Feeling lonely

I feel alone in my home, like I live with a stranger.... every decision I make is bad... I’m losing weight because my lack of appetite, I have no help with my son at home, his father is always on the move with the one car we have that he alwAys complains about and then I’m stuck in the house... he has his head in the clouds and I need him back to reality before it’s forced upon him.... where is the undo button

well....good way to bring him back down to earth is take the car keys....show him where the nappies, baby food, and bottles are and take the car and tell him you'll be back sometime later....but don't know when...and see how he likes it. If he's going to be a part of making the baby, he can be a part of minding the baby while you have a life too.

Yeah, play him at his own game!

Great reply faux and I would do exactly the same! x

Hello Newmommy211!!

If you’re a new Mom, I completely understand how you’re feeling! Not every decision you make can be bad, you’re probably just reacting to them badly. Every new parent needs help. It sounds like you need to get out of the house too! Make that a priority for yourself and get some fresh air! Visit with a friend. Tell him you must have the car during that time. Hang on, my friend! Everything gets easier as baby grows! Wishing you the best!! 💐

This weird, icky feeling after baby will subside, I promise!! His Mother is uninformed and judgmental. Do what you know to be right for both you and your baby and hold your head high!! Believe and trust in yourself...🌷🌝

that's typical....the most clueless seem to have all the answers....your better off being at home probably....but do work out to get the car, and take time for yourself. You don't have to be trapped....and when the baby gets older, your freedom to move around will be easier too.

What an old witch she sounds. It is your baby and you bring him up the way you think best. If she is going to dictate to you then she should put her money where her mouth is.

Maybe you can suggest she buys you another car so you would find shopping for baby formula a lot easier! x

Yea right about the buying a car she’s overly dramatic somebody cut me off on the highway while she was on vacation and we had her all white Dodge Challenger which left a small scrape and her knowing our circumstances she demanded money right away saying she can’t drive her car like that and never said well adlease you and my grandson are safe nothing

haaa!!!....that's a great idea hypercat54.....I'm sure a few of us have MIL stories, I know my first marriage was in part destroyed by the meddling and manipulating of my ,(thank god) ex-MozILLA....watch yourself girl...and don't be drawn into her drama....anyone who would tell the mother of her grandchild something as rude and crass as that is probably best to be avoided.

I would not take an aggressive approach. Try telling him how U feel n that U need an afternoon away. Try to handle it in a positive manner.
