So I posted on Nextdoor about needed to find a babysitter. Just to have in our back pocket ya know? Well this 17 year old girl responded and when we spoke she informed me that she doesn’t drive and she has mental health issues. She said and I quote “I have some mental health issues, such as depression and anxiety, but I’d never hurt kids. Even if they were being rough I would ever hurt them” I got such a weird ass vibe from her. Like who says that? I’m totally ok with mental health issues, don’t we all have them, aren’t we all sometimes depressed or anxious? But to say u would never hurt children rubbed me the wrong way. What do ladies think about that?
Her helmet she got so she can be safe (as she told me) when she rides her bike and scooter lol
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 and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?
FURIOUS! So I used to work with this girl who is very opinionated. She is extremely religious, and judgmental. (I am not putting all religious people into a category. Most are very nice) she just happens to be one of the unpleasant ones. Well anyway when I found out I was pregnant with Dd she came up to me almost in tears and said to me, "I am so sorry this must be so stressful." I was like oh thank you. Yes its scary but well figure it out and smiled. Then she said , "no I mean not being married, how will you look at that child knowing she was a mistake?" I was shocked. I replied, "excuse me she may have been a surprise but she is not a mistake." Well now that I'm pregnant again another happy surprise lol. I guess she follows me on insta. She said "I'll pray for you, and those poor children." Like really can someone be so rude. She also told me that when she has kids they will be planned. And she would never be so irresponsible to have an unplanned pregnancy.
My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤

I had the same issue. I have PTSD and anxiety from my first born. I didn't know at the time but with my 2nd born I explained to the health visitor I think I had post natal depression and suffered very low mood, so she was like oh ok we can visit you a few extra times to see how you're getting on. No one bothered. Eventually after a very long time I went to the GP who referred me to psychology and after several sessions they felt I had PTSD and anxiety.

They did this after I had Theo. I told her I was feeling really low, I explained my symptoms, how possessive I was over him, how I was having extremely intrusive thoughts, everything. She ignored it, made a note in her diary and didn't see my again until he was almost two. I went through 22 months of hell, I wasn't brave enough to contact the doctor myself. Eventually Przemek made me go because it was awful for everyone, turned out I had PND and post natal anxiety.
My health visitor with Aniela has been really good, I think it's just luck of the draw on whether you get a good one or a rubbish one 😩
I would definitely get in touch with your doctor, or even another health visitor and explain what's gone on and how you're feeling. I hope you get the help you need x
