I agree. My husband helps once he gets home from work but I do miss being a pampered princess when I'm sick lol.

Saaaame. It’s so hard taking care of them when you feel like death.

Finding the energy to do stuff with the kids when I feel like I should have all the energy. Now we did just find out I’m pregnant so that’s taking a massive toll on my energy levels.

Honestly everything else around the house besides taking care of my babies. It’s not that I can’t do it, just gets to be so much sometimes. I’d rather give my full attention to my babies instead of constantly mentally making a list of the stuff the needs to be cleaned around the house, the shopping trip I seem to always have to make, scheduling appointments and not somehow overlapping them (terrible habit of that), taking care of the pets, making the food. I’d much rather just hang out with my babies. My fiancé works all the time so sometimes it’s just TOO MUCH

Definitely getting sick. Still recovering from bronchitis, both me and my son. I'd fall asleep watching him play by himself and I don't fall asleep easily. Maybe not getting breaks too

My biggest struggle so far is feeling like I’m not doing enough. We are financially struggling because I’m home but I know it will just be worse if he goes to daycare. It’s a lose lose

I’d say managing everything with her and with the house - keeping up with all the housework like I used to with a toddler around but definitely agree with feeling sick with a child because it is the ultimate worst.

Lost friends since being a mum

Good morning! Can anyone relate to this!

My two friends and me have always been close since our early teens. I’m the first to have a baby.

One friend has big house, career and boyfriend

Other out of a long term relationship and being single having fun etc

Before baby we would all hang at my
Apartment, chat eat and just have
Fun.

Now I don’t even get a text to ask how my baby is, how I am. I really thought they would be awesome aunties. But honestly they don’t care.

They meet up a lot to do cool things, which I can’t be upset about as I can’t as I have my baby.

I don’t know I feel sad about it.

Am I over reacting?

Work + baby?

Hi everyone I’m a struggling mom needing to go back to work but trying to avoid sending my baby to daycare I’m desperately trying to find work I can do with my baby as I won’t have any one I trust to babysit. If anyone knows anything please reach out. I just want my baby to be safe but living in this economy with one income is just impossible. Please fellow moms im begging for anything!

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 🤣
