Is it just me…

Or does anyone else just feel like an absolute failure sometimes?

I do have my days where I feel like this but they’re becoming few and far between now. I know my worst was when my boy was at the height of his health issues as thought it was something I was doing wrong. Please feel free to message if you need a mama to mama chat xx

I feel like this often, like I’ve brought her into this world as my choice and yet I’m not doing things well enough and it’s my fault when she’s upset. And then I worry when I can’t settle her that she doesn’t love me like other people talk about with their own little ones 😓 it’s tough but thankfully I have more good days than bad and am able to remind myself that hormones and lack of sleep have a cruel way of making things worse!! Hang in there mumma, you’re not alone and if it’s hard it’s probably because you’re an amazing mum 💛

Thank you so much both! It’s so tough at time. We’ve had three really good days and nights and today, it just felt like everything I was doing was wrong. It’s nice to know I’m not alone, feeling like this.

Yep I cried today as we were doing tummy time and I didn’t even notice for a second she was face down in her own sick!! I cried for about 15 minutes and told my wife I was a bad mother 😪😪

A lot normally but pretty much everyday through the sleep regression, I think it may be the exhaustion making me think I’m doing every-single-solitary thing wrong…as apposed to just a few things😂🙄

Yes! I feel like I've developed a bad sleeping habit for my daughter. She's used to me bouncing on a yoga ball with her to get her to sleep 😂

Has anyone else had issues with their friends that aren't pregnant or have kids?

I have a friend at work and we've become really close over the years. But ever since I become pregnant she just doesn't understand anything I'm going through which is fine except for the fact that the past few days I have been exhausted physically and socially. We have been helping another friend out for about a month now and we've had to keep him entertained as he's going through a rough time right now and it's drained me socially . my friend at work is frustrated because I'm not talking a lot and I'm exhausted and she doesn't understand why and I'm just curious if anybody else has had issues with friends that are not going to the same thing or have gone through the same thing as you connecting with you because she's literally mad at me. She stopped talking to me at work today and I just don't understand what to do.

31 weeks pregnant and lonely

How to deal with loneliness in pregnancy when your boyfriend goes out with his friends drinking 😅🥲 I only have three friends, two are never really free and one lives back in Liverpool and has her own set of friends where she goes to raves and goes on holiday with them lol. My boyfriend is going out soon for the night as it’s sunny and I’ll just be sat here crying like every single time! When does it stop 🤣

STD rates and body count

Saw an interesting video and I’d love to hear everyone’s thoughts on this topic!

So std rates are at an all time high as we all know. Do you think the mindset that body count doesn’t matter has contributed to the significant increase of STDs and HIV?

Secondly if someone says that body count doesn’t matter do you believe they are less likely to practice safe sex compared to people who believe in more traditional values?

I can’t put all the combinations in the poll so feel free to comment just yes/no answers
