Feeling really down

becky1993

I'm just wondering if anyone has any advice for me. I feel like everything is getting too much. I'm a stay at home mother to a 2 and half year old and due a baby any day now. My partner works up to 60 hours a week and we live in a small apartment with no garden and first floor. I feel so low been in all day and feel terrible on my 2 year old as he's no garden and im constantly worried if hes bored.I do bring him out to playgrounds etc but I find it hard on my own been so pregnant and no transport. This apartment drags me down I feel like I'm in a box with nobody to talk to and im finding it impossible to find a bigger place to live.

Sounds like you're being hard on yourself as a mother. You're doing the best you can. Just like your mother before you, and her mother before her. You're conscious of keeping your child stimulated - many wouldn't even think of that. Not being a parent I take my hat off to all parents - I can barely look after myself!

Kinda crazy

Hey, Being pregnant you will probably experience varied emotions including tiredness, loneliness and isolation and guilt. Maybe you could find out if there are any mother and toddler groups around your area or other group that you maybe able to join. This way you and your child may meet someone to play with
