I saw a post on TikTok today about how no one came to meet this ladies baby when she was born, it made me so sad. My family has been a huge support for me, my partner and MIL, but I have no friends. Not a single person outside of my family or my partners friends has come to meet my baby (almost 6 months old). My best friend lives out of state, but she hasn’t even tried to FaceTime to meet my daughter. I know I’m lucky that she still has a lot of people who love her, I guess I just wish I a had a good friend close by. It made me very emotional and sad to think about.

Hey I’m pretty much in the same boat! My family loves our baby, we have great support. But I literally don’t have a single “best friend.” My close friends quit talking when they decided partying was cooler than being with a pregnant woman. My partners friends will visit but they’re not MY close friends. So I get it. Some days are so lonely, other days I have great faith that God will place the right people on my life at the right time. Also.. I don’t watch sad videos cause I’ll just cry and think about them all day🤣😭

I feel this but I don’t even have the family as support… it’s me, my husband and my daughter vs. the world literally… it sucks but I’m learning and promised myself, my husband and child that when I am a grandma I would NEVER treat my grandbabies or DIL/SIL with disrespect and be there for them even when times are tough, needs, wants. I would never want my daughter to feel the way I do where I have no one… all my friends act single and just want to go out and party when I have a family so I had to stop talking to 90 percent off them too.
Thank you both for replying, you both sound like very good moms. I think staying away from the sad videos in the middle of the night will probably help me a lot 😂 here’s to doing what’s best for our little families though.
I found out my husband was cheating during pregnancy and postpartum. Now I don’t ask for sex, I avoid conversations about our relationship. I don’t give a fuck anymore. He says I’ve been rude and don’t care if he’s dead or alive.
What else can I do to make his life a living hell?

i’m 19 with a 9 month old girl who actually just turned 9 months today! i haven’t been back to work yet because i’ve been struggling extremely with postpartum depression, anxiety, and rage . i want to work to help my boyfriend out with finances but we also don’t have much people to watch her. i don’t know what to do. it’s hard to find a job, it’s hard to make money. but he’s extremely sweet with everything and the nicest person i’ve ever met. ANY ideas?

I’m 27. I CANNOT DRIVE! I’m a SAHM. I want to find my mom best friend who gets it. I have my daughter 24 seven, literally. her father lives out of state. I do not trust her with my family AT ALLLLL!! and I really don’t got a lot of local friends because I have my baby 24 seven. most people can’t handle that. I really need someone who gets it, and won’t complain that I have my daughter. Play dates? Go out for coffee? Take the baby’s somewhere? Stay at the house and cook while the kids play and watch movies? IDC, but I need someone that will understand and respect that I always have her. I’ve lost friends because of it so I’d like to know ahead of time if it will be an issue I’m in the process of finalizing papers on buying my house so I haven’t been social cause I’ve really been focused on my future not dating or nothing like that just trying to get my long-term future stabilized.
