I feel alone

I feel extremely alone and made to feel like when I’m asking for the bare minimum (I feel like) it gets taken out of context and I’m always feeling like the worst person and everything is my fault. I’m tired of constantly feeling alone and doing everything alone. I don’t want to do this anymore

Random thoughts

Is anyone else afraid that they won’t be able to make it on their own? I’m living with my mom and have been since I was 6 months pregnant. My ex and I broke up around the time I was 4 months pregnant which is why I moved in with my mom for extra support. Looking at the price of rent , my car note, insurance and othe...

Angry About Honest Answers

I have observed that some individuals post pictures asking if we can detect a line, and if people cannot see it, they become increasingly hostile and unkind. While I understand that this is a difficult process to go through, if you find it distressing, I recommend that you do not post asking. There is a difference b...

Nesting non existent

Is it just me or I haven’t really been nesting? I’m 36+3 and at this point I feel like I should be like other pregnant women around the same week as me and be like cleaning like crazy and stuff but I’m not? I’ve got everything ready for baby already - washed and folded clothes away, sort the nursery out, bought eve...

Lonely

No one told me how lonely pregnancy would be.. I am seriously struggling right now. The father chose to not be in my babies life and now I’m going through this all alone.. but we are moms who aren’t allowed to have feelings or bad days and need to suck it up right? 😭😭😭😭

I love by baby but sometimes I think what I have I done

I don’t regret having my son and I know over time this feeling will disappear as I embraced motherhood as he’s only 3 months on Sunday. But sometimes I can’t help but daze out in disbelief at my life 😂 I feel like I don’t have anyone except from him outside my family (excluding his dad we aren’t together) my life…

My relationship doesn’t feel great atm.

Just feels like we are just mum and dad who live together. Nothing more than that. It just feels a bit at a loose end and I don’t have the energy.

In need of Mom friends

Hey Mamas, I've been really struggling to connect with the people in my life since becoming a parent. I feel like I'm outgrowing the friendships around me. And if I'm being honest I've never felt so alone. I'd really love to meet some friends who get the struggles and most importantly the joys of parenthood. 🩷

Crazy weekends.

Mi two daughters are really good when I'm by myself with them, but during weekends, this becomes a whole zoo. Is someone else in this kind of situation?

Grocery trips

Do you ever find yourself talking to your self (out loud) when/if you get the chance to go without your babies? I always talk to my daughter when we’re at the store and if she stays home with dad while I go I always catch myself talking out loud or saying “Excuse us” 🙃😅

Feeling lonely

Is this normal? I feel silly and guilty for feeling like this, for feeling lonely during this pregnancy even though I’m surrounded by a very supportive partner, family and friends. I guess just everything changing, not being able to go out and do things like I used to, feeling boring to some extent, my body changin...
