Vent / feeling low 😕

I’m so frustrated my partner was talking to our daughter this morning and made a joke of “and we’ll see what mommy is going to complain about next week”

I’ve had so many issues in the last 12 months through pregnancy and first few months post partum, I don’t mean to complain but I’m just exhausted and tired of not feeling like myself.

In pregnancy I suffered severe SPD to the point I could barely walk (still having treatment now 5 months pp) and acid reflux that’s left damage to my food pipe so I’m now struggling to eat properly and losing weight (waiting to see a specialist)

Since birth I had a UTI and covid in my first week after birth (an absolute brutal few weeks), ongoing issues with my wisdom teeth which I’ve been trying to get removed so I’ve been on multiple courses of antibiotics/painkillers etc which also causes me pain eating too and a bout of norovirus that totally wiped me out.

All this on top of trying to EBF my 5 month old and sustain the baby which despite all the crap I’ve had going on I feel soo proud of myself for, multiple night wakings on top of struggling to sleep for being in constant pain

I finally have surgery scheduled for next week to sort my wisdom teeth and hopefully end the pain I’ve been struggling with and I’m so frustrated that my partner is making light of it when all I want is to feel like “me” again, I feel like my body has been through hell and back the last 12 months 😔

Rant over 😮‍💨
