Introduction

Hello! I’m a mama of two awesome boys but three if you count my husband 😆

In 2019 I had two surgeries which spun my body out of control. I am now diagnosed with Hypermobility Elhers Danlos Syndrome, Central Sensitization Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, along with many others.

Sometimes my day to day is incredibly hard, especially when I’m in a flare. It is always nice to meet other mama’s who experience much of the same thing.

Hey! Yes I do count husband's! Lol Thanks for joining! After having my son in 2013 my body never recovered from labor and has spiraled out ever since. Back then pain was looked at differently so I still don't have a very accurate diagnosis and everything they have tried on me has made me worse. Now I am 37 weeks with a little girl that we never expected to have lol This journey has been interesting! Welcome to the group!

Hi! Sounds like you’ve been through the ringer, too. I’ve been sick since I got COVID in October 2020. I am a shell of the person I once was. How did you get diagnosed with central sensitization syndrome? I was listening to a podcast the other day about that disease and it’s quite fascinating. I was told only the Mayo Clinic can diagnose that. Is this true?

Vitamin supplements

Morning :)

What vitamin supplements are you giving your baby once the drop below 500mls of formula? My little one isn’t there yet but thought I’d look into it before he is!

Almost 3 years of loneliness

I wonder if any experienced mamas can give any advice.

My little boy is almost 3, and I've suffered from being lonely since he was born really.

My family and my husband's family live very far from us, and my family are not very dedicated or committed, so I rarely get to spend much time with them. My husband's family we see 1 or 2 times per year due to distance. My husband's job is very long hours and he's at work most of the time.

I feel that I've followed all the advice I can and yet I'm still spending the vast majority of my time alone with my little boy. I have made a few friends, but people have their own lives and families so seeing friends maybe only happens once or twice per week maximum for a couple of hours, and sometimes I can go for weeks without seeing these friends. My pre-baby friends are none existent now. I take my little boy out every day for multiple hours to parks or play groups, just so we're not alone in the house. But I find even this is becoming such an effort now, because I just feel so lonely.

I keep thinking about returning to work just for some adult company, but then I think that's unfair on my child and selfish of me as he'd have to go to nursery for long hours.

It really feels hard on weekends when we're alone and we go out and everyone is out with families and friends, and we don't have that.

Looking for friends 🩷

Looking for some mam friends with littles about the same age as my boy (3)

Wondering if anyone would be looking to meet up with the kids for play dates, walks out etc?

None of my friends have kids so would nice to meet some people who do! 🥰
