How do you learn to love being alone whilst having a child?
Being dead serious the loneliness I felt before becoming a mom feels nothing compared to now.
I come from a very small unhelpful family and I don't really have that many close friends..I've tried making more mom friends but it's not been easy.
There is a peace to being alone for sure..
But how do I learn to embrace it/ live with it?

I am sorry you feel this way. Are there any mums groups you could attend in your area? I don’t know where you live, but in many places you can find baby playgroups or parents activities you can do with your baby and it could be a nice way for you to get out and talk to people that are possibly facing the same situation.
Have you checked also any parents supporting network in your council website?
I don’t think we are made to be alone and parenthood is so challenging. Having a supporting network around is super important, I wouldn’t suggest you to learn how to embrace loneliness but instead not giving up since there are solutions out there❤️
I could have wrote this myself I’m in the exact same position as you 💔
