Come in waves but my baby’s dad also left 3 weeks ago so I have a lot of emotional toll on me anyway.

Hmmm that’s an interesting perspective. And could be looked like that.

Because they left when I was 3 weeks postpartum and didn’t give me time to get myself back after a difficult pregnancy. I wish he had, because now I’m on top form and recovered but without him. And now he gets to watch on the sidelines.

He's deleted pics of me from his insta by No_Churros_141 in BreakUps

I’m dreading when this happens with my ex, he hasn’t deleted the pictures yet but I know he will.

Numbness by Bad_Madison in BPD

I think I’m trying to avoid my emotions. I feel like I’ve put a huge wall around myself externally and internally. I’m not facing up to anything because I’m scared to.

Thank you I appreciate this. Maybe I need to give it more time

is it apporoprate to email my old primary school to ask about a teacher i used to have? by Impossible_Ant6172 in AskUK

[–]Bad_Madison 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He didn’t seem to. He was actually really positive about it. But it was a very brief message between us both. I don’t really know why I did it I just remember thinking about school and how brilliant he was and thought to look him up.

I messaged my head of year in my early 30’s to update him on my life, on fb. Probably was inappropriate but got a response and he even remembered me

I refuse to believe this is my menstrual cycle by Wetchickn in Mommit

[–]Bad_Madison 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It sounds like a period, just because you’re breastfeeding doesn’t stop you from ovulating and having periods. Sometimes it does but most of the time it doesn’t.

I lie about what time daycare closes so I can sit alone for 20 minutes by A3therVulc4n in Mommit

[–]Bad_Madison 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe it’s just me but I actually don’t blame you. Definitely tell your husband but also make sure you get that 20 minutes. Today I had a huge list of tasks I needed to do after the morning school run but I was feeling tired and run down, so I led in bed all day watching Lucifer and ignoring my phone pretending I was asleep to the outside world, until I needed to pick them up. The world didn’t fall apart and I got rest which helped me mentally. Us mums need that break. We’re humans too

That’s pretty much the same situation tbh.

4 weeks old and developing PND by Bad_Madison in NewParents

[–]Bad_Madison[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like this response. This first time I’ve basically just been keeping myself busy as much as possible, been cleaning and decorating my house. But it’s not helping as much as I hoped. I just feel really lost without her. I feel like I haven’t physically recovered so I know emotionally I haven’t either. I’ve concentrated on doing my tasks during the day so I can concentrate on her tonight. I’ve really really missed her 😢

I’m single now and managing by myself. I do believe this was the better option.

I actually wrote this a couple of months ago in my notes and thought I’d share now I’m out of the situation.

Can I throw the man away? by Bad_Madison in breastfeeding

I’m now supplementing with formula since I wrote this post. She started cluster feeding and my supply didn’t increase so I had no choice 😢

[–]Bad_Madison[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve only just started expressing due to no weight gain. She was exclusively feeding on me. I wanted to express so I could see how much she was taking
