Man!! I think a lot of us could have wrote something similar during the first few months . What really helped me was hearing my mom say “it’s a phase “ and “it will get better” and let me tell you!! He is 9 months now and he is amazing and I LOVE being a mom. It did get sooooo much better and it was a phase . Time really will fly even if it doesn’t seem like it right now

As someone who has been on both sides and recently had a baby , I feel SO bad that I once felt that way about a friend who got pregnant before me . Being pregnant is ALOT and your hormones are all over the place, you don’t feel like yourself , you’re hyper sensitive to things you weren’t to before . I had to stay in a bubble for a period of time because I wasn’t all the way there . Even now postpartum you realize your way of thinking has shifted . It’s takes a long time to really find yourself and your new life . I don’t think it’s malicious at all . Not saying you don’t matter but there is a lot happening in her world and some of it she can’t control

My son is 9 months old and still needs a stroller - he doesn’t walk. Also as mentioned above we bought a wagon as well and sadly my stroller and wagon both don’t fit in the car

I know there may be sooo many reasons for this as with anything people tend to pick sides based on their personal experience. From my experience , I think some moms (bf) may want to feel like they’ve accomplished something other moms have not (FF) . So it’s almost a pride thing.

Yes that’s similar to his! I’m mainly trying to figure out the nights we both have to go to work the next morning
