In my experience, we are a lot stronger and able than we usually give ourselves credit for. We can make it through all sorts of intensely stressful periods in life ~ so, rest assured, you CAN do this!!

When I was pregnant, I gained a lot of comfort and amazement in the fact that I had a little baby growing inside of me. They grow SO fast! As a result, we grow too. Emotionally, physically, and spiritually (in some ways). Try to get rest now ~ your body needs it! Make sure to drink lots of water every day, milk, and eat lots of veggies, fruits, and healthy proteins. Continue to go for daily walks, stretch, and go to local second-hand child stores. They have LOTS of reasonably priced new-looking clothes, blankets, highchairs, bouncers, books, music, and cribs. It's definitely worth checking out, to help you get into the right mood & get more excited about being a mommy.

Gentle hugs ~ I hope that your mom becomes more supportive to you soon. Very best wishes to you...take care!
