Have you left your baby yet? If so, how long did you wait and what did you do with your first solo time?
Anyone else really struggling at the minute? The days seem to go by so slowly and I feel like I’m not doing enough and it’s just like living the same day over again. I don’t have a lot of help from my partner and i just feel like I’ve completely lost myself.
I’m back to work and find it such an adjustment being around people who never talk about babies (which I completely understand haha) I feel like I got so used to all my interactions being with other mums on maternity leave and actually feel quite sad leaving this maternity bubble behind. I know this sounds a bit unf...

When I was little I dreamed to be an Animation artist and then I remember someone asking me “why do you want to be an animator?” And I strong said “ because I want to be able to make other happy and laugh. I want this world to be happy and if I can do that through a cartoon, then that’s all the joy I need.” Now I’m ...

But for a second when I saw their p...
From what you've leaned in life so far, what percentage of humans are good?
You ladies seem like you have it together, even those of you with young babies! I have an almost 4 month old and some days just feel so hard. I don’t always enjoy being a mama, I’m not always patient and it breaks my heart. How do you do it?
Anyone else just feel so fucking lonely? Thank god I have my baby, I’m basically a single parent living with my partner. I literally can’t stand him anymore and wouldn’t ever leave him with her, he’s never had her on his own and does absolutely nothing to help. It’s exhausting and so fucking frustrating!
I'm the first (and only) of my girlfriends to have a baby. They have their lives, either studying or working, single or in a relationship. I have nobody to talk to or spend time with (except my mom, my baby & my dog). Every single day feels the same because I'm a sahm. I just want to meet moms who understand ho...
Does anyone else feel sad sometimes they don’t have a village? My husbands away a lot so my daughters only have me.

We’re no contact with my ...
