Fedup

I don’t know if anyone else feels like this, but lately I’m just feeling really fed up with the same day-to-day routine and, more than anything, the lack of a proper mum village. 😔

I absolutely love being a mum and I’m so grateful for my little ones, but I think sometimes people underestimate how lonely motherhood can actually feel. Every day can feel like Groundhog Day — wake up, breakfast, get everyone ready, activities, lunch, naps, snacks, dinner, bath, bedtime… then finally get a few minutes to yourself before doing it all over again the next day.

And it’s not necessarily that I want to be doing more. I just want some company and connection along the way. I want those friendships where you can message someone and say, “Fancy going for a coffee?” or “Shall we take the kids to the park?” without having to overthink it. Someone to have a laugh with, moan about the hard days with, celebrate the little wins with, and just feel like you’re not doing motherhood completely on your own.

I think I’m really missing that feeling of having a little village around me. ❤️

It’s hard seeing other people who seem to have their group of mum friends, regular meet-ups, playdates and support, while you’re just getting through the same routine day after day. And I know social media can make it look like everyone else has this amazing support network, but I’m sure there are lots of mums quietly feeling exactly the same.

I’d love to meet some genuine, down-to-earth mums who are also looking for friendship and a bit of companionship. Not necessarily anything complicated — coffee, walks, soft play, park trips, lunch, or even just a chat while the kids run around.

If anyone else is feeling a bit lonely, stuck in a rut or just missing having a mum village, please know you’re definitely not the only one. 🥹❤️

Would genuinely love to hear from anyone who feels the same. Maybe we can all find our little village together. 🤍
