Feeling forgotten *NEEDED TO VENT*

My mom and I have been BFFs forever I don’t hang out or socialize with many people my age. And I never minded because I always had my mom to talk to.

Last year she became a direct sales consultant and it’s as if she forgot that she’s a mom first. The only time I ever hear from her anymore is talking about the company’s products and or if I can drop what I’m doing to help her with her business.

What’s MOST annoying about it is i am 30 weeks pregnant with my second child. With my first, she was constantly over at my place helping me prepare, getting my home in order and nesting/cleaning with me. This time around it’s like pulling teeth when I ask for a hand with some chores.

The most she offers is to “watch” my 2 y/o She acts as if she is so busy when in reality she isn’t making sales/booking parties she is just scrolling her tablet on the couch at home. And when I do let her babysit she puts YouTube on for my kid (which she knows I’m not a fan of) never asking if he has to use the potty (we’re trying really hard at home to start training) and every time he comes home with a soaking wet pull-up.

I feel terrible because I’m one of the last supportive family members she has everyone else is over the sales convos and constant asking to buy her products that they’ve all run for the hills and avoid talking to her but I’m getting very irritated with her now (and my hormones are not helping) but I’m afraid if I say something she will spiral into a bad depression and I feel so alone already I’m afraid she’ll “unfriend”me

Adding:

Well I don’t know what kind of relationships you have with your moms.. doesn’t sound very close. I’m 23 she’s also young we were always more like sisters. I moved back to the city she lives in because she’d cry that she missed me and her grandson and now I’m left high and dry she only speaks to me when it’s convenient to her or she needs me to make stuff for her business (I have a cricut machine) never to check up on the family I’m not jealous I’m annoyed that she can’t draw the line between work and life even when her marriage to my dad and their financial stability is at stake.

Like the title says I just needed to vent didn’t expect judgey comments thanks tho
