Really feeling the lack of not having a village

I love being a mom. I’ve been so lucky. Im just coming out of that newborn bubble I just went back to work. & now I’m really seeing how I really don’t have anyone. My family is so disconnected. I’m lucky that my BFs mom watches baby and his siblings are great but that feels like his village. I just feel alone in it & that I really have no one to share in this. It really just feels like it’s me and baby

I know how you feel it’s just me and my husband and he works full time so it’s just me and baby at home most of the time. The sleep deprivation is definitely kicking in. Sending love your way ❤️

I know how you feel, absolutely no village over here, just me and my partner, he sadly only has his dad left now, who’s not really involved at all and my parents are in a different country and visit once a year. I love being a mummy, but I just feel so sad for my 3.5 year old for growing up without grandparents 😢

I have no village, just me and my partner, it’s sad, nobody is interested

I know how you feel. We are no contact with my in-laws and my family lives an hour away. I’m grateful that my family is always willing to help but they’re far away. I don’t really have friends to hang out with either so it’s mostly just me as my partner travels for work

I also have absolutely no village. I m fortunate my partner is my village... But he is the one and only.

I think most of us feel like that 😢😢😢

I feel you. My MIL is great and watches our boy while I go to work part time. But my mum is deceased and my dad is useless at helping with kids. My brother and SIL can’t look after our boy and are no use. We got no one else
