I need a rant, can anyone relate?

So, I’ve made some amazing friends through this app and now have a little friend group to spend time with and I love them don’t get me wrong but all of them are still with their partners. Sometimes they will complain about their partners not doing anything or how they’re so tired and need a break from them. And I feel so guilty to say this but it really annoys me! None of them understand what it’s really like to actually be doing it alone. I don’t get a break! I can’t even just put my baby down and walk away without still hearing him crying. If they’re really need a break they can just pass them and walk away. It is not the same thing! And obviously I love my baby but it is so so hard doing it alone! I wish one of my friends understood or I had someone who did! Thank you for reading my rant and please let me know if I’m being silly or if you feel the same!

Honestly l can relate to that as a single momma lve realised it’s really hard making friends 🙂lve just accepted it…and am sorry you had to go through that it is indeed annoying

@Sam yeah I mean don’t get me wrong I do love my friends and I don’t think they realise it hurts/annoys me but I just wish I had at least someone that actually understood. X

Yeah I’ve come to the conclusion I won’t find someone on here I can relate to because majority of mums with a 5 month old are still with their dad and I’ve been single since 14 weeks pregnant 🤣

Like I even got angry at mum because I was moaning about how I was struggling to get anything done and she was like I did it when your dad worked a lot I said well eventually he came home and you could be baby free for at least 5 minutes I don’t get that her reply was just let her cry like no I physically cannot 🤣

@Chloe Oh I completely get you! I’ve been single since like 25 weeks pregnant I get you 😭😂

@AliyahIt’s rough haha like I love having my daughter all to myself but I still feel robbed of having a supportive partner for my pregnancy because it was roughhh and for just the little moments in her life not having her other parent to share them with

@Chloe Oh my gosh me too! I thought I was being selfish but part of me loves that I get my boy all to myself! Then as you say other times I feel robbed also. My baby has starting saying dadada and it actually breaks my heart hearing it makes me want to cry even though obviously he doesn’t mean it how it sounds 😭

@AliyahAwwh no I’m dreading that I’d just have to be like it’s the easiest word for them to say and repeat that to myself a million times a day

@Chloe That’s what I have to do it’s literally the worst I mean he has literally no clue what he’s saying but it just breaks my heart. Then one of my friends was laughing about it! It really pissed me off to be honest!

@Aliyah Same with my daughter she says dada more than mama 😩l get kinda annoyed but well she’s just a kid

Laughing about it is quite insensitive I’d literally cry

@Sam Yeah that makes me feel a bit better because I get mad too! It’s so annoying but obviously he doesn’t understand. And yeah my friend was like “he says it so clearly!” And started laughing like wtf??

Been doing alone since 25 weeks pregnant my little boy is nearly 3 now. I 100% relate to it all. My little used to say dada and I just kinda ignored it as he didn't understand what it was and I think it's the easiest word for them to say. My son doesn't say it now he's stopped babbling, he did call my dad, dad dad for a while as he couldnt say grandad but now he does point at some of the dads at nursery and say daddy, and I just say yeah that's *child's name* daddy and he just says OK and carrys on. I'm dreading when the time comes when he's gona ask where his dad his. I did have ago at a mum once for moaning a out her partner, I said try doing it with no help, she said I could never, so I said stfu and be grateful then 🙈😂
