Struggling

Anyone else really struggling at the minute? The days seem to go by so slowly and I feel like I’m not doing enough and it’s just like living the same day over again. I don’t have a lot of help from my partner and i just feel like I’ve completely lost myself.

Have you gone to any baby groups to try get yourself out and about? Maybe help break your days up abit? Can you see if your partner will have baby in the evenings even if just for half an hour so you can go for a walk? Or have a catch up with friends?

Yes you're not alone. The advice above is great but personally I have such bad social anxiety and ontop of that I feel like I just can't take my baby out alone it seems like an impossible task so it's really hard to join groups etc. If you can that's one of the best things but if you're like me at least join a few online groups of mums so you can speak to them and see how you're not alone in your struggles. Trust me it makes a big difference just knowing that it's not only your child not sleeping or not being put down or whatever else. And it also sometimes just eases your mind when you have a question and your partner isn't helpful

I feel you I suggest maybe plan some days of the week with a class or meeting a friend nothing too crazy. it helps so much I still have some alone days at home but I also try to have few days that are different and maybe a bit more challenging because I have to take baby by myself out on transport sometimes or longer distances than usual… and this has been help with confidence and day went so fast
