Lonely

I love my little boy so much, he's the love of my life. I love being his mum.

I am so lonely.

I only have a few friends but they're always busy. I've realised I can't just reach out and speak to them. They were my best friends but they're just not anymore.

It makes me so sad.

What do I do? How do I put myself out there? I'm a bit of an introvert and I find it hard to meet people.

Any advice would be lovely.

I’ve also found I haven’t spoken to my supposedly close friends hardly at all since I’ve had my second baby in Feb , all there kids are older now , it’s upset and annoyed me but I also think fuck them 🤣 I think baby groups would be a great place to start with ? I plan on going to some soon I think

I know exactly hope you feel. I’m in your position too. But my supposedly best friend is due in October. I always have to reach out first otherwise I don’t get a message. I did have “close friends” but some of them only message/call me when they want something, even then they don’t even ask how my son is. If you ever need a chat. I’m always here and I’d happily be your friend🫶🏼 sending my love. We’ve got this girl

Mama needs new friends ✨

Hey mamas 🤍 I'm going to be honest — I'm at a season in my life where I'm craving real, genuine friendship. The kind where we actually check on each other. Where conversations go both ways. Where we can laugh, vent, cry, and just *be* without it feeling one-sided.

I'm a stay at home mom of 6 (yes, 6! 👏🏼) and my days are full but my cup feels a little empty in the friendship department. I'm looking for women who get it — the chaos, the beauty, the exhaustion, all of it.

If you're a mom who values deep, reciprocal friendship and you're also out here looking for your people — drop a 👋 below. Let's actually get to know each other. 🤍

Help

Really embarrassing!
I'm a first time mummy at 35, she's 16 month and everytime I sneeze or cough I lose control of my bladder and pee a little 😔, I've had countless utis since having her aswell! Will it get better? Or do I need to invest in panty liners? 😆

Leaving your baby

Has anyone else not left their baby to be looked after by someone else (not dad) yet? I still don't feel ready but am being told I should be by now

Random but when you use a vibrator do you need to hold your lips open for it to touch the bean ?

It gets annoying because even if I open my legs I still need to hold the lips open to touch the bean and I have to do it the entire time my lips are literally sealed closed 🤣
