I don’t have enough family to create a baby registry ( I made one solely to keep track of everything I should get) that people would actually purchase from, and I don’t have enough people who would show up to my baby shower either. I did my gender reveal all alone, and I’m starting to feel really sad because I wanted to throw a party for my baby. But I’ve come to the realization that nobody would truly attend.

I’m not an influencer or anything, so I can’t just post about it and get support like that. I’ve honestly just been really sad because my baby and I are extremely alone. 🤍

Don’t feel sad I too have the same reasoning for not having a baby shower not much family members so far with my registry 2 close friends have purchased off my registry but I’ve bought majority of the items off of it is a sad feeling and realization that you don’t have a village like most people do but it’s okay if you want I’d be more than happy to purchase something off your registry!

I've been feeling the same way. It's really sad and isolating. I 'have people' I have 'a village' but no one in my family (I have a very large family I'm 1 of 9 children and have lots of neices, nephews and cousins) that'd show up for me or even consider coming for so many reasons. It truly does feel crap. I am greatful I have my partner and he is my rock. I can only imagine how hard it must be without a solid partner either.
I'm 25 weeks pregnant feel free to message if you ever want to chat x
