Friends!!!
Did you lose connections, friendships, distanced yourself?
Does this happen to postpartum moms? I had to disconnect myself to certain people because I realize they wasn't REAL connections, they wasn't real supportive friends.
Or am I overthinking? ....

@Angela now I have guilt for doing it. I'm wondering why I actually feed bad to cut them off but I know deep down that it's worth doing for long term.
Well you most have cared for those people, given them a piece of you so it feels like you gave yourself away or it was all for nothing. I feel guilty at times too because I had to cut off my mom because she was never good for me growing up and she continues to prove she’s not good for my kids. I love my mom but it’s a good thing to do for my kids.
Just talk to those who reach out and care about you! It’s a two way relationship in all friendships and relationships!

You’re not. When I was pregnant with my first, I wish I listened to that voice telling me to cut certain people off, and after my second was born, I’ve decided I’m done letting people walk all over me because to me, all that matters is setting a good life and relationships for my sons. So if certain people can’t behave around my children like the adults they are then I don’t need to have them in my life or my kids life. That intuition is real, listen to it when you’re proven right about someone.
