Anyone else just feel overstimulated all the time/ burnt out?
Sometimes I just feel like I don't want anyone to need me and to stop to-do lists constanty rolling through my head, I just want time on my own and quiet! I feel bad saying it because my husband does his best to help with everything but because he doesn't look after baby as much as I do, he still asks me questions about what baby needs sometimes when I have a moment to myself. I feel guilty feeling like this because we also get help from mother in law weekly and so I just feel like I should be able to handle everything and not get stressed out! Please tell me I'm not alone and this is totally normal?

Yes sometimes the mental load is a lot and would be nice to just hit pause for a while! 🙈
Yes! We need a group zoom to vent 😂😂
You’re definitely not alone! 💕Went on a really long walk alone today until I was ready to go home.
You’re not alone! We have no family nearby and my husband works 6/7 days a week so he can only help out one day a week, being his only day of the week off he’s obviously tired on that day as well, and like you say he needs to ask me questions when I do get some downtime alone etc. We also have a cat who craves for attention so I feel like I have two babies when on my own with them. As you say, love them dearly but yes I could do with some time alone to switch off!

100%! I have been really struggling with this recently. I also always feel touched out as my baby is at a really grabby stage at the moment 😭
