Our babies are similar ages, mine was born on lockdown day. Well done Iām not sure how Iād have navigated being a first time mum in these times. That being said being a 3rd time mum with two kids suddenly off school and a newborn was not easy either! I got pnd the first two times but this time I havenāt and Iām proud of myself for how well Iāve coped, not that I could have helped pnd. I actually feel like lockdown helped me out there. All the reasons my pnd existed before kind of disappeared in lockdown. I become time obsessed, but time literally did not exist in lockdown. I hate judgemental comments from in laws, but they couldnāt visit so I was left to raise my child as I wished in peace. Iāve always really struggled with b/f Iāve tried really hard each time, but this time I managed to pump for 6 months which Iām so proud of. There was no school run or visits or baby classes I had to schedule pumping around I could just do it whenever I needed to. So whilst itās not something I would like to do again I am proud of myself for getting through (so far).Apologies if a thread like this has already been made
This year has been miserable! I guess some good as well though? I was just thinking of what I've done this year that I'm actually proud of.
I've given birth to my first child, totally surprised myself with how well I've done. It was a bit of a rocky start due to giving birth right before lockdown and my boyfriend working alot. I didnt see any family and was on my own a lot. I really struggled but feel like I've come out on the other side and I'm really enjoying Motherhood.
I also learnt to cook! My boyfriend owns a pub and is a chef there part time when he's not being manager. He always did the cooking. He used to laugh at me and say all I could make was toast. I was determined when I found out I was pregnant that I'd learn how to cook. Low and behold - i did! My fella never makes tea anymore, only because I enjoy it and I want to do it.
I was just starting tonights tea and was feeling pleased with myself and proud of them two things
I love hearing good and happy things and wanted to know what others are proud of themselves for after this year? Or what is making them happy
Thank you! Having a baby during lockdown was hard. I was lucky I was just before and was able to have my partner with me. We were able to see a few family members before actually lockdown happened but it was still hard because I didnt have like my Mum or MIL visiting to fuss over him and give me a break. We didn't see a HV or a midwife. I got a womb infection and just got fobbed off so spent a lot of the newborn phase ill. Everyone who has had a baby through lockdown deserves a pat on the back and more!!!Our babies are similar ages, mine was born on lockdown day.
