Feeling depressed & bored

@Annivie I think part of it is cuz I’m stressed out over my baby. There’s so many changes, my family, job & finance. I been putting off a lot of tasks cuz I can’t get myself to get started it. I feel like I have no energy
Completely valid! The energy will come I promise. You’re so early on! I understand as far as the life changes. It took me months to heal and even then I occasionally have hard days. I’ve “lost” friends due to me becoming pregnant as my life looks a little different, family isn’t close so there’s that, financially it feels like a lot with change but one thing at a time. I try not to compare my life journey with others as well and that took YEARS to understand. My husband and I live in a 1 bedroom and we get told 24/7 it’s not enough space, not ever enough. With work, I loved my job and it gave me a sense of accomplishment. I’m very grateful my husband makes enough to where I don’t have to worry and he lets me worry about my health vs work but there will always be that I want to work feeling ya know? Whats making you stressed about the baby? Health? How they grow? How to care for them etc?
I’m here with you! Last week was a huge low for me. I know you may not have any motivation rn or any desire, but meditating even 2 minutes and going up helps a lot. And sometimes I look down at my hands and admire the textures of it and just start saying what I’m grateful for in my hands to reground. I found the little things kept me happy. And rn I’ve temporarily deleted my Instagram to give me mental space
Sorry to hear that! It could be a part of the hormone journey just saying. I felt similar in my start and then changed my perspective. Go for walks in the early AM (7-8am). It’s really good for baby and your mental health. Ask yourself why you think your life is going nowhere - Soon you’ll be excited over the little things like what a baby needs, clothing, browsing all these things and learning about baby ❤️ It gets better, don’t beat yourself up over it.
