Anyone else feeling alone?

I feel so alone throughout this postpartum period. My boyfriend (he doesn't even deserve that title anymore) refuses to talk to me. We don't live together, and we have a 2-month-old daughter, yet he purposely ignores me.

For months, I've been telling him how alone, sad, overwhelmed, and exhausted I feel, and it's like my words have fallen on deaf ears. All I've wanted is to talk to him—to feel like I have my partner by my side. We've been together for six years, and now he says he wants time to think about us.

Honey, I don't mean to sound rude or to hurt your feelings, but let him go. You deserve so much more than that, especially after giving him a child. I know more than anyone how you want to hold on, and you want your little family but if he can ignore the women that just gave birth to his child then he is not a good man and you deserve someone who's gonna give you the world and some.

I feel like that to sometimes but that is why I redownloaded this app to find other moms who understands or is going thru the same thing as me. You are not alone

You are in the throws of postpartum depression. I have been there and still there. Unfortunately the best way to heal is in a different environment. Anyone who can berate a young mother in the most vulnerable period of your life is not worth your time. It sucks but, your desire for a nuclear family is better spent on a real man. A man who supports you emotionally, physically, mentally and spiritually. Leave before he waste anymore of your time. You're half way there you have your own place. Its a blessing in disguise. Let him leave.you can make room for personal growth and a better man to come along. I pray you have peace. The longer you stay the harder it is to leave and you baby won't know the lost because there is no attachment.

Feeling sad - baby friends

I said how I was going to take my little one to a little park nearby at a certain time, as before there had been a nice range of ages playing there. My partner commented that he was sad our 1 year old didn't have any friends to play with. Now our 1 year old has 3 main different friends but can't see them all the time due to the other mum's going back to work and fitting it in. I know I'm not the best socially myself, but I've been really trying. I just don't know what to do. Even when I've spoken to or met people on here, they just stop talking/disappear. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I'm taking them to different baby classes but I feel like everyone knows each other and stays on their pairs or groups, and I feel like an outsider looking in, wishing that was me. Don't really know what I'm expecting from this, just feeling upset as I'm trying my best and just getting nowhere.

Urgently need sex advice! How do I get my husband off?

Okay so my husband rarely gets off during sex. It usually takes about an hour and half of sex before he finally does. I’ve asked him about it and he says I’m the best he’s ever had, and he loves me and our sex, but sometimes I just want him to be done faster. By time he’s done once, I’ve gotten off like 4-5 times. Tonight we have a date night planned and I know we’re going to be having sec after, and I really really just want to impress him. I’m looking for advice on anything sexy or fun/unique that will make things move along a little faster.

Am I in the wrong

Since having my girl I’ve struggled with not having much of a sex drive and struggling to get intimate I never get a break from baby I pretty much do everything on my own even tho I have a partner, I caught my partner w***ing in the shower and he’s turning it around on me as if it’s all my fault I’ve explained I don’t like him doing it as the thought of him getting off to other girls etc it make me feel like I’m not good enough now he’s mad at me .

Please tell me I’m not in the wrong before I go insane
