I’m a first time mum to a 4 month old baby girl. I love my baby to bits but sometimes I mourn my past life and wish I never had a baby. I never realised how difficult it would be and how much my life would change. I feel like I can never go back to my old life and there’s so much sacrifices I will have to keep makin...

Days like today I wish I had a "village". Someone i could trust to take my kids so I can catch up on stuff and just relax for little bit. I'm 13 weeks pregnant today and I just want to not do anything. Not have my kids whining at me or fighting over the same toy, not having to make 3 meals plus snacks, just not move...

Anyone feel like they lost themselves after having a baby? I don’t want to go out, it’s not as fun, I use to drink like a fish in the sea..

Ok so does anyone else here live far away from family and find yourself feeling lonely or homesick at times??

We recently moved again, this time a b...

Hey Beauties! Just checking in. How is your week? How are you holding up? The Holidays are tough for me bc i dont have extended family worth my peace. School is kicking my butt, the terrible 2s are worse this time and I think my anxiety has been triggered again 🤦‍♀️ All in all some days are easier than others.

is it just me or is it so lonely being a new mum. i’ve lost all my friends, i spend 99% of my time at home alone. my social anxiety is getting worse because i only have myself as company. i’m petrified to go to a mum group, it’s so bad i spend half my morning throwing up and i don’t even go. i’m so lonely 😭…

I’ve started working from home now being 34 weeks pregnant which i’m so glad about but its been a week and starting to experience a sense of loneliness and depression from being home all day on my own until hubby gets home.

I’m so done saying things over and over again for my toddler not to listen, I’m not gonna yell, raise my high blood pressure by stressing about things today, if you wanna chew on your shoe, throw food off the high chair, mess up the house, eat mud be my guess, as long as I get to have a moment of peace 😂

I don’t care to do self care my hair nails look cute I just miss my old bubbly cute self

I don’t know if it was me being 18 and in high school (Although I’m sure that doesn’t help) but all of my friends abandoned me when they found out I was pregnant. Sure, they acted supportive and told me they were there for me but as soon as they had a reason to stop seeing me (i.e. us graduating high school), they’...
