@brie_matthews: No one wants to post the lows until they’re past them and can say “ya I was going through it THEN”… but I’m here to say straight up I’m not doing okay NOW. And I truly hope this encourages someone to check up on their friends. Even when they seem okay. Cuz maybe they’re not ❤️🩹 #motherhood #momlife #MentalHealth #momrage
My baby is 14 months and I think my emotions are worse then when I was freshly postpartum…

Stay Wild :
I'm 7 months postpartum from my stillborn and no one would ever know anything had happened. But they can't see what's happening inside and how every waking moment feels like I am erupting, while sinking, while drowning, while screaming with no sound, so no one can come to save me. But even if they came, I wouldn't know what I needed, except for my baby back.

14 months postpartum… I feel worse than I did when I was freshly postpartum. The dark thoughts have come back and I do not recognize who I am. Hopefully the light will show up soon

Honestly, not great Brie. I hit pretty hard lows at 4-5mo pp, 9ish, and recently at 16-17 mo pp after stopping bf at 16mo. I’m tired. I have nothing left in me to give. I feel lost. Idk where to go from here?

I actually needed to hear this. everyone told me as soon as she turned a year old id want another one. and I didn't feel that way. so its helpful for me to know you did feel that the first time but not the second. I still can't imagine having 2 kids. everytime I think about having another one i imagine the baby crying and the toddler screaming. and were 2.5 years in with 1 kid. and shes great. but I don't know if id be ready to add to my plate. I just now feel like ive grown into this new version of me and I don't want to jeopardize that with another.

morgan | ivf mama :
I was doing so good mentally freshly post partum given my traumatic birth, I felt so supported by my husband but as time has gone on (18 months) I feel like I’ve slowly been loosing myself and I feel like it’s affecting my marriage. I almost feel embarrassed or ashamed to admit it out loud 🥲

I feel so bad for my husband when I have snappy moments. I never mean it 😞 I am so thankful for him. I always leave social events questioning if I was too much, if I shared too much, if I passed my baby around too much. Letting Jesus back in my life is helping me cope but I still have moments that slip.

My first is almost 2.5 years old and my second is 6 months. I feel this to my core. Especially with the second time around. I’m a completely different version of myself now then I was when I had my first baby. Learning to love the new version of yourself that you aren’t sure of is so so hard! I see you, I hear you and no matter what I’m proud of YOU! ❤️
