Since the new years I’ve really just felt down like I don’t feel happy about anything, I had quite a traumatic pregnancy from start to finish and from that I’ve just struggled since but I have just learnt to get on with it but the more as time went on the more stuff happened like my family are horrible to me and my ...

Anyone else suffers from back pain in second trimester? What do you do for this?

This is my 4th baby and I am MISERABLE. I honestly don't know how I'm going to make it to term. I've discussed all this with my doctor... but my heart isn't doing well (it's racing constantly) & I have this unbelievable itch under the skin. Not to mention normal pregnancy pains & concerns. Also baby is in the mid 90...

I’m 4 weeks postpartum and I have a breastfed co sleeping baby. As soon as I’m cleared and healed, I can’t wait to get back with his daddy. However, how?! My baby refuses to sleep in a bassinet and I will not be having sex with my baby in the room. What did yall do?? I miss my man. 🥲

My baby is 6months and I am still struggling with lots of hair loss. Should it not be done by now? I'm still breastfeeding, is it the cause?

Posting to see if anyone has been in this situation or been through similar… I go to a baby class on a Friday morning and there are 9 of us at the class. 5 of us attended last months class so we already know each other. Since this month’s classes have started, I absolutely hate going. I feel like I sit there and no...

I don’t know if I should say this, probably shouldn’t. But I think I regret everything . I love my daughter but I’m so sick all the time, I’m more depressed than I was before, I had severe ptsd from sexual abuse from my family my teenage years. My anxiety is worse than ever. I have no friends, no family at all. my p...

Why do I always feel as though I’m a bad mum and as though my 2 year old doesn’t like me. Does anyone else get these overwhelming feelings? I see other parents who have everything under control and great relationships and then I just feel like I’m so different.

My baby daddy and I are officially done after 5 years, 1 daughter, a home together, and some serious boundaries crossed. I told myself i wouldn’t go back. I’m struggling. How do i deal with this. All I’ve done is cry. Everytime i do something simple like grocery shopping, i cry. Remembering the times we had. I need ...

I have a two year old and a 5 month old and both cry with other people that are new or they haven’t seen for a little while, even family and friends. My two year old has just started preschool and is still really crying at every drop off. She can cry when I invite play dates around the house. My five month old cri...

My little one is 8 weeks old, and the biggest hurdle I'm having is getting up the courage to take her out by myself. I've been for a couple of walks and to the local shop once, but I still find the idea of getting her and the pram etc ready and going out really scary, especially the idea of meeting other people. I r...

I’m 10+2 today and my symptoms aren’t subsiding any time soon, I feel like absolute crap all day everyday. The sickness and tiredness is unbearable and I’m actually really struggling to cope and go on feeling like this. I have an 18 month old who I need to be looking after as well and I push through for her obviousl...

Please no judgement! We tried for 5 years for our baby girl. She’s our little miracle after being told i’d never have a baby. I love her more than anything but I’m not enjoying being a parent at all. She is such hard work. She cries and whines all day long. Nothing seems to make her happy. I can’t get anything done...

Hi, Just looking for advice or support really. Our little one is 6 weeks (7 in 2 days) Im finding it really hard to leave her with anyone and was wondering if any of you have had a date night with your partners yet? Even the thought of leaving her for 10 min round trip with my mum (I forgot something at home and...

It’s been two weeks, just found bits of string with knots in when I gently wiped

My highly sensitive almost two year old has full blown melt downs when week old baby cries. I had a c section and trying to calm him and keep him from banging his head on the ground is so so hard. I feel so bad and hopeless when it happens. Most of the time he’s okay with baby, didn’t like him at first but warming u...

I’m exactly 20 weeks today and I think this morning it just hit me that Jesus Christ I need to do all of this all over again. I honestly can’t understand how people enjoy being pregnant. It has just felt like one difficulty on top of another. Once I’d finished vomiting about 8 times a day then none of my clothes sta...

Anyone just blow their top over daft things or had a very little fuse nowadays 🙈 I remember it with my first but even worse with my second. I hope it doesn't last too long
