Hi guys, I feel like it’s all started to hit on how hard I am finding motherhood. I absolutely adore my little one and couldnt be more greatful for her. However I just feel like my aniexty is going through the roof and I’m finding the nights really long and hard. She seems to only want to settle on me and no one else and now not even in her bed, so she’s either on me happy or crying so I’m not getting a break. I’m struggling to talk to my partner about it because he’s really stressed at work and I don’t want to make him feel guilty about being away so much. equally I feel I need the support from him but I don’t want to make him feel bad. I’m not managing to do any of the activities I used to do and when I’ve had the rare chance to I’m not enjoying myself. I just feel like I’ve lost all interest and that i don’t really know what to do with myself. Anyone else been feeling the same or got any advice?

I could have written this myself! My little boy will not feed settle of anything with anyone but me! I also have a 3 year old! It's exhausting!

Same my son is screaming his lungs off at the moment. I feel like screaming too, I’m on edge and am scared I’m losing my mind. I definitely don’t see myself having another . It’s so draining. My partner is doing his best but I’m struggling.

@Sian it really is and I don’t know what can be done but I feel I need to find options otherwise I’ll drive myself mad

@Sharon I feel like I’ve lost mine already😂 I’ve been on holiday for a week and it feels like it’s made me feel worst than before we left. I’ve dreaded coming back home Hope you manage to get him to settle soon 🤞🏽🤞🏽 my little one is only wanting to sleep on me again tonight so looks like another sleepless night here too
