  • hi op :j:j:j for being pregnant!!! Congratulations that must feel fantastic, am so jealous would love another one but nows not the right time financially or otherwise so at my time of life its prob not going to happen :( - anyway I digress!

    Can you ask the father to help you out or is that out of the question? Definately go to your ma's and stay there for a cuple of days of eing looked after if its at all possible! Next if it were me I would be 1. posting on freecycle and asking for baby bits, you will be surprised at ppls generosity! I would then go to netmums and look on the nearly new board, there are items people are giving away and also items for sale, and I might even be tempted to dpost on the families board. So many of us have been in this situation so would want to help you out - I was in a vey difficult financial position when I had mine so I really do know how you are feeling x

    Hi Joanne,

    Congratulations on the impending arrival. I know things are bad financially at the moment, but hope they get better for you very soon.
    If you've nothing decent to say, perhaps you shouldn't say anything.
