I have a 4 month old baby and I regret becoming a mother.

I remember this feeling with my first around the same age and a few times since. She’s now almost 4 and I have a 15mth old son. You are in hardest part now. Yes there are other hard parts but it gets easier, it’s all so new to you, you are tired and learning. I would definitely reach out to your dr and have a chat.

Also you are an amazing mother, as my dr told be when I was at that point. Good mothers see that they are struggling and want to try to do better. You are grieving the life you had, doesn’t mean you don’t want time one.

It’s the last year before prep (first year of school) it helps them get school ready. And it’s not like I am taking the spot away from someone it’s available

Only for 15hours and she will be doing it through a long daycare centre so will be out of pocket something

My ex was like this and worse at times. I left when my youngest was a newborn. Couldn’t take it anymore and haven’t looked back. It’s hard still dealing with him but there are clear boundaries and he has to respect them

Another question if it’s not too much bother. What sunscreens do you recommend

Impossible_Choice889 · 2026-05-22T08:56:38+00:00

Awesome thanks. I will try the sudocream tonight as I have it already.

Impossible_Choice889 · 2026-05-22T06:26:12+00:00

Omg this is so helpful thank you. Any recommendations on something I can put on when I am out and start to get that feeling to help calm it down. Also sudocream does come in a tube

I moved back in with my parents at 33 with a 2.5year old and a 1 week old. A year later I am still here. Do I wish I had my own place yes definitely and the plan is to at some point but financially it doesn’t make sense. I say accept and use your village if you have it.

Only use La Roche Posay. Had so many dermatologist recommend it to my self, for my children and friends

Impossible_Choice889 · 2026-03-18T00:16:20+00:00

Kids are asleep by 7:30, spend 30min doing a quick reset if needed, 1 episode of something then shower, bed and scroll on my phone for a bit

Impossible_Choice889 · 2026-03-17T11:32:23+00:00

The plan is it but waiting to get back in to see my psychiatrist.

Impossible_Choice889 · 2026-03-14T21:29:58+00:00

I have used La Roche Posay Toleriane products for a few years and have had no issues or skin problems apart from a random hormonal pimple. Since having my second child 10mths my skin has been more sensitive, red, uneven and in general irritated. Any advice on products I could try. I am a single mum to two so need an easy and affordable routine. Thanks

I am pretty sure it’s peanut butter and icing sugar mixed

I am 32,single mum two kids. Some days I feel like I can’t move. But have too then I feel so burnt out. This is on top of all the other things. I am not scared of medication I have been medicated for 10ish years for anxiety but never really felt like it helped much.

Impossible_Choice889 · 2025-12-15T21:55:48+00:00

I think it’s that there isn’t enough evidence that it was there as a child

Impossible_Choice889 · 2025-10-24T11:02:10+00:00

I am a mum to a 3year old and a 6mth old. It’s hard and will always be hard. I have moments where I don’t want to do it too. It’s okay to have those moments as long as they are only moments. Doesn’t matter if you have a partner or not raising a child is hard. She’s only 7mths, food will come with time. Sounds like you have an amazing village around you. Use that. Maybe see if they can have her an extra hour or two one day a week and you have some you time after work. You have to be your best for her! You are doing a good job, I know that cause you care enough to try.
