Right now with my pregnancy being high risk and the health issues I’ve been having I have to stay home , I can’t work and I can’t go out much. It’s been challenging I can’t even lie. I miss going out with friends and such. No one really visits me or wants to hang out with me outside. I
My pregnancy has been a lonely experience so far. My friends that live in the same state as me none of them have been pregnant themselves / have kids / like kids / gotten someone pregnant nothing so there no one to relate to right now.

Have you joined any due date month groups yet? I'm sorry to say that this likely won't change after baby arrives and you'll likely need to rebuild a new friend base. 🫂 This is a tough spot to be in 😔

Im here if you want to chat. My pregnancy was miserable I spent most of my pregnancy in bed vomiting. Not the months id like to repeat
33, mom of 4, and just trying to find the Meredith Grey to my Cristina Yang. 😂💕 I need my person! Someone I can talk to about everything and absolutely nothing. 😂

When I got pregnant with my partner, I’ve had this intuition I’m not in love with him. We now have a 7 month old, besides not being in love with him I also am unhappy with him (lots of fighting and just realizing who he is, I don’t want to be with him the rest of my life, etc.)
I plan on discussing with a family law attorney, but how do I break this to him?
Like hey so I don’t want to marry you. I want to do 50/50 or 70/30 (since I do more parenting)
I’m just scared how he will react and afraid to hurt him…. What’s a good way to explain this to him without him getting too upset and starting an argument?

Hi all! This is my first time ever posting so let me introduce myself! My name is Timberly & I became a mama in July 2025! Shortly after having my son, I was diagnosed with pp preeclampsia which has left me in a DEEP health anxiety spiral for many many months. I’m scared of doctors, getting my bp taken, getting sick & this has also left me with feeling very alone most days! I’m not sure why I’m posting this I guess just looking for someone who can relate? I don’t want to waste my breath anymore on the anxiety & worrying when I could be spending more time with my son!! I have many months of feeling great & no worries & then boom… it’s back lol anyways! I have a sweet baby boy who is 15 months old & the funniest little boy I know so something very amazing came out of all of this. I had a friend come hangout with me once a week but it’s been busy for everyone & it being the holidays it makes it a little more difficult🫠

Can anyone recommend some good exercises to do? The overhang I don’t mind but my belly still looks really big and bloated all the time, is it from the csection or excess weight, idk.
Nothing fits, even my wedding ring won’t fit my finger 😳
Exclusively breastfeeding, so I am always eating 😅

First time mom due 3/27.
I am so sad and disappointed that I can't be a stay at home mom. That is something I want so bad, at least the first 2-4 years. Unfortunately, my income is needed to pay our bills.
I hate how the U.S. treats and views maternity leave. I don't think I would feel this strongly if I had at least a year off. I'm extremely lucky to get 12 weeks paid as is. :/
Second time working mamas, how did you deal with this?

Looking for mum friends/ bestie who would want to meet up and go on play dates and have shopping days, just a general chat on the phone. I have a 3 year old little girl and 2 year old boy.
