Welcome to Motherhood Support

...See more Welcome to Motherhood Support!  Whether you’re pregnant, postpartum, trying to conceive, parenting, or supporting someone you love - you’re in the right place. If you feel up for it, introduce yourself in the comments: 1) Where are you at in the motherhood journey? If supporting a mother/mother-to-be, who are you on the team? Examples: pregnant (how many weeks), postpartum (how many weeks/months), TTC, parenting a toddler/teen, supporting a partner/friend/sister etc. 2) What’s one thing that’s been helping you feel a little more okay lately? It can be tiny - a nap, a walk, a show, a snack, a person, a playlist. 3) Icebreaker: If you could get one “free assist” this week, what would it be? A “free assist” just means one helpful thing someone could do for you - a small lift that makes the week easier. Meal drop-off, laundry reset, a ride to an appointment, 30 minutes alone, someone to hold the baby while you shower - anything that can help you! We're excited to meet and support you! Feel welcome to share whatever is comfortable.

...See more Hello all, I am new here, and I don’t generally share my feelings like this, but I thought it would be healthy to try it out. I am just an overwhelmed mama of two, I have a 5 year old daughter and a 2 year old daughter. I am a stay at home mom and a full time student. I am working on getting my BSW online. With juggling the girls, school, and the household I just feel completely overwhelmed. My husband works and provides, which I do appreciate, but when he’s home with us he’s checked out and doesn’t help me. I clean, cook, look after the girls and maintain my good grades in school I literally have no time for myself. I love my husband, but it just feels like we’re at a standstill - he thinks he does enough providing for the family, and I feel like I need help and a break at times. It’s a tale as old as time. He’s really into collecting Pokémon right now, which is fine, but he goes over board with it at times. He’s also always on his phone and playing Fortnite. There are a lot of times I feel un heard. I moved out here with him 3 years ago so I have no family or friends which is very isolating. I recently saw a psychiatrist and got on some antidepressants and anti anxiety medications, which have helped, but I still feel trapped in this cycle. I love my girls more than anything, I love our family, but it’s just been so hard since my second daughter was born. I guess I just needed to vent, I’ve been enjoying reading the other posts on this forum, it makes me feel like it’s a safe place to share! Thank you!

...See more My child goes to the daycare from middle September and last 5 months I can't handle him anymore. He is requesting 50 things per minute, not a single second break. I don't have capacity to deal with him all day, alone. No, I don't have anybody to take care of him, as my husband is not able handle him. Only way how to survive with him is to be outside, but I am so exhausted that I can't do that anymore. I am totally empty, exhausted and I don't have even mood to see him. My husband stressing me only more by being *** every single day. What is this live about?

Just pregnancy thoughts

...See more Just going to share the thoughts that are running around in my head.... I know I'm pregnant, but is there really a living, blueberry-sized baby in there? Is it normal that my nausea is more manageable this week than last week? Will this baby make it? Can I have the ultrasound today instead of on Monday? I think I've waited long enough. Can it be Monday the 11th already???

Struggling

...See more Hey guys! I’m new here.. and I hate to be a so called “Debbie downer” on my first post. I literally just googled support groups and this one was the first one to pop up. I’m struggling. I’m struggling with life, my marriage, and being a parent. I wake up and just don’t want to do it anymore. My husband and I have 3 kids. I stay at home with them 24/7 and my husband works. We have no help from family. So I don’t ever get a break.. I know that sounds so selfish and I should be grateful. But even when my husband is home I don’t get a break. He literally sees me struggling doing everything with the kids and he doesn’t even offer to help me. I don’t want to seem like im bashing him because I’m not. I guess I just don’t understand. Anytime I see him frustrated I try to do what I can to make his life easier. And when he’s home it feels like he’s not even here. Stuck on his phone or the game.  Our kids are very close in age and extremely active. So I am constantly on edge keeping them out of stuff and dealing with tantrums.. I guess I just need to vent but also find support. I have no one.. I don’t have time for friends because it’s too much to take all three kids out and work around everyone else’s schedule..

...See more I need some advice for how to get my toddler to eat his food. I cant get him to eat what i make for him. He only wants snacks and milk most the time. When i try to hand him a piece of fruit he only pretends to take a bite and then is no longer interested. This is my first and only child and i have zero support im a single mom and this issue has been going on way too long im starting to worry and am completely overwhelmed. He tells me no everytime i try to get him to eat, but this morning he tells me hes hungry and wants cake so i made him something sweet french toast sticks,  but didnt give him cake and he wouldnt touch that either.

...See more I live an hour away from civilization. I'm alone with my toddler almost all day every day. When I'm too tired to do anything besides grow another person, my toddler thinks that's the best time to push my buttons. I can't regulate my mood when I'm that tired, and I react too strongly to him. What am I supposed to do?

...See more Alguna mamá por acá que se sienta sola? Me está pasando hace 2 meses de sentirme encerrada en la maternidad, solo salgo de mi casa para ir a trabajar 😔 Is there any mom here who feels lonely? For the past two months, I’ve felt trapped by motherhood; the only time I leave the house is to go to work 😔

My baby and depression

...See more Ive been struggling the past week or so with my depression. Could be attributed to several things-started a new weight loss med, I was on vacation from work last week, the weather changes- but id been feeling so guilty about being sad because I have the best daughter in the would and shouldn't have a reason to be sad. And then last night, my daughter was playing with my hair and said "mommy's hair beautiful" and it just made everything better ❤️
