I really appreciate all of your guys advice. I feel so alone in all of this. I love my mom to pieces, but she is not the type to get excited about shopping for baby stuff. I mean she does, but I have to ask. I just figured since this was her first grand baby she would be calling me everyday. She is the type that doesn't what to be "bugging me" but in all reality it kind of hurts and gives the signal that she doesn't care. It is so hard to plan for a baby when you are not sure what to plan for. I am scared, am I even ready for this?? How do moms do it? How do they know what to do?? I hear schedules are a must, but how do you do that?
Update on the bump/baby....
It is definitely growing. I really need to take some pictures, but no told me that my thighs would get massive too so I am a little self-conscious now with thunder thighs and bump. Not to mention my Pamela Anderson boobs. I have more cleavage now then EVER. I have to be careful when I bend over in fear one will pop out! I am not sure I was prepared for all the body changes before they started happening. I feel like the bump has been growing this whole time, but my cousin Wendy mentioned on Sunday that I actually looked like I had a bump. Which relieved my mom because she has been worried I haven't been growing enough. I am 18wks along which is 5months and wish the little baby was here. I can feel him move more and more now. The flutters are getting stronger and more consistent. Other than hearing the heartbeat it is one of the coolest things to be able to feel him. I just wish Brady could feel it, but he will soon.
Maybe i will get brave and take some pictures......

I am always up for shopping!!!! I love you so much and know you will make a great mommy!!!! I hope I get to feel your little man kick sometime! I miss you! LOVE YOU!
Your fears about being a "mom" are normal. But let me tell you, once you hold him, you just know what to do. As for schedules, every child is different. See what he is like when he comes out. Izzy was much easier to get on a schedule, and Max took a little longer. You're going to be a FANTASTIC mom. Call your mom and invite her to go shopping. Maybe she just needs to see that you want her to be a part of this, and then she'll start trying more.
YES! Photo session!! ;-)
Kristina, you seriously look amazing for being 5 months along. I can't wait until you have an even bigger bump - you will be so cute.
Oh Moi, you make me laugh. I think everyone has those same fears. I just try to set them aside and remember how grateful I am to be pregnant in the first place. I'm trying to just roll with the punches and take things as they come. Just try to relax and enjoy it. What you're feeling is completely normal!
I would love to see your baby bump I think they are so cute!! You are so funny I miss hanging out with you. If you ever need a shopping partner I would love to go.
