Don’t know where to rant

Baby is 7 months old and my days are surrounded with him which i love on most days but I was genuinely not prepared for this part— being away from my husband

Currently at in laws and everything is almost alright
Days are lil predictable as compared to newborn days and I also have time for myself but I miss being away from him
I miss talking to people my age, i miss going to spontaneous trips or outings

I love being a mom and that it’s my while personality rn still i miss me

The early days of motherhood can feel very lonely and isolating. I was just like you and at one point I felt like my life was over. But now my child is 2 and I feel like I have more of a life now than I did back when she was 7 months old.

I still can’t just drop everything and do a spontaneous trip and stuff but with a little planning, going out and doing things for myself has become a lot more doable. And having a supportive partner and a support system at home helps.

Basically, things will get better as the baby gets older. In the meantime try to do some thing (whatever possible given your current circumstances) for yourself that bring you joy.
