Me asking for help . Im very independent minded and feel as if I can do it all on my own . I realize now I cannot and its forced me to ask for help more than I wanted to or thought I would especially being a now single first time mom

@Redss omg i can relate to that as well ! Still working on it too

Yes I am too girl ! Baby steps I keep being reminded that “its okay to ask for help you know “ like damn okay lol

I noticed that I don’t keep in touch with people well.. I have family members and friends that have reached out to me multiple times during my pregnancy and expressed how they have to talk to my husband to even find out how I’m doing. Over the years, I got so wrapped up in life and “making it” that I assumed ppl were busy doing the same and I lost contact with pretty much everyone. Now that staying to myself and my own little family has become the norm, I really don’t know how to rekindle those ties. But I want my kids to have a village! So I’m trying to get in better at including people in our lives.

sadly given my son a bath bc i’m way too lazy and tired by the end of the day 😭

@Redss anyone can take care of a child on their own but it’s also mentally and physically exhausting 😭 my husband is no help on that end so i’ve learned to do that and take care of two dogs too 😭😭

@Elizabeth oh absolutely they can but nobody should 🙌🏼
