Struggling

Is anyone else feeling in a low mood. I can't really narrow down what it is. Little one is currently going through unusual sleeping due to regression. However I just generally alone/trapped. I keep reading or seeing posts about if you like your struggling to reach out to family and friends for support. I dont have anyone and tbh it's just makes it worse for me to see people leave the little one with "grandparents" or "dad" to go gym or solo shopping or to get nails done because I dont have that, I can barely have time to have a proper shower alone. I can't even mention to close family how I feel as it will just be joke to them or I will be told it's fine things get better etc.

You're not alone, I am struggling too. This sleep regression plus the change in seasons is impacting me. I have a couple of mum friends but they've been busy for like a month or two and I haven't seen them. My family are great but I still feel lonely. I find it hard to make friends at mum & baby groups because I struggle to make small talk, or they are too busy/loud environments and I end up just watching the bigger babies play on the floor. I definitely have that trapped feeling.

You aren’t alone. I had a real dip in mood just before my first period came in post partum. I struggled to feel positive about anything at all and didn’t really speak out at the time. Please don’t feel you’re the only one stuck in a rut & continue to use this app to chat xxx
