Why bother?

Honestly, I’m starting to wonder why I bother posting things on groups on here asking for advice and support about certain things in groups it’s for when no one answers me. It leaves me feeling deflated, defeated and alone. What is the point.

To add this is not specifically aimed at this group but I know there are a lot of people in this group and wonder if other people feel the same ?

There’s a facebook group that might be worth joining I found its easier to use and more likely to get a response x

Some things ppl ask, especially anonymously, feel a bit beyond my sphere of experience so I don’t feel like I can meaningfully contribute. I saw a post about coparenting the other day that had no replies and felt bad for the person posting but didn’t really have any advice so perhaps others felt similarly

Some people just aren't sure how to respond to certain topics that's all. My door is always open if you would like to chat though so message me whenever you want to 😊

Yes I have felt that way so many times and totally understand you

I have come to notice that if people are offline in the first hour you posted it gets pushed down by newer posts. So may be worth observing the time you post 🥰🥰

For instance I posted in a group for babies with cows milk protein allergy’s because I feel like I’m honestly drowning and it has thousands of members and nothing. I just feel completely at my wits end with no one to turn to for help.

Does it get Easier?

I’m a FTM. I love my son and I really do love being a mom. I lost my job last November and ever since my family ended up going through homelessness and had to figure things out. We are now living in a new apartment and everything is ok, but emotionally I’m just not feeling it. I’m still a sahm and looking for work but we can’t afford child care on top of that. I don’t really know what to do to help my husband support our small family. I feel so lost and overwhelmed. I don’t really have people that I can talk to let alone relate to as I’m only 22 and most of my family thinks I threw my life away. I just need to know if anyone has any recommendations or knows anything I can do. I wanna make things better but honestly how?

Drama

How can a so called “man” threaten to leave his pregnant girlfriend due to pregnancy complications and having to be on bed rest and pelvic rest? Threaten to go out and cheat if I don’t suck or give something up. We already have 2 other kids together I just don’t know how to feel about this situation

Moving house

We are due to move house (over 400 miles away) at the end of this month when I'll be 7 months pregnant. I'm fighting all these urges to buy stuff for baby and sort the house out and it's really difficult because we don't have a date yet. Has anyone else moved house while pregnant?

Copper coil vs mirena

I had a GP appointment this morning and discussed contraception. I used yo be on the pill before the kids and are now only using condoms. I told him I've been thinking of the copper coil as I don'twant to have a hormonal contraceptive. He told me not to choose that one and to choose the mirena coil instead so I wouldn't have any periods.

I don't know why, but having a man telling me to go for a hormonal option pissed me off 🤣

I would love to hear pro and cons for both and which one you've preferred?
