So I am 17 weeks pregnant, I'm not in denial by any means but I think I'm still getting my head around the fact come February I'm going to be responsible for a child..
I feel like I'm being really ungrateful because my family are really happy for me and have already started getting a few little bits, but my grandma text me the other day asking if needed any baby grows cause she's going shopping the next day and if so what size .. I told her thank you but don't worry cause I don't want to get lots of stuff and then find out something is wrong or anything bad happens so I end up surrounded by a load of stuff I don't need.. also o want to wait until I know the sex cause I don't just want a load of plain white or yellow/green stuff. My dad came to visit a week or so ago and him and my step mum have offered to get the cot, which is lovely but it seems they've picked it for me which is kind of them but it's not really the one I'd have chosen.. I've just had a message from my dad of a picture of a pram, it's nice enough but again not something I'd chose but also this is my first and potentially my only child and as much as my step Mum and my dad like a bargain as much as anyone I think they feel I need everything/as much as possible second hand and being my potentially only child I don't really want that. I'm greatful for them to think and find ways to help but I just want to make some decisions myself and buy what I like for my child. At the I end of the day which ever cot/bed I get I'm going to have to look at it for the next 4 ish years and want to like what I'm looking at. I don't even think I'm looking for a response but just somewhere to have a moan.. sorry x
