So I’m 8 months postpartum and I’ve truly been in the trenches and am trying to do better for me and my baby. I want to start feeling like myself, slowly but surely and I think a way for me to do is to make friends that are also moms. I’m not originally from here (I’m from NY) and I don’t have many friends here but the ones that I do are not moms so it’s been a little difficult to relate as of late (love them so so deeply though). I am looking to make genuine friends that we can simply just sit in each other presence and also maybe actually plan things sometimes 😭 we can be low effort AND high effort! 😭

Hey Vivian! I'm so sorry you've been in the trenches, that stinks! I don't think we live in the same area otherwise I'd be down to plan a moms outing. If you ever need to message another momma that's also trying to do her best, you can message me any time! 💛

Hey Vivian, I'm in nyc but here to talk if you want to message! Take your time coming back to yourself. Becoming a mother is a huge transformation that takes time. I'm 5 years in and still feel the waves but so grateful for this experience. You will never be able toncome to yhe old you, but you will come back so much stronger! ❤️
