So I’ve hit a financial rut at the worst possible time. I’m completely broke after all my bills are paid for the next month, there’s no wiggle room for anything extra, not even groceries. I’m a little stressed as I still need to get some

Baby items such as a few newborn outfits, newborn hats, scratch mitts, Muslin swaddle or light blanket as she is due in July and some little slippers.

Does anyone have any suggestions on where to

Find very cheap baby things? Are the things I listed really nessesary? We do have some hand me downs already such as a few diaper shirts and a couple leggings that are newborn size. I also bought one sleeper at the gap the other day and a pair of newborn shorts. Is that enough for the begging of her life? I don’t have a sun hat for her yet but I do have one little baby hat. I’m feeling like we don’t have enough but when you don’t have money it’s kind of hard to get more. Unless we rely on gifts from our family before she is due. Is anyone else struggling financially and getting so close to their babies due date? How do you cope with the stress? I try to ignore the fact so that I’m not stressing but it’s hard. Also my husband was laid off from his job so he hasn’t been able to help at all with getting baby stuff unfortunately.
