Hey there,

Thank you for sharing how you're feeling with us. I think it's really common for parents, especially new ones, to feel like they aren't good enough. This feeling can become stronger if they also have other things going on, like mental health issues, as you said. If you like, we can talk about this in our private message? Let me know what works best for you. Speak soon.

I thought about me being a mum to Layla. I am doing my best and I don't think I am a bad mum. Glad I am being strong!

Hey there,

I'm glad to hear that you are doing your best for her 🙂

It sounds like you have a lot of support from your parents as well which I'm sure helps too. What helped you to shift from the negative mindset to positive? I'm glad you were able to see it differently.

No your not. You shown strength by being here and keeping her warm, fed and safe. Not many people could do that at your age! Be proud your doing so well for someone your age!
