Hi Preggies,
We are here to support each other first and foremost. Motherhood is hard, really hard, and having a baby is one of the most difficult times in your life. From our standpoint, the mom who posted about not wanting her child was being honest and was calling out for help. Most parents have probably felt this way at some point. If you see a post like this, reposting it and criticizing it is totally unacceptable.
All of us should be clear that if we read posts that are similar in nature to the one today, the mother may be in a dark place and is asking for help or just completely frustrated. We've all been there at some point, and we are here to help each other out of it. Do not judge her. If you are in a similar situation and feel that you can no longer deal with your child, you need to call a family member or friend for help, contact us or call 911 immediately. This is a serious issue, you do not want to put your child or yourself at risk.
Now that we've made it clear that this type of post is perfectly fine and is actually totally appropriate, please do not attack each other in the newsfeed. Do not judge others before you have the full picture. We are reviewing the newsfeed and any personal attacks will be removed.
Thank you for understanding.

I dealt with mild post partum psychosis after my first child. I hated her until she was almost 1 year old. But, because of my awesome support system, I never hurt her and grew to love her.
oh goodness. I remember that baby blues with my first. when my daughter had colic I told my mom I just wanted to give her up for adoption and couldn't handle her, I regret saying it but that's how I felt! I love my baby girl with all my heart and now I have 2! if any of you ladies ever need an ear-feel free to message me! I love helping. there has been so much we've all been through and being a mom is one of them. this is the BEST app I've ever had in my life. ♡
@preggie_usa, absolutely. its something ive been battling for 10 years. but was never "caught" or admitted by myself until 3 years ago. its never an easy thing to go through but after seeking help, a weight is lifted. I will always be a person for someone/anyone to talk to about it all. :)
I will be honest. I havent been on the app in a few days so I honestly have no idea what posts are being talked about but reading this post and the comments im gathering its about a mom feeling very depressed. I personally have gone through a major depression. its not something that is easily dealt with by the person nor persons around them. I will be on antidepressants for the rest of my life according to the drs due to my post partum depression during my second pregnancy. this pregnancy isnt as bad but I do have thoughts once in a while. I am dealing with them along with a counselor. if anyone that reads this is going through a depressive state of mind now, no matter how little you think it is, it is a serious matter and you need to seek help as soon as possible. its not something that you can just stop doing on your own. and ladies feel free to message me if you want about it :) there are 10000000% zero judgment coming from me :)
@ashley_abby20, woman. We would call 911 or hotline for a mom in need. 😊
Agreed depression can be very bad and i think every mommy has moment's of weakness.. i hope she's okay!
she should be suspended for bullying ! @adamsmaaa
@preggie_usa, can you tag her name here please I want to message her to see if she's ok . and give her some encouraging words....I feel so bad she was attacked like that .
@yummycake, 😍 same here! Going thru my divorce I was soooo alone but never felt it because this app has done wonders. I get the love n support I need. That's the 3rd time I saw a mean post from her 😰 can we plz ban every bully 😩
lol i had to open the mouth..because we r here to love and support each other. thats wats preggy is about. its a blessing. i had two babies without this little treasure. i value being up at night not alone because i have u guys . @adamsmaaa
@yummycake, speechless. Don't even reply to her dude. That was beyond me.
everyone just remember there is the #emotinalsupport group and I will NOT judge you will give you my best sorry and help you throygh anything I can! NO JUDGEMENTS! PRIVATE MESSAGE ANYTIME
I will message her and see if she is oh k . @preggie_usa
@laura_love, we've talked and she's still here.
I was contemplating on messaging both parties. To encourage, of course, but I'm assuming, since the 2nd post was unacceptable, that the user who post is no longer with us. Am I right or wrong?
U stole the words from my mouth! I really really want her to get help asap. Im scared for her and the baby ESP. I wish I can jump thru my phone screen but there so much we can say or do to help
@awelden, thanks. We should all message her to see if she's okay. Also thank you to all the moms who supported her.
really ??? @thumbalina ?....its obvious u dont know how aweful u can make someone feel by calling a woman who has gone through pregnacy or labor a baby. ? being young isnt a bad thing. its just diferent . age isnt a requirement for maturity. it be good to watch how we word stuff. since u are complaining bout drama in the app.
its so annoying I've been here since I was 5 weeks this app is filled with nothing but drama and babies having babies now.
👍 thank you for handling this. it was getting too upsetting on here.@preggie_usa,
🙏🙏praying for the mom that is going thru this tough time . Thank you @preggie_usa for always being on top of things . I love this app 💜💜💜💜
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

A Statement from Mom.Life:
Hey everyone!
Last night, a new user began messaging our moms asking for private pictures of toddlers and young children. This is obviously unacceptable behavior, and the account was banned immediately. Although thankfully extremely rare on Mom.Life, several users were understandably upset by this, so we wanted to clarify a few things:
First off, Mom.Life has an absolute zero tolerance policy for child abuse and those who would prey on children. We strive to ...
Plus, just because we CAN have a baby does not mean we CAN be a parent. It doesn't mean anything is wrong g with us or our child. But instead of demonizing someone for it, we should support them and help them overcome it or find a better place for their child.
