Finding it hard to really spend any time together. Baby only contact naps and co sleeps so always close by. We’re either taking turns with baby or doing things at home like cooking and cleaning up, taking care of the dog. No family to help look after little one for us to have a date night or anything like that. ...

As I lay here in bed with the baby inside me kicking, I can't help but realize how alone I really am. The only happiness I'll ever get is from this baby and future children. I'll only ever be good for taking anger out on. I'll never deserve to be treated as an equal or even human. I don't know why I stay, but I know...

I'm 30 years old with a 2year old boy and a little girl due in December. I just want to feel beautiful again. I want to get my hair done at a salon and my nails painted. I want to have a style and not just throw on a T-shirt and yoga pants. I want to just be a girl and take care of myself like I used to. But I'm not...

I finally did it after reading all the posts and responding to majority of them, I made a decision. A decision to put me and my family first. I quit my position on a board of directors despite feeling some sense of shame and disappointment in not sticking it out longer. I am proud of myself! I now have further time ...

So I’ve had anxiety for the last 8 years since my mum getting unwell and passing away and every other eventful traumatic experiences after that.

Just wanted to have a little rant honestly and as the title suggests I don't really have anybody else to ramble to. I have no village. I have no friends and when I say no friends I mean no friends. I thought I had a friend but I'm just a person to them. I have my husband and our son. Occasionally I see my dad and ho...
