can describe my day. I spent the day registering with my mom and sister, and now feel promptly like I need to get really drunk, or go to sleep and wake up like today never happened. It was horrible- just completely overwhelming. I have no idea what to get, the Babies R Us's selections were awful compared to what i had found that I liked online, and I left feeling like we spent hours getting nothing accomplished. I think the reason I feel like crying/screaming/etc is because if I can't even pick out a dumb bottle or bathtub, how the heck am I going to take care of a little kid???
I think I need to step far far away from it and go back to it when I am a little less overwhelmed.
Additionally why does today suck? Today was my due date. I am thrilled for Lester, and excited, but it stings a lot to think that I would have had a baby any day now.
And the good news- we passed Viability day. Our baby could be saved if God forbid, preterm labor occurred. There would be a long journey, and lots of health issues- but our baby is now viable. (YAY!).
I am up at my parents- so that is all I can say for now. I may lay down, or cry, or something- I cannot believe how overwhelming today way. Registering sucks my ass.
Also- anyone have any thoughts on Avent vs. Dr. Browns? Tub Shapes? anything? grrr

Oh Carly, registering is so overwhelming. I am sorry it wasn't much fun. I can totally help you if you want, just ask! ((hugs))
Oh Sweetie, I'm sorry it wasn't any fun for you. Can you go with a girlfriend who has already done this so they can help you out a bit?
oh sweetie. relax and take it day by day. get yourself "baby bargins" from the book store -- the thing is a lifesaver. rates every brand and model of every baby thing out there. and if bru is giving you a hassle, try buy buy baby in cherry hill. a lot more higher end options. gl!
I'm sorry it was so overwheling, but don't worry, you will be a wonderful mom to Lester :)
Definitely bring a friend who already has a baby...she'll know what you need and what you don't...experience can go a long way. You're going to be a fantastic mom...no one is born knowing what kind of baby bathtub to pick out. ((HUGS))
