I regret becoming a mom...

Before i got pregnant i had time to sleep and be lazy, thats what i miss the most. Now im always on edge. My mental health is declining and im on meds. Meds that make me feel drowsy but i cant sleep because i have a kid to take care of. I loved being in the gym. But im so tired and now i have flat feet i cant even walk a mile and do abs after. Im declining so bad.

Whats even worse is my mental health meds made me gain 100 something pounds. I look and feel terrible.
I dont regret my son 1 bit but motherhood isnt for me. And im trying to be strong. Idk how the hell other women had 3.. this shit is impossible to do

Motherhood isn't for everyone. I'm sorry you didn't realize until you had your son.

@LordBarbossa i was sure i was ready to be a mom. Even a better mom than my mom

@Cute987 it sounds like you love your son, so I have no doubt you're doing the best you can. But it also sounds like you weren't fully prepared to make him your no1 priority and everything that comes with having a child.

Not judging, just speaking my mind here. Maybe get a baby sitter once a week to have a night to yourself and whatever you need to feel like an individual?
