Not Coping

Not Coping

Hey everyone how are you all?

@RiverSeal @Shaz51 @NatureLover @tyme @Former-Member @Eve7 @Former-Member @amber22 @Jynx @FloatingFeather

I'm not doing great at all today. I'm feeling down. I also keep beating myself up for everything and feel like I'm just failing. I need a break from everything. It's getting so hard that I don't know how to keep going anymore especially since I can't talk to anyone around me as they are leaving me or don't understand.

Hope you don’t mind me reaching out I just really need a chat and though I could come on here and vent and talk for a bit.

Thank you

Re: Not Coping

you might find this gives you a smile, well I hope it does… @Birdofparadise8 our baby has recently started rolling, everywhere, she actually now will be somewhere completely different to where we put her down on the floor if we turn our back lol, I think I did not put you there… she’s on the move!!

Re: Not Coping

At what age do babies start crawling?

That's so cute. It did make me smile. @ArraDreaming

Re: Not Coping

That's good.

How is the food going?

Is it fun working out what ones she does and doesn't like? @ArraDreaming

Re: Not Coping

Oh okay as they say, it takes many tries to get them to like things @ArraDreaming

I know I'm not a parent, but it's just research I've done and what I've learnt in my uni classes from my parents and other people.

Re: Not Coping

Hmm I will have to read that later, our kids are everything as babies then went fussy but that’s pretty normal I think @Birdofparadise8 they are back to eating more things lately

Re: Not Coping

That's good to hear @ArraDreaming

What's their favourite food, all three of them?
