Hi. Anyone else feeling very lonely and wondering if having a baby was the right thing to do? I miss my old life and freedom so much! When the afternoon gets here I get really sad and lonely and start getting anxious that this is my life forever and I’ll never have any alone time or freedom again.
Hi all So my LO is now around 2 weeks old. We have had endless amounts of visitors to the house all of who which mean well with offers of help, food and baby minding. However does anyone else feel like it’s all a bit much and then feel guilty for feeling that way as they are only wanting to help. However I feel tha...
Anybody else just have those days where they don’t want to be a mom ? Some days are just soooo frustrating when you are the primary parent and you do everything most days. I’m just so exhausted. I barely get a break, don’t have friends to even have a night out. It’s just me and my toddler 🙃
when did you find your solid friends in motherhood? im so jealous of everyone that has their one solid mom friend & i feel so isolated and lonely with no one to talk to about my baby other than family. Im only 21 so i feel like this is a super weird stage for me.
Hey! Anyone else getting separation anxiety and an urge to constantly be around their partner? I don’t know what is up with me is it my hormones or what 🫠25 weeks today 🤍
I've been different my whole life and I've never wanted to be necessarily. I'm the og hipster and have always been a influencer type person even before social media. But I got some mad haters, especially my inlaws because I encourage my husband who is a wild ass man but also like super creative and he worked his ass...
Just wondering what is considered normal or not. My son does not seem to care when we’re reunited or does not miss me when I’m gone. Is this normal ?
Idk if it’s normal to just feel so gloomy & over it but the way people portray their lives & significant others makes me feel like I can’t relate. Like I’m bored, feel overwhelmed and stuck everyday.
I’m so happy. But feel so lonely in new motherhood. And can’t believe I don’t have someone to go thru this with. It just bums me out.
All I am is a mom. A fucking mom. I love being a mom but that's all I am. I have no friends, family, anything. I cry all the time because I'm so lonely and miserable.
I’m 30 weeks pregnant and feel so down, I feel incredibly lonely and I’m going through a hard time this pregnancy, I’m monitored twice a week due to placenta issues I work full time and I have a toddler causing mayhem it’s all getting a bit much for me. My partner works all the time and when he isn’t working his a...
Anyone else have a toddler who is suddenly very needy. Crying when you aren’t holding him and near him at all times and when someone leaves the room he loses it?
Does anyone else’s partner doesn’t spend any time with them? I constantly feel so alone besides my baby. Literally have a house that is so empty because he’s never here emotionally mentally and barely physically.
I feel isolated and trapped, I have no friends my family like in a different town and my partner works nights, I see my partner maybe 2-4 hours a day and he doesn’t help me with my 8 months old, I love my daughter so much but I sometimes want to hide away. I feel like a single parent. I miss my family and want to mo...
I'm gonna start off by saying I'm not one to care much about news or current events... So right now I have an assignment to define the word rebellious in my own words, which I'm going to define in a good light but I need to think of a person from the past 20 years that's rebellious (still alive) and answer how and w...
How do you cope with feeling alone I am finding it really hard at the moment but I seem to be snapping at the ones closest to me and I feel like I’m pushing them away how do I stop that feeling of feeling so alone that I do just want to push everyone away and feel alone if anyone gets what I’m trying to say I’m 32 w...
I have a 1 month old and feel like I am genuinely struggling with everything at the moment. Baby won’t settle and I feel like I’m doing everything wrong 😢 I want to be really happy and enjoy baby but it’s just so hard I’m literally just hanging on and in survival mode. Is anyone else feeling the same? I have…
Does anyone else ever wish they were a single mom? I hate asking for permission to do things, he complies but I miss doing what I please as I please. I miss working, I miss making money, I miss my old self. Rant over.
I had my second baby 3 months ago and I just don’t feel that strong motherly love and connection unlike with my first… I didn’t want a second child and honestly I can not do it! I really really don’t like having two kids and I feel awful! Is this feeling going to pass 😭 I just feel like my entire life has been…
I got fired from my job at the end of April when I was almost four months pregnant. I haven’t been able to find a new job (no one wants to hire a pregnant woman) so I’m at home by myself a lot. My husband works full time so obviously he has to leave during the day. I don’t have a lot of friends since moving states a...
