so over whelmed that I don't know where to start. I was like freaking out and my mom just keeps telling me to wait until after my baby shower to start.which isnt until march. I?feel your pain. Good luck to everyone!
