Losing myself

Hey guys! Not sure if any of you are experiencing this.. recently I’ve felt as though it’s so tough to juggle our baby, my career, my relationship and hobbies - pre-baby i was extremely ambitious - I’ve always had a side hustle with social media + i had a podcast. Since having a baby it’s been SO hard to manage everything.. let alone remember to go to the gym. Is anyone else experiencing this?? Almost like identity crisis. The struggle is real

Yes I am experiencing this same identity crisis. I have no time to be the spontaneous outgoing hot person I was before I am literally 100% mom now. I can tell I wont be able to be that person again for awhile so I’m trying to just embrace the mom faze. I’m sure in the next few years things will change.

Going through the same! I feel for you girl. It’s very hard to be that person we were before becoming moms because we’re needed every second of every day. I feel like even when someone else is taking care of my baby I am still needed because I feel no one can take care of my baby like I can or be there for him like I can. It sucks and I wish I could do both but I try to focus on the mom part for jow.

THIS. I feel like I’m slacking on the career front and hobbies don’t exist anymore! My dad said recently it took him and my mom like 1.5 years to get back to a “normal” routine. Trying to keep that perspective…

YES. It’s so good to hear other people struggling with this! I love being a mom to my little guy but I used to be so many other things before he was born. I’m having a hard time with this.

Yes i was same way. I enjoyed my corporate job pre baby. Then I went back and I hated it. I was so happy to have been laid off. I have been mommy full time till I get another job. It definitely has its days. I feel im finding myself all over again.
