Depression

I’m having mental breakdown. I just punched the cement and busted both my hands. I’m drowning… idk if I can do this called life anymore. I love my 3 girls but I think they’re better off without me. If my family ever sees this just know I tried. I fought as long as I could. This is no one’s fault. I cried and begged for help. Just to get told “you’ll be okay” I been told everyone I’m not okay. I’ve had enough.

Hey mama, I’m sure we’ve all been in your shoes and felt your exact feelings.

Reach out to someone you confide in and get extra support. We’re here with you, please feel free to reach out to me if you need someone to vent to.

Keep fighting . You got this ! You have to take one day at a time. You’re def not alone! Your girls need you more than you know . I’m also here if you want or need to chat ! 🫶🏾

I feel miserable as well today, do you want to have someone to hear you? We could cry together

I’m here if you wanna talk I completely understand about depression it’s not something to play with it’s real and some people don’t understand that at all

You got this mama. Depression sucks but your girls need you! I promise. If in the US then please call or text 988. It's the national suicide and crisis line. Also, you may benefit from a peer support to help you navigate your mental health. They're totally free and can be utilized through text, call, or video (your choice). Message me if you want a referral.

Ok I really need an update 💜💜 you are loved and you are important.

yess please I agree!! ❤️❤️

Hi baby please let us know you're still with us. I know it seems so bleak and hopeless right now, and it seems like you're trapped in an endless tunnel but everything must end at some point, even those tunnels, meaning there's always a way out. Sometimes it takes a little more help and a little more of everything to find it but it's there. You're not alone in your feelings, even though it may seem that way you're not! Look at everyone here that feels your plight, we hear and see you. Just let us know you're still with us ♥️

When you do let us know you're okay we can work on getting some help together okay?

Wdy think of this for a toddler to learn word construction?

I'm open to anything else to start teaching him to read and write. He's 3!

Car seat crying

My 6 month old PANICS the second I put him in a car seat and screams, cries, chokes and recently even projectile vomited on a 14 minute drive. It’s gotten to the point I don’t even bring him out unless it’s to a doctors appointment. I’m a stay at home mom with no family in my state and it has been very isolating. We’ve tried 3 different car seats with no improvement. Has anyone had a baby who hated the car seat? Any advice? This started at 3 months. I will add it does seem worse when he’s tired. He does cry on every trip though. He only contact naps and co sleeps so he reaches for me and will not sleep in the car seat.

Vanilla extract

Has anyone used alcohol free vanilla in their babies formal to help them drink?
I’m 100% sure my baby refuses her bottles as she doesn’t like the taste of it!

Just anxious to try it, don’t want her to get used to it and then refuse bottles again after two weeks of using (correct me if I’m wrong but I’ve read you use it for 2 weeks max)

TIA 🙂

Do men really enjoy fellatio?

Been together more than 10 years, but it's been a while since he even seemed remotely interested in me getting on my knees, or vice versa so to speak. I think it was once last year. Must be something I am doing wrong 🤔. Generally everything else in that department is great and we have two young kids with no extra support, so it's quite surprising we can't keep our hands off each other but may need to try new things. It's basically 2 positions each time with some foreplay.

Sex post C section

Hi ladies I’m 4 weeks 5 days postpartum and I had a C section. I’m not bleeding properly anymore just some brownish discharge stuff that starts on and off. I’d like to do the deed with my partner; is it okay to do so or shall I wait the full 6 weeks. I feel up for it but also worried because the advice is 6-8 weeks.

Can someone pls help i keep making this post and nobody is responding

My boyfriend booked a trip for us to go to mexico for a week as my push present. I have severe anxiety leaving my 7 month old with my mom. I know she will be in good hands but she’s exclusively breast fed for the most part but accepts bottles just fine. i have all my pumping parts packed and will pump when baby normally eats but i don’t want baby to forget me or have latch issues when i return!! any mommas ever experience this?
