Why bother?

Honestly, I’m starting to wonder why I bother posting things on groups on here asking for advice and support about certain things in groups it’s for when no one answers me. It leaves me feeling deflated, defeated and alone. What is the point.

To add this is not specifically aimed at this group but I know there are a lot of people in this group and wonder if other people feel the same ?

Does it get Easier?

I’m a FTM. I love my son and I really do love being a mom. I lost my job last November and ever since my family ended up going through homelessness and had to figure things out. We are now living in a new apartment and everything is ok, but emotionally I’m just not feeling it. I’m still a sahm and looking for work but we can’t afford child care on top of that. I don’t really know what to do to help my husband support our small family. I feel so lost and overwhelmed. I don’t really have people that I can talk to let alone relate to as I’m only 22 and most of my family thinks I threw my life away. I just need to know if anyone has any recommendations or knows anything I can do. I wanna make things better but honestly how?

Drama

How can a so called “man” threaten to leave his pregnant girlfriend due to pregnancy complications and having to be on bed rest and pelvic rest? Threaten to go out and cheat if I don’t suck or give something up. We already have 2 other kids together I just don’t know how to feel about this situation

Moving house

We are due to move house (over 400 miles away) at the end of this month when I'll be 7 months pregnant. I'm fighting all these urges to buy stuff for baby and sort the house out and it's really difficult because we don't have a date yet. Has anyone else moved house while pregnant?

Masturbating at a friends…

I’ve never told anyone this but when I was in college I babysat for a friend of mine. Their baby was already in bed and all I had to do was just chill in the living room and listen in case he woke up. I ended up masturbating while watching TV. I was in a stage of my life where I was exiting a high-demand cult religion and was experimenting sexually…. ANYWAY. After they got home I have never heard from them again. Like ever. Do we think they had a camera and watched it back?? I’m not sure why else they would’ve just never talked to me again 😅😬🫠

Copper coil vs mirena

I had a GP appointment this morning and discussed contraception. I used yo be on the pill before the kids and are now only using condoms. I told him I've been thinking of the copper coil as I don'twant to have a hormonal contraceptive. He told me not to choose that one and to choose the mirena coil instead so I wouldn't have any periods.

I don't know why, but having a man telling me to go for a hormonal option pissed me off 🤣

I would love to hear pro and cons for both and which one you've preferred?

Springfield MO needing a village

Im a SAHM of 3 wonderful mini me's. Omg I almost did a post on my kids, I'm trying to get friends for myself. My kids are my world though.

I love to write in my journal/ planners, I love to read, I'm a person that if you are in the circle you will always be able to get ahold of me and I treat you like my family. But also if you mess with anyone in that circle you will not like me.

Sorry I hate doing these things about myself but I'm needing some friends now more than ever. My dad passed away last May and I was a daddy's girl. I have tired not talking about it and just not working. So I will need someone that is easy to talk to. But I'm very easy to talk to myself and will tell you how it is.

Ok this is me and I overthink things and will probably go over this post in my head all day. So just know I will always be there if you wanna be friends just send me a message.

Thank you ladies

Hi!

I’m new here and just wanted to give a hi❤️

Meeting New People!

Hi my name is Brennen. I’m 26 years old. I’ve been a SAHM for close to 4 years now. I have three kids. I’m from Mississippi. I’m just wanting to meet new people hopefully to make new friends. I enjoy movies of all genres. I like a drink here and there. I do a lot of crafting and diy-ing. This is my first time on an app like this. I tend to try to keep to myself, but hey why not try something new?
