Coming from someone that always sticks to my firm boundaries especially at work, Was just curious about this…

Anyone else starting to feel lonely! I don’t have any mum friends and only moved to the area 2 weeks before falling pregnant. The friends I had made haven’t bothered with my little boy since he’s been born and don’t really have a good family relationship.I tried going to the marks and Spencer’s morning yesterday and...

Posting to see if I can find a friendship that we can bond over commonality. I have been having a lot of struggles in my marriage since having my daughter. Has anyone else felt that their partner is does not help and expects everything to be put on you - would love to have someone to vent WITH (not just to) who is i...

It’s exhausting to be the convo starter 🫠

Motherhood can be so lonely and scary n it's easy to feel like u have no one who can help u or understand what ur going through and stuff. But I realised the other day that even tho all of the above can be true onr thing I will never experience is going through all of my babies stages alone. The 1 thing we will alwa...

How are you all coping? I’m really struggling with the adjustment. The commute is awful. Feel so guilty for being away for 10+ hours a day

It’s not coming from a place of integrity or education. All the liberals coming out of a rosy 4 year comatose to suddenly pose as antifascists is insane. You’ve proven to stand with one of Americas two tyrannical parties instead of just opposing tyranny.. why??

Am I the only one with no support network whatsoever? I keep hearing stories of other women struggling and they still have friends, family, or some kind of support network. I have no one, absolutely no one. It's anyone else in the same boat or am I the only one? How does one cope?

Does anyone else on here have literally 0 support whatsoever, as in no family, no friends, no one at all to help, or is it just me? Everytime I see fellow mums struggling, they always always still have a social support network of some kind.

From childhood to adulthood it’s always been an underlying fear

Before kids it was a lot of the same thing over and over day in and out but with kids it’s like 10 day in one. I feel like a robot and a really bad one because I struggle to keep up with everything. I tried to make a joke with my husband last night in Costco and he was just serious. We were talking and it fit in per...

Completely exhausted. Have always thought that I would have 2 children, and I still would like to. Well I like the thought of it. But u actually don't think incould survive it. Having my year old son, who still doesn't sleep through the night, and the thought of adding another baby. But it makes me sad this might no...

There are moments of pure joy, and moments of absolute chaos. I’m trying to be gentle, patient and responsive but I was the mum trying to stuff my child into the pushchair today 😭. I should have been a bit more patient but forget everything in the moment sometimes.

Does anyone have harder days now they are getting close to two I had a really easy baby so finding some days really hard like I’ve lost them My husband has the best fun but I do feel like the walking punchbag sometimes I’m stay at home mum with no support so things do just get on top of me sometimes please tel...

Anyone just feeling a bit lonely with your newborn each day? My baby is really hard to settle and I don't get much sleep so I'm tired which makes it harder to settle him. I just spend my days rocking him and crying to myself! Just feel a bit sad and everything feels hard. Does anyone else feel this way? Wish I had s...

I never thought being a mum would be this lonely.. I thought I’d have more friends to do stuff with, every one with kids the same age ( just turned 4 year old and my august 2022 baby) as mine are back at work full time. I am also back at work full time but work nights so have a lot of time free in the day!

So, I feel as though I’m always in this stuck feeling of depression. And it just won’t go away. I have moments of feeling Iike I have everything together but I don’t and at home I feel so lonely even though my boyfriend is right here and then I also have moments where I’m like am I being good enough as a mother! Or ...

Those of you with grumpy babies who cry ALOT do you ever leave the house? In recent weeks my happy baby has turned into such a grumpy boy and I just feel like I can never go out because I can’t bare to hear him cry in the car, and it’s mortifying him crying in public. I miss leaving the house, I feel so isolated and...

Dose anyone ever just feel extremely alone. I know I have my baby and I am never really alone but being in this apartment all day alone and then going to bed alone every day and night I’m just really tired of feeling this way.
