Venting…
Where can I start? I’m 3 months postpartum and I feel like I have so much going on in my life right now mentally, emotionally and financially. Every day I feel overwhelmed, sad, or upset and barely happy. I am a stay at home mama of 3 and I feel like this is too much for me right now. The problem is that we are struggling right now financially and I can’t say “oh hey I am going to get a job” because in reality I won’t be able too with 3 children, no family near us, and my husband work schedule. So the best option is for me to stay at home. But that’s not the only issues. I am also having relationship issues with my husband, we can’t barely see eye to eye. Sometimes I feel like we are so different. He tells me I’m controlling, insecure and today he told me “I don’t like anyone”And that kills me. Because I don’t think it’s true. Also my oldest who’s almost 10 is giving me such a hard time with his behavior and attitude. It just not fair that I am not able to enjoy my new born baby to the max because of all this issues. I told my husband how I felt and he just tell me it’s temporary. I don’t get the support I want from him. I might need to go see a therapist or something.

Hi. I feel exactly the same with being overwhelmed. I have an 8 year old, 6 year old and a 4 year old. My newborn is 11 weeks old. My eldest also has attitude with me. His so sweet and kind at school and to others but with me his so rude and short. I try my best to talk quietly to him and try and figure what's wrong but his go to at the moment is *shutup* or *whatever* my kids have only just gone back to school today after the summer holidays. I think its better for them when they have some routine. I don't socialise or go out much. I'm feeling isolated and upset. I recently lost a close family member and I'm just so sad and everything is completely hard right now. Feel free to message if you'd like (:
