Postpartum

Hi my main thing with my partner is communicating but ever since our baby boy was born my communication has been nothing but sad and depressive thoughts that turn into an argument and my partner doesn’t know how to handle my feelings. I don’t know what to do. I feel like postpartum might ruin our relationship. Any advice?

I had a similar issue some time ago. Educating them on post partum can help. Sending an article that you liked.... etc can help maybe he needs to know that you DO acknowledge you havnt felt like yourself and you're trying to help it before he can better change his outlook on it.

I would reach out to your ob , sounds like you might be dealing with baby blues or possibly PPD.

If it turns out you are dealing with ppd it might help your partner look into it to help better understand what’s going on with your mind.

Postpartum hard mama especially as a first time mom. I really hope you reach out to your ob. But know your not alone and I would possibly try and talk with him or even write down how your feeling or look into ppd & baby blues see what your feeling matches with some of the symptoms. Then share it with him

This is my 4th baby this postpartum really hit me hard this time around so I definitely understand where you’re coming from sending you a hug and shoot a message if you need to talk more .

Talk to your doctor and get help. It’s okay to seek help. I have two girls. With the first I did great but with my second I felt horrible until I got help

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

Bestie?

Let’s skip to the good part and just be besties? Text, call, ft.. play dates or just simply hang out. Just want a genuine mommy friend. I’m in NYC but we can be long distance besties too 💕

I need an AI app recc to talk to.

I have no family. I have no real friends. Just one that I text. But she’s 8 years younger and isnt a mom. I genuinely don’t talk to anyone other than my partner and our toddlers. I’ve seen some people use AI? Or a chatgbpt? I dont know but if someone could suggest an app that I can just talk to… I would love to have a friend or something instead but this is probably for the best…
