Theres a WhatsApp group for Cambridge walks which is run by some mummy’s. Very informal but a really lovely group.
Hiii
I’m 22 years old, 10 weeks pregnant with my first.
I’m only stressed for so many reasons. All I have is my boyfriend but I wish I had family and friends but I don’t.
I’m so freaking bored, I’ve been sick, avoiding food I usually love💔
Haven’t had my first appointment yet which is one of the main reasons why I’m so stressed.
Is there anyone who would like to be friends? Doesn’t matter where you’re from, I just don’t wanna be alone in this.
Let’s get to know each other, share pictures, progress, etc. I just want some girl friends 😭💕

My husband and I, have been arguing a lot since the birth of our daughter. I had an emergency c-section, recovery has been tough as well as getting a handle on breastfeeding. Newborn trenches is really but a marriage has been harder…
During arguments he has asked me not to raise my voice (but I have PP rage and PPD/PPA). He has also said I’m not the women he married or he sometimes wishes he wasn’t married.
During our last argument, I threatened divorce. However since then, I had a dream he was cheating (we haven’t had sex in several months ie before baby arrived as I had pelvic girdle pain and he said it was fine and haven’t since).
He is working away and I decided to check his iPad and computer. I did message him, if I could use his iPad after I found the messages and he said yes, as he hadn’t used it in a while.
However, I have found messages from him to ‘call girls’ (is that what we call them?) while I was pregnant and during postpartum (a few before I was pregnant too). He has also met with them according to the messages (shared postcodes, confirmed arrival).
In addition, he has been speaking to his female friends about his high sex drive with one sharing her gym progress pictures and making jokes about not sharing pictures of her abs while he’s in ‘heat’. She recently got married and I think it’s inappropriate.
I even caught him today, as I could see the messages on his iPad and his location was off but conveniently back on as he was heading to his hotel.
I came from a broken home and didn’t want this for my baby. Plus he begged me to have a child promising to help.
He is a good husband and father (he does chores and helps with baby (maybe not 100% of the time but 60/70%) but I’ve felt unseen and lonely.
After finding these messages I have contacted a divorce lawyer but I want to make him pay. It’s his birthday this week, he owns the house (so I’ll have to leave and head to my mothers) but I want to tell him in front of his parents that I’m leaving him. Should I embarrass him in front of his family on his birthday?
I also want to invite the girl ‘friend’ over with her husband and embarrass her too for sending inappropriate messages to a married man.
Should I…?
PS: I’m terrified for my future. I didn’t want a child without having support from a husband and I don’t think I can do this alone. I’m drowning as it is but I do love my baby.

I don’t wanna say I’m in a depressed state because I feel like that’s a serious issue, but I do feel very down.
Being a SAHM has made me so bored, I feel like I have no purpose other than just surviving each day with a preschooler and a toddler.
I don’t work, I can’t drive, I am not part of a community, don’t have friends.. and I don’t have families nearby that can take my kids so I can never have a break just for myself.
I just feel like everyone I know in my life has a purpose, has something to look forward to each day, but I don’t. I don’t have something that makes me look forward to the next day, or that keeps me excited.
I am trying to promote my small business but getting an audience is hard. So I’m very demotivated each day.

Just a mama over here hoping to make some new mom friends! 💕 Near or far, I’d love to meet some sweet, genuine moms to chat with, share laughs, maybe plan little playdates or outings, and just have some good girl-mom talks. 😂💗 I’m always excited to meet new people and hopefully make some friendships along the way! 😊✨
