Anyone else super alone?

I’m a single parent, pregnant for the 2nd time. Friends have distanced themselves, my family aren’t acknowledging the pregnancy and have said it’s ‘strange’ (because I’m not with the dad), the dad isn’t talking to me. So yep just me and my child.. and one more soon. Instead of chasing love and their approval I’m deciding to do the last part of my pregnancy and probably birth fully alone.. anyone else similar? I feel like it’s kinda sad but I don’t know what else I can do. Once baby is born I will get out there and make new friends and more of a village but for now I’m too tired

I’m sort off in the shoes as you. My side off the family dont talk to me because I’m 18 and pregnant. And the baby dad’s side now doesn’t talk to me apart from his auntie as I live with her and the baby dad still.

Hey girls I’m really sorry you’re going through this. Pregnancy is such a sacred thing and it’s sad you guys feel so alone. Honestly feel free to message me at anytime. I went through an alone rough patch during my first pregnancy. My parents didn’t talk or acknowledge my pregnancy for the first 3 months and it was VERY tough. I decided to do things for me and my baby. Try doing the same but either way im here to vent or share the experience ❤️❤️

I feel so annoying cause very conversation I’ve had on here so far is small talk with no emotion. All I get is haha and :) and it’s so awkward for me. I’m suffering keeping these conversations going LOL 😫

Intro

Hey everyone I’m McKenna my son was born in July. He is my first baby and I love being his mommy but I’m also kind of lonely. It was like once I had my baby people got excited for about 2 weeks then fell off the face of the planet. So I’m looking to connect with other moms who are in a similar boat to me. I would love to get to know some of you!

Chicken Kiev 🍗🐓

Homemade Chicken Kyiv with creamy mashed potatoes, because sometimes a little butter is exactly what the soul needs 🧈🤌🏼
Mommas, are we in our green juice, protein-packed, healthy goddess era… or are we surviving motherhood one buttery, comforting meal at a time? 😂

What’s on your menu lately?

Mirena (Birth control)

Is anyone else using Mirena has a birth control option after having a baby. Since I got it inserted I’ve been bleeding nonstop. I got it done in June 2026 and it’s now October and I’m still bleeding. There are days where it’s much lighter but then picks back up. Please let me know I’m Jo the only one.

Who wants to make mom friends!!

Looking for some mom friends! Don’t get me wrong I love my kids and love being with them but sometimes I need some girl time! I’m in the southeastern Idaho so I’m looking for some besties in that area to just connect and chill with. I am LDS but you don’t have to be LDS to be my friend.😊

Loneliness

Has anyone been feeling empty lately? There’s nothing going on, I wouldn’t say I’m depressed. I have what I want in life. But I still just feel so empty.
