Lonely
Anyone else experiencing feelings of loneliness throughout the day? I feel like I am struggling with how different my life is now, I'm used to working full time and being around people all day and now it's just me and little one majority of the day. I have no friends close to me that are in the same position, they are all working. I find that I'm counting down the hours till my partner comes home but things also feel so different between us. I keep waiting for things to feel easier and 'more normal' but it's been 9 weeks now and I feel like I'm still having trouble adjusting or accepting that this is how things are now. Please tell me that things get better? Anyone else in the same boat?

I have spoken to my health visitor about groups and I am going to one next Monday and I have booked baby massage classes for the next 4 Tuesday so hopefully that will be good. I get out everyday, whether it's a walk or even a wonder around town, it does help a little 😊
It is a big adjustment going from having people around during the work day to no one. Hope you have fun at the groups.. i love my baby massage one as its so chilled!
I definitely feel like this. I find going to classes helps and making sure we get out at least once a day, it's not 100% working but I definitely feel better on the days I've met and chatted to other people

Have you tried going out to groups? It's quite nice talking to other mums who feel the same and will hopefully make you feel less lonely. It is such a big adjustment from working. I get out everyday and it makes a big difference otherwise it just feels like I'm on repeat lol 😆 x
