I need to wear my glasses in the shower just so I can see my legs and feet 8,u
I also won't see stuff I've dropped or spilled on the floor without them on.
Then I get yelled at for not caring if I make a mess or not.
I CAN'T SEE the mess so how would I clean it >Bu
I didn't have glasses for years. If I went to a store, I had to memorize what color someone was wearing so if we got separated, I'd be able to find them.
I could only see giant blurs 8u
I'm sorry ><
I'll keep trying to send you good luck 8,u

We have the opposite eyes mem, I am shortsighted so I can read words and stuff close up just fine haha. I'm really glad because it would drive me mad the other way. I can't look at a computer screen with my glasses on, it gives me such a headache.
I ended up doing the crying all day thing this weekend instead lol. ahhhhh. I just feel like we've let him down already and he hasn't even been born. Now he's going to have to come back to a place where there's no heating in the middle of winter, there's mould all over the walls which just comes back every time we clean it and is probably going to give him asthma later in life, we don't have room for a nursery so he's going to be squashed into a half-nursery with all our other furniture and stuff that we can't move out of here because there's nowhere else to put it, the new upstairs neighbour is so loud he'll probably keep waking him up every single night, going outside is going to be a whole production because all these corridors we have to exit through aren't big enough for a person to pass by a buggy, aaaand my parents still know where we live so there's nothing stopping them sending me more half-threatening "gifts" or even turning up and trying to see him.
And it just feels so stupid and unfair because it's not like we can't afford something better. If we were just still poor, I would accept it easier. But we're not that bad off anymore, I worked 7 days a freaking week for two years so we could prepare for this, we can afford a nice family home if someone would just buy our freaking house.
Anyway, even if they do, it's kind of too late now. The average time for signing paperwork will already take us over my due date. We could get a sale today and he would still probably have to come back here after birth.

I'm really sorry all this has happened ><
I really hope some good luck will come your way ;;
If it helps any at all, our house is really bad. No insulation, cracks under the walls so critters can sneak in, more spiders living here than people 8u
As a matter of fact, my mom and I were attacked by a giant grasshopper last night uB

Aw, sorry to hear about the stress, jacob. :(
Hope it'll make you feel a little better, kid's don't care about posessions, really. Especially the first few months, all he'll want is a happy mom. Don't stress too much about the house, don't stress about buggy's, it'll all work out. Really, all babies do is poop and sleep. Get some diapers and take plenty of rest yourself. As long as you can. <3 Hormones are also buggers, really. Those want to you clean and finalize your nest. It does stink when you can't, but I really don't think you're already a bed parent. On the contrary, you care. Think that's all you can do atm. :) Air out the space, send someone else in to kill the moulds. Get some warm winter clothes for yourself and the baby and you will all be fine. <3
Honestly, best way to put a baby to sleep is the vaccuum, don't try to be too quiet at first.
Sending some love and house selling vibes your way.

I had a memory from when I was a kid.
I was playing with my Lion King toys but I didn't have a Timon.
I was using a torn crayon wrapper as Timon.
My dad noticed and asked what I was doing, so I told him.
He was so sad to see me using a crayon wrapper as a toy.
He said "Why didn't you tell me!? I would have bought you a toy!"
I was happy with the crayon wrapper, but my dad was upset.
He felt like he failed me because I was playing with a wrapper xD

Well said,jolien, I was about to comment it myself,babies don't really care for anything other than food, sleep and a dry booty, so it might work out.
@Moi: Lol, you're a cat, playing with the wrapper instead of a toy xD Many kids prefer simple, everyday things as toys. I was playing with pins and buttons XD

Yesss, buttons. And really, babies don't play. Up 'till their a year, a spare spoon or set of keys (preferably your keys and phone and whatever, but a spare might work for a little while).
My baby turns 10 tomorrow. And he's all giddy, feels like a big boy. I'm kinda... dunno. Mixed feelings.

Yeah, babies just have the grabbing reflex and such. And they flail their limbs everywhere XD
Why do you have mixed feelings?

When I was a kid, I played with fire xD;
I was always lighting matches and burning stuff.
Even now I really like fire and want to set stuff on fire.
I would never, though.
A friend posted something once and I said something about lighting whatever on fire and she responded "That's because you're a pyro xD"
My sister turns 15 in November. We think she has a boyfriend at school and she wrote a story involving sex and my mom freaked out.
I told her when I was that age, I was writing BL xD
I actually made a joke the other day and my sister was like "Pfft haha penis!" and I was like "Haha yeah! Don't ever let Mom know you said that word 8u"

Haha, it does sound like you might have pyro tendencies
Luckily you have common sense alongside that
Some people don't and they get in trouble.
Well, she's almost 15, of course she's writing about sex XD Even younger kids start thinking about it, that's natural. I was the same, lol.
That reminds me my sister was covering for me about my virginity XD and now I talk with my mom about very intimate stuff, haha. We don't overshare though. If one is uncomfortable, we drop it.
