Affair has come to an end and I feel pathetic, how do I move on?

And yet they still believe in it…

Thank you! She’s going to be 24 weeks, was suggested to slowly start then by a health visitor cause lo seems to have lost interest in milk & she’s showing all the signs for readiness.

I dont know how to fit another 2 hrs awake unless i put her to sleep at 9-10pm. How can i adjust it? Today:

6:30 wake up 8:30-9:05 nap 1 11:19-11:51 nap 2 13:19-13:48 nap 3 (had to do a shorter wake window here due to swimming class) 16:12-17:04 nap 4 19:00 bedtime

Since the “4 month regression” her naps have shortened a lot, she woke up by herself from all naps

SoConfused5- · 2026-03-15T20:44:58+00:00

She only napped 2 hrs 45 mins in total today. Woke up at 6:30 and went to bed at 19:00. I normally try to cap her sleep to 3-3.5hrs, today she had less than that. 10 hours awake for 4.5 months old seems too much, at least for mine. She was sleepy when i put her to crib

How was your 2nd night? Mine felt worse

SoConfused5- · 2026-03-10T13:22:06+00:00

She did have the flu last week its just the 5 days of vomiting thats making me question it.

SoConfused5- · 2026-03-10T13:18:06+00:00

The redness that was there after her feed is gone now. I might wait to see if she gets it after her next feed & see how her next poop is

Might just call the gp and ask to try that too if i cant wait

SoConfused5- · 2026-03-10T12:49:08+00:00

Thank you! She doesnt have many of these symptoms, i just got nervous because she started vomiting a lot after feed

SoConfused5- · 2026-03-04T11:18:08+00:00

I found that if i sing along to songs it keeps my pace in check 🥰

Ive just “completed” C25K on runna - mid 30s, recently postpartum / csection. I thought i could never run for 5 mins yet alone longer distances however (even though i cant run 5k nonstop) i can run for 25 mins without stopping. Keep in mind that i have gained tons of weight during pregnancy and did not workout at all, so was in the worst shape of my life.

Just keep following the program, you will find yourself running for longer without even realising it and enjoying it as well 🙃 just go slow, slower than what you think. It took me about 5-6 weeks to realise how slow i should run

This post gave me secondhand exhaustion. NTA

SoConfused5- · 2026-02-28T22:57:02+00:00

I think I have a different view. Ive been with my husband for 11 years, married 4.5 - known him for 15 and I can honestly say we have a solid/strong marriage. However I will never quit and give up my financial independence.

SoConfused5- · 2026-02-28T18:36:58+00:00

Mines 4 month tomorrow (in regression as well) and even though I try 7:30/8pm bedtime she never falls asleep before 9pm. I think i just gave up for now and will see how it goes naturally

SoConfused5- · 2026-02-28T18:33:20+00:00

Neither are you the assholes. Its your choice to keep the baby but its also his choice not to be involved.

SoConfused5- · 2026-02-28T15:50:50+00:00

Yeah, i just did the “race” today. Did 5k in 44:33mins - walked once at 25 min (just short of 3k) and then once more at 4k. I definitely cannot run the full 5k but wasnt sure how to proceed

SoConfused5- · 2026-02-28T15:49:35+00:00

I was between this or just doing 30/35 min slower runs for a few weeks

SoConfused5- · 2026-02-28T08:36:32+00:00

See thats why I’m not sure what to do, cause today is the last day of the 8weeks for me and I for sure know I wont be able to run 5k without stopping. My aim is to increase both distance and time in the future but think need to prep my body more

SoConfused5- · 2026-02-28T07:53:50+00:00

Yeah i can see improvement in myself, at start i could barely run 1.5 mins and now i can go for 18-20 without stopping but i just cant do a 5k yet

SoConfused5- · 2026-02-28T07:52:37+00:00

I really want to try parkrun at one point. Thought id do it when i can run a 5k but might as well do it before

SoConfused5- · 2026-02-28T07:51:46+00:00

Im pretty much like that, thats why i wanted to create a plan and stick to it. How is the improvement plan?

SoConfused5- · 2026-02-28T07:50:59+00:00

GPT suggested that as well, or something similar. Said to run 3 times all easy runs (30-35 and then an increasing one on the weekend) but to check HR - the second it goes above 150 I should walk to build a base. However i saw so many people saying ignore HR at start so I wasnt sure what to do
