Missing old life

Does anyone miss their life before having a baby? What was your life before it all? For me, I felt like I was just starting to sort my life out and figure what I wanted. I enjoy the not rushing around, not having to wake up early for anything other then work & just being able to go anywhere & take as long as you want. I know having a baby shouldn’t stop you from doing the things you still like/enjoy but, I just can’t seen to get that good feeling back nor, enjoy what I used to like. Does anyone feel the same? And what was your relationship like before too?? Definitely has changed too. Mentally I am done at this point..

Show your support

I do sometimes. I miss working my overtime’s without feeling like I’m completely drained, go out whenever and not have to worry about anything but me. Sleeping when I want and not when I possibly can lol. So far my relationship is still great but man the responsibility hits different sometimes

Yeah definitely. I guess it won’t be like this forever, eventually we will get our time back.

Agreed

I feel like physically I’m better; yes I’m more tired, but I’m also more active, which for me is good. Mentally I’m worse. Tiredness doesn’t help, but the constant worry and emotional strain can be overwhelming. I find it hard to relax now.

@Cheryl yes I understand definitely on the mental side. Especially, forgetting things and remembering. It sure if hard to relax, your mind is always thinking and on the move. Nonstop. 😊

@Lorraine the forgetfulness! Yes! I forget basic words, and things that people swear they have told me. My children stole my brain from me.

@Cheryl aww lool mum brain 😂

@AmberA🌈👶🏽❤🦋 ahh yeah definitely it does. When a baby comes involve, the relationship does changes. It’s just knowing, how to work through it and managing things

@AmberA🌈👶🏽❤🦋 did you plan this second pregnancy or?? And did you want another so soon?

I miss being lazy 😂 late nights, late mornings, slow peaceful days, eating in peace. I’ve always been quite a laid back & spontaneous person but having to plan more and follow someone else’s routine has been exhausting and that won’t let up any time soon. Especially as I want another baby at some point. All worth it of course but I would love a little weekend away on my own at some point just to dawdle around and do nothing

@Emma ahh yeah this. Definitely and yeah I have been thinking of wanting to book myself away for a night for myself. Definitely would be nice and not have to do anything. Plus as my birthday is coming up soon. 😊

I felt the same. You're a new person now and your life is better. Find your feet again :) x

@AmberA🌈👶🏽❤🦋 ahh I see. Well just hope it will go well. 😊
