Anyone else just having a terrible time? Considering starting anti depressants. I cannot control these moods at all. It's awful.

Do any other mums just feel completely lost since becoming a mum? I want to be with my baby all the time, especially after our long infertility battle, but society makes me feel like I'm not doing enough just by being a mum, and even then I'm not good enough at being a mum because you need to have multiple sensory a...

Broke up Christmas day, been no contact since. As the time is going on the silence is getting louder and I am thinking more about everything. We got our first house together, first time abroad for him together, had a child together, lived together for nearly 2 years, celebrated birthdays together and made plans for ...

I’m a single mum with no friends or family support I’m so alone sometimes scared I’m dealing with a lot of trauma and I’m also grieving. I have no one to talk too just want to meet some nice people for me and my 2 year old son to connect with. Could really do with a hug and told be told everything will be okay.

Does anyone in here who’s only having one child, get the guilt that your baby is going to grow up lonely as an only child im not ready to have more kids not planning on having anymore but I do feel guilt I’m sure they will make friends in school but I grew up with siblings so I don’t know what it’s like as an only c...

I really need so much support rn I’m struggling and feeling so dang depressed😭!! Having no friends or really even family to talk to without being judged, it just really sucks man and watching my only 2 year son being sad and go thru this heartbreak too just makes me feel so worthless🥹! But can’t talk to anyone…

I don’t know why but all I do at the moment is sob, I’m 22 weeks tomorrow and I’m so exhausted all the time, I cry at absolutely everything and all I want is my mum. I really don’t feel supported at all, even with my midwife team or partner, I just consistently cry for my mum (she’s not with us anymore) and it sucks...

Ugh Every time I plan to do something I get bad vibes and a stomach ache so if my husband doesn’t want to go with me or I can’t find someone to go with I just stay home. I usually love a solo shopping trip and a hot chocolate while I wonder. All of a sudden being away from home alone is scary even if it’s 5-20 min ...

What do you when you sick, having a hard time with my baby cuz I feel so bad. I can’t play like I used to

1 to two kids has been much easier as in it’s been easier managing and meeting a babies needs but everything else has just taken a back seat. There’s just so much that needs to be done and someone always needs something and there is always a kid with me now. I’m so exhausted.

Does anyone else find motherhood so lonely? I’ve got an amazing partner and family but I feel like I’m missing something in my life. Can anyone relate or am I just crazy lol

Does anyone else feel like there completely alone despite having loads of peoples help and support?

I feel like I’m the only one in my kind of shoes. Full time working mom, only have weekends off. The boyfriend works 6 days a week. So my Saturday is spent just me and my kids. All my “friends” don’t have kids and just party on the weekend. But they also don’t have “real” jobs. And most moms on this app stay at home...

Anyone else pregnant yet a single mother? Definately an emotional journey for me

Anyone other moms just home alone all the time. I'm just here alone for Christmas with my 2 month old daughter. My husband is always working.😏😮‍💨

Isn’t being single at Christmas just very lonely? So greatful for my little boy, he makes the day so magical! But can’t help feel a bit sad at the same time, especially seeing everyone else in their happy families on social media. No idea what the point in this post is but just had to share somewhere!😂

I have a two year old, dream job/husband/family and house and I’ve never felt more alone in life. On paper my life is amazing but in real life, I feel utterly alone. My husband is a great dad but I’m not priority in his life anymore since our son was born. My MIL is slowing taking over my life but she’s the only ...

Spending Christmas alone with my kids. I bought stuff to make a huge meal and literally no one is coming. I don’t even feel like cooking anymore. I’m lonely as heck and just for once I want someone to think about me….. I can’t even remember the last time I got a present.

My son’s father and I are no longer together but still living in the same house until I find somewhere to go. He didn’t say anything to me and took my son to visit his family for Christmas. I’m alone and my heart hurts that I’m not having fun with my kid and the fact that I made such an enormous mistake being with s...

Hi I’m 33, single, no kids… for the longest time I thought I always wanted to have marriage and kids but the more I see my friends and cousins with their little ones it seems cute but very very exhausting and I know having a child will change your life forever, I have been thinking about what day to day life would l...
