Just looking for friend in feltham to meet up as I am 24 weeks pregnant and my family is not in this country, i feel so exhausted and alone crying whole day. My husband works 12 hours.🥲🥲
Went for an interview and didnt get it. Was surprised I didn’t as it seemed to have gone well. Now feeling down. Any suggestions to pick myself up or any encouraging words?
My husband works away and I’m at home with the children. Of course I love them dearly but every time I try and not be resentful of him away in cities and sunny places while I’m only ever here, I fail and I really dislike it. Just looking for a #metoo I guess 🤣😭😭
Lately I’ve been feeling alone more and more, an all my family lives in California I just have my boyfriend out here and even with him I feel so alone i just want to be appreciated and valued.

Does anyone ever feel really alone. The whole TTC journey is so hard and I feel like I’m going crazy at times in the lead up to my period or if I’m a few days late. The limbo part is the worst. That’s two cycles now where I suspect potential chemical pregnancies as I’ve had faint lines and a couple of days later no...

Anyone out there raising your kids alone? How is it for you? Me: alone the whole pregnancy, now alone with the twins while my partner is in another country with no return date. I feel miserable. Love my kids to death but that’s how I feel.
This is my first pregnancy, I didn’t know I was pregnant until I was 7months. I was already lonely before actually finding out. Unfortunately I wasn’t sure when I conceived and not quite sure who my child’s father is. I was in and out of a toxic relationship for 3 years and gave them literally my all just to feel ...
How does everyone feel about being a mum? I love my baby obviously, he’s 13 weeks. But I find the days boring sometimes, and everyday just feels the same. I also miss my old life and being able to do things when I want, like shower, nap, go for a walk, now I have to plan everything around him. And sometimes feels ov...
