Struggling

Anyone else have melts downs while your baby is having a meltdown. Some days I’m just tired of always being alone. I am mom 25/8 and it’s exhausting. I feel guilty about feeling this way and I love my baby to death. Some days I just wish I could just flash back to when it was just me no baby. That feeling of no responsibility no one relying on me.

I was just wondering if I will feel this way after my baby is born 😢 was just telling my mom, in a few weeks I’ll be responsible for another whole human being. You’re not alone.

I was also struggling and had those feelings. My baby is one year old now and everything is so different. I do not feel that motherhood is draining or I am alone. I am not sure why, maybe because my son is more mobile, he does not need me to hold him all the time, we are out more often because he naps less. He is also a lot more fun. 🙂 I got to know other mums with babies of similar age. I do not know if it gives you reassurance but please cheer up a bit, it is going to get easier and you will truly enjoy being a mum. I am sending you lots of love. If you are really struggling do not feel ashamed of contacting your doctor (I did).

I'm a sahm and I feel this so often. It gives me serious mom guilt but I miss my freedom. It's only natural. You're definitely not alone in feeling this way!

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 🤣
