SAHM Blues
So so fuckin annoyed, because I’ve been a SAHM for almost a year now, and I feel I take on 90% of the load for the baby and my entire family sides with my BF and acts like he’s some superhero and does so much for our son, even though he could be doing SO much more. I don’t get any breaks, any days/nights out, haven’t seen my friends since my baby shower, can’t take a shower without asking, on night shift every night, cook every meal for our child, pay for everything, etc. I’m so tired of it. It’s ridiculous.
I feel like I don’t even have a personality anymore and can’t even pursue my interests/hobbies. I love my son more then words can describe and I feel terrible for the way I feel but I feel so fuckin robbed, that I actually have his father in his life and am still taking on so much of the load myself. Like this is absolute bs I can’t stand it anymore at this point??? Idek what to do.

You are not alone. I feel the exact same way. I've decided to put my child in daycare soon so I can have time to care for myself. I'm tired of feeling & looking like crap because I'm exhausted 99% of the time.
it’s comforting to know I’m not alone, but I am sorry you share these feelings, because they aren’t fun, and I know how frustrating it is. It’s like I feel selfish I even think like this, but at the same time, I know we deserve more. I think that’s a great plan you have🥰 I’m happy for you that you soon will get time for yourself!!
