First time mom, having a hard time mentally
My beautiful little girl is 8 months today! I’m so proud of her and myself for all of the growth we’re both going through.. but I still can’t help but feel like I’m not doing enough😔 I live with my partner, and he’s a tremendous help with our baby. I just am in my head quite a bit. We’re going to therapy currently due to some issues we’re having regarding trust. I have a rough time with initiating intimacy due to issues of my past, and it’s just been such a hinder on me and our relationship honestly. We’ve been together 6 years, and I just wish he wouldn’t take me not being in the mood personally.. I’ve tried so many times to work on it but it’s so hard.. I guess I’m just looking for relatability and some love/support 💜 much love!

Sending all my love, went through something very similar with my daughter’s dad and we’ve currently decided to have some time apart because it wasn’t healthy for us. It’s stupidly hard to navigate mentally, but you’ve got this mama xx
I went through something similar with my husband and I just realised that as much as I need cuddles and kisses, he needs sex as that’s how he connects. So I have decided to prioritise him and try more, even sometimes I don’t feel like it. Our relationship has never been better and we have never been closer. Not sure if that would work in your circumstances, but if possible give it a go :)
