Question

Hi , I just need somebody to vent to because I don't really have anybody to talk to .. I'm 19 & pregnant with my first child . I'm 29 weeks & im really excited about the baby etc but there's just a lot of stuff bringing me down . I'm not working right now because it's hard for me to stay on my feet . I'm in the house a lot , I don't really do anything & I don't have any friends , like not even one . My last BestFriend was talking about me behind my back & just added too much drama to my life so I decided to just stop being friends w/ her . The father of my child is still in my life  & he's excited / happy about the baby but he moved to Dallas & I live in Houston . He moved a couple of months ago because of family issues . We broke up a few months ago but I'm still grateful that he's still in my life .For New Years I was going to hang out w/ my cousin but she didn't really seem to want to be bothered , she said she wanted to go out & drink & I can't do that , makes me feel like I have no one to relate to . Lately I've been feeling lost , I have nothing to do all day & I feel like I don't have a purpose . My little girl is due March 19th , I know I'll have a lot to do then but for now I don't know what to do about this empty feeling . Does anybody have any suggestions on what I could do or how to fill this void I have in my life right now ?

Answer

My guy is due March 19th as well. I'm also in the same boat. I stay home and have not a single friend. Even my family lives 12 hours away. I get really lonely and depressed sometimes. Life just seems to be an absolute drag right now. My husband is always in a shitty mood and it really upsets me. Wish I had advice for you but it seems my life is just as suck as yours right now lol.

Answer

Oh honey, get involved with a mommy group...pronto. Staying home all the time and all alone is a recipe for disaster. This mommy thing isn't a walk in the park and you are going to need a big support system. Especially if PPD becomes a part of your life. (That PPD is no joke, it almost killed me). So please please please reach out to gals in your area. Try a pregnant water aerobics class or prenatal yoga, or any pregnancy classes or even a LeLeche League (breast feeding mommy group). You've got to get plugged in!

Answer

I so feel almost the same. We are due the same day! I feel that my boyfriend is my bestie right now and when my baby girl comes she will be my new best friend. I get sad all the time 😞 I feel so alone! Not a lot of ft family either and what family I do have really don't care that I'm pregnant. If you want to chat let me know and we can exchange info. :)
