Recently single

I'm finding everything really hard at the moment. I've recently become single after 10 years with my husband. I have a 2 year old daughter and I'm 13 weeks pregnant with my 2nd. Finding everything so difficult at the moment to do the simplest tasks. I cry almost everyday and can't seem to get past it. How do you even get past this, all I ever wanted was a family to be together and I look at my daughter and feel sorry for her that she'll never have that family where her mum and dad are together. Does anyone else feel the same?

I have a two-year-old as well and feel the very same way. We've only been living in separate households for a few months now, I'm still grieving the loss of my previously envisioned future, my hopes and dreams for what could have been... but I feel present now in a way I could have never been before, as I am no longer waiting impatiently on someone else to help create the life I want.

I’m really sorry you’re going through this.my daughter is 5 months and he left 3 months ago but have been in and out of contact. It physically hurts it feels like someone is sitting on you and you can’t move or get up. The nights are awful you spend all day keeping urself busy with the kids and then the nighttime comes when they’re in bed and it hits like a ton of bricks. It’s definitely starting to get a bit easier and am looking forward to this journey of being a single mum. All I can say is just go right through it. Let it hurt then let it go. You got this xx

I'm so sorry for your loss! But I have a question was he a good supportive present husband? I'm asking because I felt the same way and then realized I was a single married mom anyway and I was just feeling overwhelmed and heartbroken. It gets better just be the best Mom you can ever be for your kids. But PLEASE don't neglect yourself don't forget you are special and strong. Self-care and learning to love yourself more will help! Xoxo you got this Mommy

I’m so sorry mommas. I went thru the same thing I have a 4 year old and a 4 month old. Their dad cheated on me after being together for 5 years and doesn’t even help with them at all.
