My whole world is completely shattered

4 weeks left till I give birth maybe less than last time I got checked I was 1 cm dilated but as I wait for the days to go by , I had end my marriage and it completely broke me down. My body is rejecting everything except baby boy and I thank god for that. If I’m up I’m throwing up or crying I don’t know what else to do besides sleep myself into a migraine 😭 it’s currently 3 am and I have a migraine I’m nauseous and tired but can’t sleep and can’t stop the tears. This is my first and only pregnancy I will have I’m completely traumatized.

Any advice or words to help me get through this break up while in the weeks of my pregnancy?

I found out my partner was cheating at 37 weeks pregnant. I was induced at 38 weeks and the babies father left the day after my son was born. So i understand some of what you are going through. It isn't just the relationship you are grieving but the entire life you had imagined. You have every right to feel sad and hurt. But please know that it gets better. My son is now almost 3 months old, and he is the best thing that ever happened to me. He makes every tough day a little better. And without the father involved he is all mine.

It isn't easy, and I did get postnatal depression, anxiety and perinatal OCD. But be open to getting the help that you need when you are feeling low. And i promise it will get better.

Too emotional

I’ve been crying since about 3 this morning it’s now 5:50 because my little girl won’t go to sleep. She woke up and just won’t settle and it’s really getting to me. I’m getting so overwhelmed with her fussing and crying and the fact she won’t settle. She’s 10 months today and I’m honestly loosing the plot, I just feel like I’m failing and I’m getting so stressed and exhausted.

It’s almost time

Ive been counting down the days to stop breast feeding my daughter. Her dad and I agreed at 18 months. Shes 17 months now. I’m excited but Im also not sure if I’m mentally ready to stop. Idk. I’m feeling mixed emotions about this journey. I need pointers bc putting her on the boob is literally the only way I put her to bed. Like let me have one night so I can sleep on my stomach pls lol

Can we use dummies overnight to settle fussy baby?

Our baby is 4 weeks old and just won’t settle for sleep. We have tried everything in the books and we’re pretty frayed and desperate. What is the current thinking on using dummies? Can we use it for the overnights and not interfere with his feeding? We are exclusively breast feeding otherwise and he is feeding well. The only thing I’ve seen about dummies was a pamphlet about how to stop using them which implied we shouldn’t start…

Toddler help!!

I seriously have no idea what to do. My son turned two in June and he’s been kind of acting up and stuff but today he is a completely different baby. I am so confused. I don’t understand what’s happening at all. I mean he has his moments usually, you know, toddler tantrums and such but today he is screaming at the top of his lungs for hours, kicking, and screaming, while hitting me ripping my hair out. He’s taking down the baby gate. He’s slamming his head into the doors and stuff. Anything I try to give him to eat or something even if he asks for it he’s throwing it. I thought that maybe he was getting his back teeth, but I just need to know if teething would cause him to act like this. He’s seriously a completely different toddler and I’m not sure what to do. I need to know if this is normal I guess.

Stitches

I had my baby girl a week ago and had to have 2 perineal stitches. Has anyone else had this and what is it like for you ?

Mine have dull ache, which now my pubic bone around it hurts. And if I’m in a specific position or when I pat wipe after going to the toilet it hurts.

Anyone else ?
