I know. Seems that way. I'll been trying. My friends will manifest

I feel you it's very lonely

Hey, I really agree with this, like when I got pregnant I thought so many of my friends and even family would be supportive but they weren’t, and I was confused cos if anyone in my life was pregnant and had been I’d be there for them and so happy! after I had the baby, god damn I was surprised at how many bothered at all. I had someone I had known since high school and we’d talk all the time and she just switched up and distanced herself , I don’t get it. I’m all about transparency and I feel like with me and my friendships I love that honesty, for example being able to tell your friend hey I’m busy today and not in the mood to talk today girl like I’m really going through it, whereas other people nowadays would rather lie and say they’re busy or just come up with something false?

I dunno if that really made sense , I totally get that because I actually don’t have any real friends anymore BUT you defo will have a real friend, we can’t all go down the same path 😆 one of us has to thrive!!!

No, it totally made sense it's the same for me. All I have left is my husband, but sometimes it would be nice to have more friends than just him 😔

It genuinely sucks and takes to much nowadays to make friends and then todays society is sick asf you never know anyone’s intentions.Im at the point I’m just gonna give up trying it feels like a waste of my time now ..

that really sucks! Sorry about that, I am glad you have your husband Well anyone in this post can hit me up. I know we’re not local and in different continents but I’m happy to talk to you girlies, god knows I need some friends and good conversations🫶🏽

I know your points are so valid! Again you can hit me up anytime, it would be nice if we lived in the same country because I for sure would love to meet up!!!

For sure, thanks, I need friends to even if it's just to talk on here 😊

You telling the truth honestly I don’t even try anymore

I look forward to that ! 🫶🏽

I feel hopeless 😂

I say the same but then I keep forgetting to text back, don’t have much time to hang out and I like to be home. 😅 that might be why everyone is busy now days

It’s hard esp on peanut

Love my husband. Love my kids. But…

I’m 32 weeks pregnant with twins. I take care of my 4 yo, 2 yo, and 1 yo. I barely have energy to stand anymore. I cuddle and watch movies with my kids all day at this point. My husband is less pushy in this pregnancy in wanting to be touched or love up on me. But I feel more like a tool these days more than ever. He gets frustrated (not to a crazy degree) but I can tell he huffs because he’s probably sexually frustrated from me not wanting to be touched on. (my boobs are super sensitive atm) I love having the babies part, but the pregnancy also now has me feeling like a baby making machine. And a tool with big boobs made for touches and my husbands pleasure. Ofc I love my husband and kids, but with my hormones all wack, it really doesn’t feel the same when you’re not turned on. It’s so hard for me to get turned on. I’m uncomfortable all the time in my own body. Babies moving in there all the time. My children cuddle me all day but get rowdy at the end of the day, so I end up getting touched out and I can get irritable when my husband tries to touch me affectionately. He doesn’t have the tact necessary for me right now, when I wish he wanted to go in for a normal comforting hug I’m let down more often than not, there is almost always a boob groping involved as well. I tried to just let him touch me last night so he could get it out of his system, but he could tell I felt tense. Wish my boobs weren’t such an uncomfortable place for me to be touched. Idk why I’m making this post. Probably just to vent. Wish men were equally as emotionally intelligent as women. Wish I didn’t feel like I still owe him something because he’s picking up a lot of the house load and yet I still need to ask him to do more before these twins arrive. He’s tired every day when he comes home, so he takes a shower sometimes works out, and helps get the kids to bed. So it’s a struggle getting him to help any further than that. Weekends are my only time to get to him. But it’s a struggle to find time on weekends too. I know if he wanted to he would. But there’s just no drive.

Go to dinner ideas

Looking for recipes you use in your family that are not the traditional lasagna, shepards pie, ect

If you DO NOT buy things second hand, it is mainly because:

Answer only if it applies to you.

What are we giving our soon-to-be 3yo for their birthdays?

We have the magnetiles, we have the kinetic sand and play doh, we have the play kitchen…

Literally, is there anything left in the world to buy this spoilt kid? 😅

Baby groups?

Hello there!!
I hope you enjoying the 5month babies 🫠 the cuteness outweighs everything over here.
We live in the area of Croydon & need to start going to baby groups ( I NEED it more than him though) but I am a little bit clueless. Any recommendations?
We are happy to travel a bit too.
Thanks ☺️
