Anybody struggle with solo at home days?

I seem to struggle with eight hours by myself, especially if the weather is miserable because I get bored. I don’t know what to do next. I have five hours left of today and I am just clueless

9 months pregnant and never felt so alone

My baby is literally due next week and I have never felt more alone than I have this entire pregnancy. It’s been really rough the whole way through with very few moments to actually enjoy it. My partner isn’t affectionate in the slightest and has backed right off to the point that most nights I’m up in pain and he j...

Any fellow single moms in Tampa Bay?

I’m looking to start some kind of group where we can help each other. Find friends. Find support. Share resources. Vent to each other. I’m low income, content creator disabled (can’t get a “normal” job until she starts VPK) and entirely alone. My grandma helps sometimes and those are usually days I have to work a lo...

Tired

I’m so tired of feeling tired and alone. It seems like every mom I know has their village already, and my son and I are outcasts. So called “friends” don’t even text me back. Family never check in. Husband just doesn’t understand no matter how hard I try to explain things to him. I guess I just have to accept that i...

Just want to vent.... maybe it's my hormones at the moment since I am pregnant

You guys I left my childhood state and moved to another state for my husband 8 years ago. It's been 8 years, and I can't stand it here. I hate it. I hate the environment, the weather, the way of life here is just not for me. I miss my state so much, and I keep telling myself I'll like it eventually but I just can't....

Contact with work

I'm not due to return to work until November. That is what I said before I left anyway. But I was wondering does anyone get updates from their work, hr or managers while you are away. I know from 2 of my closest co-workers that there have been alot of changes and we have a new manager, but it was mainly gossip/chat...

Life on hold? Surviving rather than living?

Does anyone else feel like this? My little man is nearly 20 months now, we're getting better at finding the time to take an hour or two out for self care but having a day out feels utterly exhausting, never mind taking him away/enjoying it. My sister lives in Franxe, has two kids, 3.5 and 5. They're here, there and ...

Lonely

Does anyone feel a bit lonely being at home all day with baby. I absolutely adore my baby but I haven’t got any “mum friends” and find some days I’m counting the hours until my partner gets in from work.

Mamas what you do to get yourselves out of ppd? To feel like you’re not losing yourself. I’m on medication for it. I don’t have a big village to help. I’m just lost.

Feeling like I don’t have an identity

My little girl is 11mo and I honestly just feel like I don’t have an identity. I don’t have time to do anything I enjoy outside of spending time with my daughter. I don’t know how to dress anymore, I don’t know what I even enjoy doing, I don’t feel like I want to connect with people either. We don’t have any spe...

Fear of being alone

This might sound daft but I've recently developed a fear of being left on my own for full days. My husband went away last week and I didn't cope well at all. He went out for the day today and I'm proud of how well I managed, but it was a conscious effort to divide the day into segments to get through. I never used ...

I’m finding this stage so so tough and I feel so guilty for feeling this way and lonely in my thoughts as it just doesn’t feel like I can talk to anybody about it. Is anybody else struggling with the ‘terrible twos’ ? Please share any helpful tips 🙏🏼
