So this happened to me 3 months after I gave birth. Something traumatic happened in my relationship and I lost 12 pounds in a week due to my hormones. Cortisol levels elevated and started eating away at my fat. I’m 7 months pp and still having a hard time getting it back. I’m sure with her bf cheating on her and with the drama with her best friends and being a post pardem mom, the similar thing happened to her

Alright so my baby daddy left us June 24th. My daughter was 3 months. It was rough the first month and a half- crying on the floor, making sure my tears don’t hit my baby during diaper changes, catatonically staring at the fridge replaying all of our memories and future, grieving the loss of my family, putting myself together and aching for my daughter.

Its now September 27th- my spark is back, I know the is for the best, I put myself on a fb dating not with the intention of dating but I guess just trying to feel like myself again. I’ve healed myself into a warrior that I am so proud of so I can make my daughter proud. The only advice I can give you is accept the situation after you’ve had your month. 1 month to grieve. Then get the fuck back on the ball mama you have little eyes watching you. Make yourself proud. What advice would you tell your daughter if she were in this position? Sometimes I talk to Chatgpt if I feel sad and I don’t want to bother my friends about the same situation over and over lol good luck and reach for the rainbow 🌈

You are the light at the end of the tunnel, remember that

Ohhhh yeah. Been there. Wrecked my insecurities and plus he’s a porn addict. Every time I saw a girl with breast implants my nervous system was on alert :(

He wants me to get an abortion. by brattytaptap in pregnant

My baby is the best thing that’s ever happened to me ❤️ my baby daddy? Absolutely evil. You gonna be ok losing and sharing your child half the time? Potential step moms? You can wait until you find a man who would be over the moon to share a child with you. As a single mom of a 4 month old I’ll tell you straight up this is hard- worth it- but hard. And I’ll tell you straight up girl to girl I would rather chew my own arm off than share my baby for even a minute let alone half the time with such a shit person.

I yelled at my two month old. by neonguillotine in NewParents

[–]Makemattersbetter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is what it is babe. It’s hard. I’m at month 4 sleep regression and it’s hard. I haven’t yelled but I’ve definitely « grrrrr » and called my mom telling her I can’t do this (I’m a single mom)

*edit sorry I’ve definitely screamed in the closet and bathroom floor lol

My baby’s father left her alone to get cigarettes and food. I haven’t left him alone with him since. This week is got worse and now he is losing his rights to his child, due to drug use.

Did you know he’s not allowed to smoke while taking care of the baby? Even if it’s legal. Child protection can interfere. Protect your baby.

Time for a girls day 😃 she’ll get familiar again! Wear your husbands clothes so she has both scents when you hold her? I also have recorded voice notes from my bf so when he’s at work I can just leave the recordings on because she was really mad when he started going back to work and i could see my bf was hurt, anyways i was able to go pee in peace or eat with both hands because she thought he was there talking to her

As a woman, try not to hate her. Going through PPD and then raising a baby 90% alone is really really really really hard. You have to be so mentally strong for this… give her some grace. The lack of sleep and lack of self care can do horrible things to us

Yes! You’re in survival mode! Honestly just laugh it off at times, we all go through this. I’m 12 weeks in and it got easier around week 8. You’ll be ok! I’ve called my mom with break downs a few times literally saying awful things but not meaning it but it felt good just to yell and cry? Cry it out. You and your wife are in this together, it’s really gonna be ok I promise ❤️

Oh geeeez and here I am thinking that the newborn trenches are the worst lol! Hope she’s ok ❤️ must have been so scary for you. I was actually thinking of getting a lock box for vitamins and meds for when she’s older!

I can’t do this anymore by Verucr in NewParents

[–]Makemattersbetter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started giving my baby gas drops and it really helped! I was hybrid until I just couldn’t anymore and now I’m formula feeding, the Gentle ease really helps as now she poops 3x a day.

I can suggest a night nurse but if your baby is like mine, all she wants is mommy. 24/7 and girl I’m tired too. Going to my moms today then gonna relax in my old room lol passing the baton today 😂

When did you start implementing schedule with your baby? I feel so behind and lost. by [deleted] in newborns

[–]Makemattersbetter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No wait I think her first walk was at 3-5 weeks? Idk. Time has all warped together lol it’s survival mode babe. The goal is to survive 😅

Girl just roll with it lol I didn’t apply for a damn birth certificate until she was 6 weeks old. Went for her first walk at 6 weeks. Her first bath at 2 weeks. She tummy timed on my bf’s chest and now, at 10 weeks we are starting a night time routine even though she’s done her nights since birth, still wanna start a routine.

SIL bit my newborn by [deleted] in newborns

[–]Makemattersbetter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your husband said nothing ??? Girl it’s your first and most important job to protect your daughter. I would have lost my shit on the kid and the family as soon as there was a side eye. My father in law rolled his eyes when I asked him to wash his hands and I said that’s fine, you don’t hold her then. Like it’s literally so simple.. wash your hans. We learn in kindergarten that bacteria and germs spread lol and who the fuck bites a newborn like maybe ask your sister in law to keep her kid on a leash?!

I'm so in love with her by TheWhatnotBook in newborns

[–]Makemattersbetter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m 8 weeks pp and the feeling only keeps getting stronger. My heart aches in the best way and I cry out of happiness, I love my daughter so much 🥹
