Yeah

@ArraDreaming 

I haven’t been on this space in yonks.

I understand how you can love your family to bits but still need something else. I always wanted to be a Mother but that didn’t stop me from feeling really lonely 

[ArraDreaming]

I’m only on this space Oak not the main forums

[ArraDreaming]

I feel kinda isolated at the moment which I know sounds stupid because I’m in a house full of people and love my family and they bring me so much happiness
Just someone to talk to about stuff I got my appointments I don’t mean like that

[Oaktree]

@ArraDreaming 

I love the forums for that exact thing, to have someone to talk to that is outside my family. I get that

[ArraDreaming]

Yeah he is sometimes gotta tell him to back up a little but then he says i just love her too much

for a kid that never shuts up he has managed to be weirdly calm around her 

[ArraDreaming]

It’s hard to say this but sometimes I just need someone to talk to outside of the 4 walls of my house and my family and I feel like I dont really have anyone at the moment…. I will probably delete this 

jusy someone to shoot the shit with but I don’t feel like there are many people that get me or have time to do that 

I don’t really have a lot of time either but yeah idk

Rocky days come with the territory unfortunately. I hope Mrs AD will be ok. If it’s PND then it’s important to get help early. Sounds like your eldest is a champ with helping.

Both doing ok thanks Oaktree, busy time. (I can’t tag sorry$ )
We have definitely had our days, today probably one of them but we will get through, I wont share it all here publicly but Mrs ad is struggling a bit

The kids love her! Our oldest kid just watches her all day and asks what is she doing, can I help, and just wants to sit with her all the time he wakes up in the morning and comes to us straight away
Our almost 2 year old had a rocky adjustment but she is warming up, didn’t like it when anyone held her for the first like week or more? and our middle kid is… breezy as per usual

I just wish they would sleep lol help us (not the baby of course thats pretty standard

Congratulations on the new baby, that’s wonderful news. How are the older kids coping with the new addition?
