Losing Pink Feeling?

I feel empty. Like not depressed, I’m not crying all the time, I feel okay. I just feel blah and it’s not going away. I don’t know why I feel like this. I feel very fulfilled by motherhood and my baby. I only feel like this when he’s asleep. Is that that “losing your pink” feeling?

I've never heard of that phrase 'losing your pink feeling'. What is that?

@Melanie It’s referring to whenever flamingos have babies, the mothers lose their pink color for a while until their babies become more independent.

Oh, interesting

Are you bored? ...

@Kat honestly yeah, I think so. I’m a SAHM so not much varies in my day to day.

Same here! I'm a newly sahm and my babe is super attached. Can't put him down for more than 20 minutes without him howling to be picked up again. We're figuring ourselves out again! I'm going to start seeing and doing crafts this way I can still be around him, but occupy my time while he sleeps or nurses to help with feeling unproductive

Yeah, I understand. I'm starting to get bored too lol maybe even a little overwhelmed. I decided we're going to start going to the library. They have what they call Baby Time on different days where they read stories and different stuff. Figured I can socialize and meet some moms with kids the same age lol get us out and about
