is it *somewhat* normal to question whether you made the right decision of having a life and a baby with your s/o?

Is there an option for "not normal" that isn't "extremely concerning"? It's smth abnormal that ought to indicate concern and discussion, maybe with the S/O or with a therapist or both or whatever. It is not *necessarily* EXTREMELY CONCERNING hold your horses 😂

It's extremely normal.

It's normal

If it's "extremely" normal that is extremely depressing and in that case I am so glad to be abnormal 💀 I've questioned and regretted many things in life. My life with my husband has never been one of them 😭

I think its normal! But I also think how often and to what extent those thoughts come are important. Like I have thoughts about "i wonder if we moved too fast" and "how different would my life be if..." and "did i make the right choice" but all of those are about me and they're occasional, usually following an argument, and always end up with "girl you're crazy you know you made the right moves look at what you have!". I've never questioned if he's able to provide or if hed be a good father or if he thinks im "less than" for being a sahm (honestly it was his idea, and a good one however resistant i initially was), occasionally still question his emotional intelligence but, if you knew him you'd understand lol anyway I think for me the first few months were tons of hormones and intrusive thoughts and ppd that made me question things. Now its more like "why did I have to fall in love with this goofball of a man thats basically a second toddler" when I know full well why i did!

Love is often perceived as this constant, always and forever, storybook type thing. It's not. It takes work, you'll have doubts and questions sometimes and things will be tough. Those are the times you gotta remind yourself of the good and really WORK for it to make it last. That's the advice my parents gave me when I was a teen and they've been married 35+ years, my grandparents seconded it and they've been married over 65 years!

Very normal. You are highly stressed, sleep deprived, have no time for yourself anymore. Navigating life with a baby and not just with yourselves is a massive change. Anyone that says otherwise probably aren’t telling the truth!
