I really need to get out more, trouble is I feel really confident with my LO till I'm around strangers. I look alot younger than I am and feel like I'm constantly being judged (and not in a good way).
I spend my days at home with LO, I live in a first floor flat and find it a nightmare getting myself and LO out. We have a big cupboard downstairs which we cleaned out and keep the pram in, but then if I want to go out in the car what am I meant to do?! Get myself and LO down the steep stairs in his heavy carseat, somehow get the pram from the cupboard to the car along with LO and his things.
My back feels like it's breaking
We currently live in council housing on the same street as MIL, around the corner from GIL across the street from his Auntie's. I tell OH I want to apply for a house but he says we don't have a leg to stand on and they won't rehouse us.
I love our flat it's beautifully decorated, our rooms are lovely sizes (though we have no storage cupboards at all really). I feel like he doesn't appreciate how difficult it is for me. He tells me to call his mum to help me but I don't want her to see LO everyday because she helped us out alot in the start and was here everyday and starting to drive me crazy. I can't buy anything when I go out because I can't carry it, and OH works full time so we have to get everything when he's off.
I keep telling him it's only going to get harder because LO is only going to get heavier for me but we always end up arguing over the matter.
I had alot of back problems during pregnancy and they've escalated since having Brody. I'm going crazy staying in these four walls but I'm avoiding going out because it's just so difficult. I feel like I've never really had a chance to build my confidence with LO because of all of this too.
Sorry for such a rant but I needed to vent without causing another argument with OH! lol x
