I know how you feel. I wish I never quit my job before I got pregnant. I'm so scared I'm going to give birth with having nothing. I have 95 days left. Your not a bad mommy an if someone tells you you are they can go to hell cause that's not right. Keep your head up just find a bassinet for now they are cheaper an then save up what you can to buy a crib later. Good luck hun

Don't stress it look in the news paper, on Craigslist,  thrift stores.  You can find real nice stuff for cheap.  There's nothing wrong with second hand stuff I shop at thrift stores all the time I get tripple the stuff for my money it's just worth it. And baby can sleep in a bassinet for the first 4 months or a play pen.

Btw you're not a bad mom you're trying to get everything ready so you can be a great mom which is understandable. Just check into many of the options the other mothers are giving you

Dang I wish you lived in Indiana. I'm apart of a program where they would help you get a brand new crib and pack and play.

Yes u would Def suggest once upon a child. Or on Facebook there are sometimes groups around your area that have pages for garage sales and that is the best place to get most of your baby stuff for super cheap. You are not a terrible mommy! do not feel like that hun!
