Time is going by so slow.

I'm 18 weeks and I don't works or anything so basically I just hang around the house or go walk or something. But I don't have anything to actually keep me busy so it just seems like this pregnancy is going by so slow. Any advice?

Urgh.. i know how that feels. Im only 12 weeks but i havent worked throughout my pregnancy (until today as i start ny new job). I feel like i have everything planned for when baby gets her already! It helped me going to see people during the day.. family or friends just something to break the day up until my partner go home from work.
I hope you find something occupy your time :-)

I haven't worked since 17 weeks due to swelling from being on my feet 9 hours or more at work .. so since then I have cleaned up my house, I looked at deals on the internet for lightly used baby items, got a crib and all her other furniture, I organized her baby clothes just waiting closer to November to wash them all. It's hard finding things to do I get really bored sometimes. You tube has birth videos and I love watching birthday live, teen mom or I'm having thier baby on tv.. even though some of the shows are drama. I'm 21 years old and 25 weeks pregnant I don't have many friends except my fiances family and mine but they all are very supportive. We have a store called dirt cheap where I live and they get stuff that's new in the box from.target, Walmart, kohls, everywhere basically and mark things half off to start with this is where I got a lot of my baby girls things ... It helps to find things to do to keep busy my grandma taught me how to make a baby blanket and that kept me busy! Well hope you have a wonderful pregnancy And good luck !

Do you think there's any way to get part time job? I know bring pregnant it might be hard. I worked through out my pregnancy even some overtime, and did things around the house to prepare for baby. I felt my pregnancy went by extremely fast. Try to stay as busy as possible, but of course find time to relax and enjoy yourself.
