Not enjoying motherhood

Anyone feel like they are not enjoying motherhood? My baby will be 6 months soon and I dread each day. My partner is working all the time. I miss my old life. Will it get better??

Ah this is really sad to read, i’m sorry to hear this. Can you speak with a GP or similar? It sounds like a bit of post natal depression. Can you reach out to friends or family at all, even for a coffee or lunch?

I feel this too. I absolutely dread Mondays coming around to the point I could cry

@Dollie my partner does help when he’s home but I think u have separation anxiety when he’s in work. @Rhian is glad I’m not on my own 🥰

Have you tried getting glimpses of your old life? If there is something you particularly enjoyed then can you achieve similar with a baby? I’ve been wine tasting, baby cinema and long lunches with friends with baby in tow. Life doesn’t have to end 😀
