Ftm living alone with minimal help

Hi! I’m a ftm to an almost 3 weeks old baby girl, looking for people to talk to and connect with. Been feeling a bit overwhelmed the past couple days and been crying more I guess due to postpartum, but it’s so hard to control! I feel so alone and I think I just need to make more friends to talk with that are feeling the same way I am so I don’t feel completely isolated.

I don't feel the same way now but I've been there and done that.. I have two six and seven and a single mom it gets better I promise. Feel free to message me anytime.

Hey Cassandra, I am not in your area but I’m up for a long distance chat!

Ivan sympathize with you I’ve been there myself..I have a 9 and 12 yr old..I had bad postpartum with my two..it will get easier ,just hang in there.. you would like to talk just dm me..my name is Carrie

I’m up for a chat !! Looking at your situation, one thing I would do to make things easier a bit is keep some diapers and wipes in every room, that way you’re not having to get up and change your baby.

Wish I had my life back 😕

I love my baby don’t get me wrong but I really miss my old life. Now I didn’t get out much but now I wish I did. I wish I accomplished stuff and went travelling! I wish I went out with my friends more and damnit I miss my old body ☹️ this is just to vent but please can somebody tell me it gets better. I feel like my life has become so dull. I love my baby so much, truly, but I feel so bored and as if my life is on repeat. I see things like people going to festivals and stuff and I am so envious! 😞 even having a day to yourself and being able to solo travel. I kick myself like, why didn’t I do that!
How do you tackle this? People say, life doesn’t change, you just involve your kids in it but I don’t feel that and/or struggle comprehending it. Anyone else?

Going back part time at work

I went back to work when my little girl was 9 months old she’s currently 11 months I went back part time at first which was lovely and then after 6 weeks I went back full time which I regret as iv missed a lot of my little girls goals and it’s taken a massive toll on my mental health which I’m trying to fix so I’m a better person/mumma

What did you all do when you went back to work ?

What are the chances

Me and my husband had unprotected sex last night which it was my peak day but he pulled out about half way through him 💦 so many only half of it went in me. Are the chances of pregnancy still very high?

Sex before 6 weeks

I am 5 weeks PP and started having sex at 3.5 weeks pp. I am not bleeding or anything but I’m actually nervous as of late. I don’t want to mess up anything inside, like I know it’s possible but is it that likely?
