Anyone else feel like they are parenting alone?

I am currently staying home with baby until i can get a new job and go back to work. So my fiance is the only one financially supporting us and has been working overtime hours to make ends meet. He also does take care of stuff around the house like laundry,dishes,etc. However I don't feel the help with the baby stuff. He will change diapers if i ask him too but thats about it also Its never him taking initiative.i understand he works alot sometimes but i juat feel so alone raising baby. And i feel guilty asking him for more help then he's already giving me with other things. Its juat getting almost too much for me to deal with baby because I can't ever catch a break. Also I feel guilty or a bad mother per say because i feel like I should be able to do this but im struggling. Anyone else dealing with this?

Yes I’m in a similar position ur not alone girl 🫶 ask him for more help or to take more initiative, don’t hold that in or feel guilty. It’s a lot being w baby most of the time espically if ur breastfeeding or if baby never wants to be put down (or both in my case 😅) and we’re dealing w hormones and postpartum we need help!

@Caitlin yeah it sucks because she is definitely mommy girl because like you ssid im breastfeeding/pumping plus she never wants to be alone. So when he does have her because hes not with her as much shes screams until I take her.
