I am not planning on killing myself. I donāt even really think l want to die. Like the thought of leaving my kids sounds unbearable and I would never do that. I just find myself thinking that phrase a lot. And yes Iām in therapy and on medication. Just curious if anyone has dealt with this?
How are you mamas doing postpartum? I hope well! As for me, the body aches are getting to me really bad. Also, sleep deprivation is taking me down a lot as I barely get enough sleep as is with a newborn and 17 month old. My blood pressure also dropped really low today and that was scary... I missed my breakfast whic...

I recently gave birth and it has been the most amazing but challenging time in my life. I feel that I have changed in so many ways and now see my relationships with others in a different light.

Although I provided clear instructions on what I wanted (something personal from our son) my partner still didnāt deliver. Itās like this for every big event (birthday, Valentineās, Christmas etc) and Iāve made it so clear that these events are important to me. Do men like this ever change? Is it stupid of me to e...

Let me say, to each their own! I am due with my son soon and would genuinely like to know how others feels on the topic š„°š¤
Iāve really been feeling such extreme guilt anytime I am away from my baby. He is 7 months old and I was thinking this feeling would pass. I push myself to get out of the house and attend friends bdays / celebrations but I find myself in extreme regret always even if I only have a few drinks. Not sure if itās the fr...

My daughter is 5 months old, and for the past few months, I've cried at least once a day. I feel like I let her down and looking at her sweet, innocent face breaks me. I know crying and shouting is her only way of communication, and i fumble through trial and error to get her to stop and make her happy. I feel like ...
