I hate being a mum.

I never wanted kids before but here I am now with an almost 6 month old and I’m so depressed every single day. I feel down and hate my life. Everyone keeps saying it gets better but it’s actually getting worse for me. Don’t know what to do. I feel trapped in this life that I hate. Partner goes to work everyday so it’s just me and my baby. I’m also bored out of my mind and just feel so depressed.

New friends??

Heyyy! I’m a 22 year old first time momma to an almost 2 month old baby girl
I just really need more mom friends that can relate or to even just be friends and send memes to each other ❤️ especially in the Olympia/Lacey/Tumwater area (I live in Oly!)

I'm alone

Hi girls, I don't know how to stop feeling sad. I'm so scared that my baby is picking up my sadness and something bad will happen to him 😔. I feel so alone, and honestly, I'm even tired of this pregnancy. I'm not with the baby's father because, let's just say, he never wanted to be involved, and soon my sister is moving to Europe. I'll be completely alone, and it's awful. I don't want to feel this abandoned anymore.
