Positive love stories after leaving you baby daddy

I’m currently in the process of breaking up with mine (he’s emotionally abusive and unavailable, lazy at parenting, loves selfishly, and only sees me for sex and the things I can do for him). I just wanna know that there’s hope. I know my husband is out there waiting for me and I’ll meet him someday. I just hear so many stories of women never finding someone or giving up

I'm now happily married and we have a baby on the way, our own home and my daughter sees him as her dad (her bio dad isn't involved in her life, his choice). My husband is an amazing man and great father.

My biggest piece of advice though is to decenter men. You're not even out of your current relationship yet and it sounds like you're already thinking of who's next. Make yourself be next, not another man or you'll probably end up in the same situation. Focus on yourself, achieve your goals, build the life you want for yourself, date yourself, fill your time with family, friends and hobbies. This way if/when someone else does come along you don't need them, they won't be filling a void in your life they'll just be adding to it and if they don't add to it positively, you can remove them and your life doesn't have to change.

Any moms doing side hustles? Need ways to get cash! 💸

Hey ladies! I’m looking for ways to bring in extra money right now and could really use some real-world advice.
What side hustles or quick ways to get cash are actually working for you? I’m looking for cash-only jobs or other ways to get extra cash.
What are you doing, and is it actually worth the time? Would love to hear your experiences! Thank you!

Identity crisis

I’m having a bit of an identity crisis, I’ve just got back to work and I’m loving some time to myself again but also feeling a bit meh/sad without my boy. I’m interested in getting stuck into work projects but also feeling very insecure and tired. I’m not sure if I wanna do my job anymore but also can’t mentally be a full time mum. Will this feeling pass and is it normal when starting back at work?

Any Other moms/sahms Looking for Genuine Mom Friends? 🥹

Hey moms! 💗 I’m new here & looking to connect with other moms! I’m a SAHM with a 4 & 6 year old & honestly, being a stay-at-home mom can get so isolating & lonely sometimes. 🥹 I don’t have much of a social life outside of being a mom & would love to make some genuine mom friends to talk to, laugh with, hang out with & build real friendships! If you’re in the same boat, let’s connect! 🫶🏽

Maintenance

My son is now 6 weeks old. His dad and I aren’t formally together anymore although he comes over and we have had sex before the 6 week point - please no judgement.

He hasn’t paid a single thing apart from a few bits for our hospital bag before I went into hospital. The first few weeks after birth she bought nappies, laundry detergent and a few essentials. The last 3 he hasn’t bought a thing but come round to see us. Baring in mind the whole pregnancy he told me he didn’t want our son.

Does he think I should be grateful by his presence?
