Me time.
Feel awful saying this but I sometimes wonder if I’m too selfish to have a child. I really miss having my time and just being able to do things alone. I love spending time with my LO but I do still miss parts of my life before them.
Does anyone else feel like this ?

I can’t lie I look forward to bedtime😂 I give my all to the kids all day so After 7pm is me timee. It doesn’t make you selfish at all, you deserve to have some time alone
Absolutely! I'm constantly going back and forth between loving being a mum and desperately wanting time to myself. I, too, live for the evenings when she is in bed 😅 I usually get an afternoon a week when my mum has my daughter, and I am trying to be really purposeful and mindful during her naps and the evenings so I can do something that is all for myself. Sometimes I need those nights of endless scrolling as well though!

It is completely natural! Your life literally changes overnight when you have a baby and I don't think there's any bigger transition! I loveeeee my daughters more than life itself but I get days where I feel almost claustrophobic with the amount I'm being touched and called 😂. Do you have anyone that can watch LO for a day for you to spend by yourself every so often? X
