I feel the same way! Literally have nobody.. cut pretty much everyone off.

I don’t either nobody helps with my daughter .. not even one day has anyone helped and my bf gets mad when I say I don’t want her around his family or mine cuz they haven’t been there for her at all but oh well

I feel you. My daughter has a village but I’m alone .

@Samantha I absolutely feel you when you say that like my daughter has like a village of support but personally everybody that I was around before I got pregnant don't have kids or their kids are older and I'm the only one with like this little fresh baby just about and it's lonely

@Courtney yesss same ! My friends that have kids are in relationships and my situation is different so people aren’t able to relate. I just wish people had more empathy. I can say the good thing that has come out of this besides my daughter is the fact that I had more strength in me than I ever imagined. I am grateful for things but I do wish I had a shoulder to lean on.

Well I'm here I'm in Long Beach California and going through some pretty s***** waves of postpartum but I'm here for the most part.

But that's one of the reasons why I'm on this app is beautiful as the journey of motherhood has been it's just as lonely and as emotional.

Yep we just cut all contact with his mom so we lost what was our support system all my family is in Texas

It might not apply to your situation but in my case I felt alone for the longest, tired exhausted deprived of everything. One day I had a mental breakdown because I couldn’t take it anymore, I spoke to my husband about it and you know what he told me “when was the last time you called anyone for help?” And I was shocked. Literally I realized that I’m the one who went into this motherhood bubble and pushed everyone away from me because I’m too pride to ask for help. Apparently people just go about their lives and think that I’ve got this. Anyway maybe look around, you certainly have people who are willing to help you just have to ask.

Yep most of us feel the same.

My baby had a village but I’m all alone

Baby, as hard as it may seem & as harsh as it may sound, you are the support system! Keep your head up & your chest out! Everything will get better as long as you continue to push forward. But also utilize the mommy apps to the best of your abilities & search for mommy groups near you as well as other resources. These are the things that worked for me! I hope this helps❤️
