I’m having a hard week this week. Just feeling really lonely even though I’ve met up with friends and baby and I have been to a sensory class today.

Called an assistance line with 3 areas stressing me out and keeping me up at night to vent/talk about solutions I already put in place.

Hey everyone, im just wondering if there are other stay at home mums in this group? How do you cope with feelings of isolation?

Does anyone else ever feel like their SO hates them? Like we both have our reasons for not liking each other sometimes and we are extremely rocky but some days I just feel like he hates me. I don’t think I’m looking for advice just curious if anyone else ever feels this way.
I’m feeling so alone in my pregnancy.. I don’t talk to my family much especially about anything I’m feeling because it’s always due to relationship struggles and I don’t want or need any judgement from anyone.
