Mental Health

My parter is always at work and all my family & friends are at work too. I feel so lonely and even though they all offer support, it’s hard for them to do it when they are all working. I don’t have any friends who are at the same stage as me so I have no one to talk to or hang out with who’s also had a baby. Some ...

My bf of almost 7 years and the father of my 4 year old and I split last week. He was my person.. and I'm feeling completely broken. I'm new here and looking for some mom friends/support. My 4 year old is a handful, it takes all my energy just to manage my job lately. I'm struggling :(

Hey girls I have a question! Have any of you gone away without your little ones before and not felt guilty? My hubby and I are on our honeymoon in the Gold Coast and we left our son who’s 20 months old with my mum (his nana) who he adores, so our sons back in SA. I have felt guilty the whole time we have been away ...

I had to move back with my mom due to addiction problems (I didn’t know I was pregnant, and have been clean since). I had no where else to go and I just showed up cuz she wouldn’t answer and I was on the street. Now I’m here, she’s completely ignoring me. I’ve been asking for prenatals for a week, and she’s gone to...

Just gave birth six weeks ago and things are different between my bf and I. It’s hard for me to explain but it’s freaking me out. I don’t ever want to be a single mom. 😭

Those with health anxiety (I mean bad, panic attacks at times), how do you cope??? All I can think about is something being wrong with me or someone I love and i get panicky.

Hey all, I've recently left my partner, it's been a very long time coming, unfortunately we were not a priority. Anyway I've made some lovely Mum friends from classes etc, but gosh now I'm a single Mum, I just feel so lonely, like everyone has a nice partner to go home to, and when they speak about their weekend...

Hi! Had my son almost 2 weeks ago and so far I’ve been somewhat adjusting. My mother was in town since he was born and recently left. Now it’s just my husband and I and I’m on maternity leave for about 6 weeks total. I’m just struggling with the fact that I no longer have any help from family and I know I might hav...

Today did not go the way I want to and now I’m stressed and feel like ima get into a depression…

somedays I don’t feel like myself and it’s driving me and my partner away.. somedays I wish I could click a button and restart my life but then again I wouldn’t have my baby.. I feel like i’m going no where. It’s hard.

I’m having a hard week this week. Just feeling really lonely even though I’ve met up with friends and baby and I have been to a sensory class today. Not helped by my husbands family being weird about stuff, like his mum doesn’t seem interested in seeing me or baby, plus husband and I had a fight (rare) about his fam...

Anyone else out there a single mum & either not have any family or just no family support at all? How do you cope.. the mum guilt is unbearable my daughter doesn’t have doting grandparents or her father around

Also, this might sound like an odd question, but does anyone struggle to connect with their baby whilst pregnant? I've seen some pregnant women really connected to their soon-to-be baby, and I feel I want to be at that stage too. I used to be more excited, but I’ve had some ups and downs with my in laws which has ma...

Called an assistance line with 3 areas stressing me out and keeping me up at night to vent/talk about solutions I already put in place. Purpose of the call was a sanity check/sounding board on my approach/topics. I got through one area and the person didn’t listen to half the things I said so I had to repeat 3 items...

My 5 month old daughter doesn’t recognise me or smile after I come home from work after she sees me all day, I just feel sad
