Hi Katie,
It’s so easy to feel isolated as a new mom. ESPECIALLY if you don’t know too many people in the same situation. I was going through the same thing as you but was lucky enough to find a new group of friends who were going through the exact same thing – my mom’s group. Hope some of my other posts where I blurt out all of my feelings also help you on this journey. Thanks for your honest comment and for reading 🙂

Thanks for your comment! I have to write one of those letters as well (when I find some time).

None of my friends have children, or are even married for that matter. I feel like most of the things I go through as a new mother I am facing alone. I never know if the feelings I have are normal. With a new baby in our home we have totally faced the issue of not really being present with one another, all of our energy is focused on our little one. Its getting easier day by day, but I know that feeling is far from over. You make me feel like I’m not the only one dealing with this. I feel like I’m actually not a bad spouse, I’m a normal one.
Thank you!!

I have felt the same way you describe. I like the idea of writing a letter to your child. I have two little munchkins. I think I’ll do that. It’s empowering.

I think babies take such a TOLL on their parents’ relationships! Some days I think about the future when we are sleeping through the night, making enough money to afford our day-to-day lives, not worrying about a certain sneaky child jamming an entire roll of toilet paper into the toilet, after pooing, and then calling us to have it removed (full disclosure: that is what just happened in my house but 5 minutes ago), etc etc, but won’t life be a bit boring then?? 🙂

Thanks for a great post!!
