I love my kids so much but any other moms out there without support from family maybe some friends but you don’t have anyone to help look after your kids so you can enjoy yourself. Been feeling down some because my friends get to go out

Enjoy life because they are lucky to have supportive family in their life. They tell me so much about all their trips and events they get to go to without their babies or big kids . Don’t get me wrong I do go out with my kids we go skating, and other cool kid friendly places but having them with me all the time for 2 to 4 years with out any help can make me feel left out I maybe need to change my circle of friends maybe idk just feel down hard to explain. It’s just I just work, go home and be mommy all over again everyday and every weekend. Most days I cry cause I see everyone’s family being there and my family just so different everything is so different. Just everyone expects a lot from me but when i need them no one is there

Are you able to afford my $60 bucks every 2weeks so you can have three hours to yourself or maybe $80 for a night out with friends at least once a month. Time to yourself is important so even if you can save $25 a week just so you can have a babysitter for just one night a month will probably be worth it.

@Maridel thank you I’m remembering that everyday

You don’t have anyone? No family members would help?!

@Hashana nope only ppl I talk to in my family now is my mom and sister my sister is too young to babysit and getting ready for college mom just got her kidney transplant. Family that I used to know hide secrets, doesn’t like dark children and child molestors or okay with ppl who like young kids so me knowing that I don’t talk to them after I had my kids cause I don’t want them going through what I had to go through

@Dreame wowww that really sucks I feel for you. You’re a strong, smart woman. I agree with @Veronique about saving for a childminder in that case maybe once a month. You could plan ahead for it. Or once every two months if money is tight. I totally understand how you must feel though. 🫂 I complain about me not having enough time to myself but you literally get none! 😣🫂

I feel this exact same way today. I broke down this morning because I moved to FL from RI and I have no help from anyone. I didn’t have much more up north but I did have a few friends willing to watch them here and there. Down here? No one. It’s hard. I would love a date night with my man alone
