There is a lady in my city that is throwing a community baby shower for two pregnant women who can't afford any baby things and don't know anyone in town. This is honestly the nicest thing I've seen in a while and it restored a little of my faith in humanity. She's posting all over the online classifieds, trying to get as many people as she can to come (even if they can't bring anything) to support these two girls.

I have such a heavy support network in my family, even if I've only got a couple of friends, and I can't imagine having no one to lean on during all of this. I'm not entirely sure of their situations (I've just gotten involved today) but all either of them has so far is some baby clothes. I started crocheting them some baby blankets right away, and I'm going to spend the rest of the week cruising the second hand stores for furniture.

It's just SO nice! What a wonderful thing to do for these girls! I think it may be a surprise party, and it'll definitly be shocking. The lady organizing is trying to get 40 people to come!

What a lovely idea. Those two ladies are going to be so surprised and made up with the party. Nice to hear some good news once in a while.

That is so amazing. What the community and what you are doing for these women who are less fortunate is very considerate of you. It just warms my heart knowing that there are still good people out there that go out of their way for strangers. That just brightened my day. Thank you for sharing.

That is such a wonderful thing to do. It's great that you are getting involved in it!

Like you I have a great family support system (both with DH's family and my own) and can't imagine having to go through my pregnancy without them.
