Any pregnant women on here going crazy with boredom from being in all of the time? I don’t have many friends here as new to Liverpool so don’t get out much and it’s making me feel crazy 😭

Any women feel the same? Always stuck in bored with nothing to do, would love to be able to grab a tea/coffee and food with someone but most think I’m scary because of my tattoos on my face 🤣 honestly I’m a good person and probably softer than most

Take advantage of the boredom and time to yourself cos once your baby is born you’ll have exactly zero minutes to yourself 😂😂 xx

I Actually can’t wait for my child to be here, I’ll have something to do all of the time which I adore. My partner works full time and I never see him so human interaction is low and I’m feeling so depressed and bored

It is awesome being with your little one all the time but there are times where you will definitely need a break and some adult conversation

Yeah I am going insane being inside. But, I’m almost 37 weeks and going outside alone scares me rn 😂

I love coffee and tattoos ! I can’t wait to finish my leg sleeves 😂

It’s driving me mad, honestly don’t know what to do with myself and all my “friends” aren’t really friends so no one to go out with

For what it's worth your tattoos look amazing, fully envious 🥺 but I get the while wanting to get out thing. I'm the same. Also used to the strange looks from being more alt and quite heavily tattooed 🥲😂

Family culture difference on money

Sorry this is long, I hope some of you get to the end and give advice!!!

So I’m a very thrifty person, things are tight at the moment, the cost of living crisis and my house is heated by oil so things are extortionate. We aren’t on the bread line but we aren’t flush, hubby might be made redundant so there is some financial pressure.

Sometimes I buy my sons something nicer, on the justification that I can sell it on after (♥️ vinted ♥️). I have also been planning on pretty much breaking even most of the baby things I bought from face book market place, side by crib, baby changing unit, etc.

Hubby and I have different money cultures with our families (he’s Indian, I’m British). I’m my family we don’t mix money, we would help each other out if someone was in trouble and will get each other gifts on special occasions. With hubby’s family money is much more fluid, they will give each other things worth thousands of £ just because.

Hubby’s brother bought him a new laptop and a new Google phone, he’s been very generous to hubby. Hubby hasn’t given the same back because brother is much richer.

Hubby and I mostly share finances. If it’s relevant I’m the higher earner.

Now to the point! My babies are so cute they’ve given hubby’s brother (currently single) baby rabies. He’s asked for our baby stuff when we’re done with it. He’s been so generous to hubby I feel really stingy saying no. But I’d never have bought some of the stuff if I wasn’t going to get a return on it - the thought makes me a bit anxious. If we gave all our baby stuff given the second hand value it still wouldn’t equal what the brother had given hubby.


I thought maybe I could give him some stuff but sell some stuff, but hubby said then his brother will just have to go out and buy that stuff, so I should name my price and ask his brother for the money. That makes me feel very uncomfortable, given how generous the brother has been to hubby.

So what do I do ladies? Give it all and suck it up? Give part of it and sell parts on Vinted/FB, or ask hubbys brother for money for it and be uncomfortable? Or do you see another solution?

No one is being entitled or rude here, just a culture difference I need to navigate.

Advice

Hi everyone! I honestly have 0 social queues when it comes to talking to anyone in general. I definitely have a hard time talking to other women and making new friends. I can 100% relate. I just don’t like the idea of texting or meeting up but when I do I’m like “oh this isn’t bad.” Any advice? I also have a hard time getting comfortable and just feeling judged by other women😅 I’m also 19 so maybe making a change in this now will help in the future making mom friends/friends in general. Thanks in advance!
