Resigned my tenured career

Mixed in emotions. Worked up the corporate ladder and made a career for myself. Just resigned after 10 years in the field. In exchange more time at home and flexibility. Anyone felt the identity crisis?

I have not. I’ve only been back at work for a year though. I chose a career where I work 8-2:30 and have summers off for my kids. I don’t have to work financially but I like my job. I might feel different when we have more kids.

I am struggling with that too. I haven't resigned yet I'm still about 3 years away, but my family needs me to be doing something else

Finally discussed divorce with my husband

I had my baby on July 17th and today I finally brought up that I want a divorce. 3 yrs ago he asked for a divorce and I said no. And we have been struggling since. My baby just turned 1 month and I find myself having to deal with my husband neglect and dismissal while recovering for c section. On top of that , he s constantly talking to a female coworker on the phone via text messages. During his paternity leave, we don't talk most of the time. He just does his own thing and leave me alone and sad. I would love to connect with a mom who's going through divorce. Thanks for listening

How does your partner touch you?

My boyfriend refuses to touch me at all since our daughter was born 8months ago. We have sex ONCE a month when he can't sleep, but it's just in and out. No foreplay or touch. He also doesn't touch me in any other way. Nothing. Is this normal?

Sex

How do people manage sex after a baby?
I've managed once since baby was born and that was at eleven months
We are either too tired, too many other things to do or sometimes baby is on the bed (cosleeping) and have to keep an eye on him or he wakes up and has to be rocked back to sleep
So sex is at the bottom of the list
I feel like something is wrong with us when I hear how often other couple are doing it!

Any Moms Who Love Talking on the Phone? ❤️🙂

I’m a mom of three girls (16, 14, and 9) in Orlando, Fl. I’m 38 and turning 39 next month! 🎉

Any other moms here with teen girls who love to chat on the phone or send voice messages?Texting is great, but sometimes I just want a friend I can call or send voice messages to talk about life with!

Life is busy, but I’ve really been hoping to make some new friends who are in a similar stage of life. 🙂 Between teenagers, kids, marriage, work, and all the everyday chaos, it would be nice to have some mom friends to laugh and chat with along the way! 💕
