ever since giving birth i just feel so lonely. idk what to do with myself during the days! i just feel so lazy or like bored. my friends don’t reach out too much but i get it cause we’re all at different places in our lives. being a new mom is weird and hard to get used to. i feel like i’m living everyday in a loop!...
Does anyone else feel bad seeing all these nursery posts but you just can’t accommodate that? Fell pregnant under surprise circumstances, still at my parents house, my partner will be coming to stay until he has to go back to work - but the over crowding is just panicking me and seeing everyone talk about their nu...
If you're like me, saying “no” to requests can be a challenge. It’s funny how easily I say “no” when protecting my child at the playground or when she wants to do something dangerous, yet struggle to do the same when it comes to protecting my own self-care time. I'm working on this—actively practicing saying “no”...
Does anyone feel like there alone and missing out what’s going on around them? It’s like, you like being in your own space and company but also, you kinda miss having fun and seeing people/friends & what not. Since having a baby (16 months later) life has become quite dull and boring not really entertaining. What ...
Anyone else feel really overwhelmed at the thought of leaving the house to do something with your little family? We went out the first few days just little walks into town etc but the lm had a few days at home and now the thought of going to the local river spot or to take my older lad out motocross’in leaves me fee...
I have split up with my partner after a long time together. We are currently living in same house until I get somewhere sorted for me and the kids. My problem is I don’t have anyone for support- got no friends or family and I’m so lonely all I do is cry! All I want to do is talk to him and give him a hug but he wo...
Is it just me or… I’m a first time mom and I’m currently on maternity leave. I’m feeling lonely and I’m the first of my friend group to have a baby and somehow they stopped reaching out eventually when I had the baby. They won’t even visit or ask me how I am. That’s probably why I’m looking for other mom friends who...
Hi everyone. I just wanted to reach out to mums on here and share my experience to see if anyone is feeling the same. I am 34, mum to a one year old and I feel very lonely right now. I’m the first of my close friends to have a baby and I don’t think any of them are going to in the future. I am part of a mum group ...
I hate living in the U.S. right now. I hate that I can’t go to the dentist because I literally can’t afford it. I also can’t work though because I would be paying for day care for my kids. And I have to live with my parents because I’m a single mom too. I don’t know if this is true but I feel like a better life woul...
Currently dealing with depression and PTSD and they are both awful. I’m very introverted, I’ve been through a lot of stuff and sometimes I feel like I’ll rather shut off from everyone and be alone. I know it’s not healthy but it’s the only way I know how to cope. I don’t have many friends and it’s hard for people to...
If this seems far fetched (oops?) but I feel like I’m having an identity crisis like I don’t know who I am. I am 4 months PP and everything has changed, I don’t want to go back to my career, considering a career change? I’m just questioning alot about myself, is this normal?
Anyone else shattered all the time? My little girl is constantly on the move, & I’m pretty sure she’s getting ready to drop her second nap! hubby just doesn’t understand why I’m so tired (he’s currently out for the second night & he’s been at work today🤦♀️)
Does anyone else feel like they’ve lost like their whole personality since getting pregnant? I spend most of my days trying not to cry and feel so over emotional about everything. I can’t even pick what clothes I like as I just feel so unlike me, I just want to cover up but then feel like I look awful because I have...
FTM with 1 week old baby and PP is hitting hard. I know I’m going through baby blues but also scared it could be PND. I used to love journalling and gaming but since baby is born I’ve not been interested in doing anything or I’m too tired. I also have this fear I’m missing out on life outside motherhood right now, i...
Hi! I was hoping there was someone I could talk to. My husband and I are having issues and I’m starting to feel distant and I was hoping there was someone who I could talk to and vent to about it. I don’t want to be judged or anything.
Anyone else feel lonely on maternity? I love my girl to death but I'm alone with her most of the time and she takes so much of mu attention that I don't have much time to do anything else. I'm a very sociable person so going from that to staying in all the time not talking to anyone and occasional strolls in the par...
Anyone else feel like this? I have been back at work part time for a good few months now and LO goes to nursery - was hard at first but it’s great now so fine with that. Husband has LO days at the weekend if I meet a friend etc for a few hours but I feel anxious to leave overnight or anything like that. Lots of ...
Really, just looking for some friends. I stay home with my kids ages 7, 6, 4 and 10 months old. Normally, I don't go out of my comfort zone and post things like this but I've just been feeling so lonely lately and I hate it. It's taking such a toll on my mental health. If anyone wants to chat, send me a message! 🫶🏻
18 wks pregnant & I feel like life is going nowhere. I used to feel happy whenever I think about my baby now I feel like even that won’t cheer me up. I want to go outside & have fun but this CA heat is killing me. Nothing seems interesting, I don’t want to read a book or scroll thru social media
Hey mamas , I’m feeling very down. I’m a young 23 year old SAHM mom with an almost 2 year old. Being a mom makes me so incredibly happy. Being with my baby makes me so happy, I love him and I would not trade it for the world. However, I literally don’t have any friends anymore and im struggling so much with the FOMO...
