Maternity leave: did it go the way I thought? 🤔 When I made a video about my plans for maternity leave, one of you suggested I do this video afterwards to compare the expectations and reality, and here we are, 3 months later! What did past Hannah think the last 3 months would be like and was she right??

As one person that did not interact with friends after they had a baby: I honestly did not know how to reach out and thought that I might intrude in their family time so I ended up doing nothing. Was interesting to hear that it felt weird for you! I mean I’m autistic so I’m easier overwhelmed with things like this but I can imagine that the people who say nothing mean well bc they don’t want to intrude

I imagine it's also partly how you feel about babies. I'm happy for my friends and coworkers with babies but I don't want to add to their stress by being the awkward friend who doesn't really like children of any age. I don't want to make people feel put out by me so I just wish them a more quiet congratulations and let them hang out with people who will be more helpful and comfortable.

This was so fascinating to me, I felt like not reaching out when friends had had a new baby was the right thing to do, I think I read that new mums are so stressed they don’t want visits and to entertain people. So I thought I was lightening the load for them, will definitely consider Hannah’s point when other friends have children

I am a friend who goes quiet when my friends have babies. I'm happy to do all the singing and dancing when baby is born and celebrate and meet new baby but if you are a person who does not have children, whether by choice or not, your friendship will change. As a childless friend you often end up doing a lot of the heavy lifting of the friendship, and moving things around to accommodate the new parent, plus the child will always be there and tends to dominate conversation. I find it easier to take a little step back from these friendships while we have less in common - we all only have so much we can give with little in return for such extended periods of time. My birthdays have faded into non-existence and my news has little reception despite making sure those friends know they're cared about and loved on their birthdays and on other days, remembering their children's birthdays, asking about milestones, remembering everything that's gone on for them. As a childless friend we often feel abandoned by new parent friends - I don't blame the parent friends at all as their lives have changed, but in order to keep myself mentally well sometimes I need to take a step back. However - this is just my personal experience and I realise it doesn't apply to all new parents! (of course I don't apply my 'method' to all friends who have babies - this is just how it's gone for me in recent times where my friends have all been having children)

Just a note/comment. Those friends that didn't seem interested/weren't beating down your door to meet baby. Maybe that's the case but please do bear in mind that some people just aren't able to handle it if they are struggling trying to conceive, experiencing infertility or miscarriage. Just a thought. Mid IVF and am dreading meeting new baby in lots of ways because it's honestly like a guy punch everytime I think about it.

I was due to go back to work at 1 year pp but got pregnant before that so decided to just stay home and not risk the extra illnesses of working and childcare. I am the same. Some days I go to the supermarket just to get out of the house and break up the day. It's definitely nothing to feel bad about, being a SAHM can be really difficult on mental health when you don't get to speak to other adults much

I’m sometimes that friend that doesn’t ask much about the baby. For me it comes from some of my own sadness about not having a baby yet. That might sound selfish, but it’s no more so than the person with a baby wanting people to be more interested. Initially I found some of your and another KZfaqr I watch pregnancy content hard, but now I’m invested because of the approach you take.

For anyone interested, the reason a nursery generally won't accept a child under 2 for less than a full day is because usually a child will find it significantly harder to settle in if their whole day routine doesn't change. Childminders have a more homely setup which is why it's different

I found it extremely disappointing when some of my closest friends, and even family and inlaws, didn't check in with us in the first few months... I felt like I had gone through something horrendous (birth injury, then PPD), and they didn't show any interest/care whatsoever. It's damaged my relationships with them, and I don't even know how to bring it up with them as it was a year ago now. The upside of all this is that it pushed me to join a mother's group and I'm SO glad I did - glad you found your kin that way too! ❤

I think it would be a good idea to bring it up with them, because as a lot of people are saying in the comments it can feel like an intrusion to contact a new mom who is probably quite overwhelmed with the baby. I would definitely feel like that if a friend of mine had a baby. So maybe it is all a huge misunderstanding.

I'm defo the radio silence type of friend. It's not that I'm not interested, it's more that I feel like a bother? Like, I know and assume that my friends with babies has stuff to do non stop and when they finally have a moment to breathe, they often want to just be with their partner or family or simply enjoy the moment. Even tho I'm a close friend, I don't want to add to them feeling overwhelmed by all who wants to fit in their schedule. We still meet up quite regularly, like at church or when we friends meet up for a cup of coffee. Getting more time than that feels just selfish of me? At the same time, like when my friend where on maternity leave, home alone, I'd reach out, bc I feel like that easily can get lonely and I'm one of few who have free time during the day. But now, when both parents are back to work, their toddler is just starting daycare and their second is here soon, I choose to not "bother them".

I actually got back in touch with a school friend during lockdown as another school friend was doing riddles on Facebook just to pass the time and have some social interaction that wasn’t her other half or her cat. When me and my friend could meet up she was pregnant, and she loved having company even if it was a quick coffee date at her house. Then when we met up lately (ugh life, work, covid) her son was 8 months old and we went on a bit of a day trip. And I’m always happy to invite her to another baby friendly outing for company/her sanity

Relating to the stuff around the 3 minute mark about people not reaching out to you - I would really recommend watching a video Footless Jo made a few months back titled something like "The day I lost my leg my friend ghosted me" (the title is self-aware clickbaity). It's really good and helped me understand why some people do that and that it isn't always something they realise is happening. Might not be perfectly applicable to your current situations but from what you mentioned it might be helpful to watch

I totally get the partner resentment about working/ them not taking charge when they are technically available to help in the morning. I honestly have no solution, as I feel like most of the time I just silently seethed about it - but the older my daughter has got, the better the balance has been struck between us. Also, I never wait for him to take initiative anymore, I simply say ''would you rather do X or Y'' and that's helped communication. Also, I totally understand the friends aspect, I've lost touch with people I considered extremely close friends, but hoping that it picks up again down the line or maybe when they also have kids!

With respect to PIV … it took me almost 9 months to enjoy sex after my first. I had a minor tare, but still, it felt like it was uncomfortable FOREVER. After a few months I chatted with my midwife & some friends (some in the same boat and some on the other side who all felt like it took 6-12 months) and made a plan to make it easier, but it took a while for it to feel better. For my second, I did a lot of pelvic floor pt before baby came to prepare for after & it helped a lot (way more than PFPT after birth helped).

I had my baby in 2015 and remember being so active for the first few months and how SHOCKED everyone was that I was out and about. Once we got into toddler years is actually when I feel it got SO HARD to leave the house and be active with a kiddo. I think about this a lot that the first year is the most sleep deprivation but years 2-5 are REALLY hard to do things with the kiddo coming along. I also used to be an early show up to everything person and then year 2 came along and I had to add so much time in getting ready I was not prepared for to be even remotely on time. I love revisiting these early years through you lately!!

My anxiety gets super high when I'm late, but even if I start earlier and earlier, I'm still late. I'm trying to be more forgiving with myself, but it is difficult. I feel like pre-kid me and me with a kiddo, are two completely different people, but somehow the new version doesn't know it and is convinced they are the pre-kid version.

And it's been interesting because I'm in a group chat with them so I'm getting constant baby/now toddler info during the day. Although it turns out that I have a similar nap schedule as the little ones, so scheduling our get togethers is pretty easy.

I'm curious: Now that you're several months in to being a parent, was there anything you were looking forward to that has turned out to be kind of of underwhelming/not your jam? And vice versa: Were there things that you were nervous about that have turned out to be not so bad/better than you expected, kind of like what you were saying here about about being Parent Prime for much of the day?

Maybe a stupid question - but why couldn't Dan wake up on some days when Rowan woke up early? We always took turns regardless who was working. we took shared parental leave so I have been both the stay at home partner and the working partner and I have experienced the different challenges that brings, but what has really helped us was to set the rule that the parent on parental leave is 'on parenting duty' for exactly as long as the working parent is 'on work duty', so when the working parent was working for 8 hours plus commute, the other parent was ' solo parenting' for that time, but the rest of the time we shared the parenting duties

I forget how much I missed out on when I had my daughter in April 2020. No anti-natal classes as they were all cancelled due to lockdown so didn’t have a chance to make any friends. Felt like I was just handed a baby with a “good luck” 😅. And also couldn’t go out anywhere or see anyone for the first few months so it was super isolating as I was inside on my own with a newborn for most of 3 months. Hopefully if/when I have another things will be different.

Are you still willing to have another baby in a few time, after all you've passed through during this pregnancy? 😅

Yes, esp night feeds and especially doing night feeds in your bed.

Do you wish you'd taken a long break like this earlier in your KZfaq career, without the whole having a baby part? I know before you've spoken about the fear of taking a break and falling off the algorithm, but it sounds like things have actually gone really well?

Tbh I think one of the things that meant it’s gone well in a KZfaq sense is because of the baby, viewers are very interested in the “return”. The same can’t be said if I just randomly took 3 months off before. Who knows!

No worries, you and your hubby are just getting started. The Lord has a plan for you bigger than you know. Share the work load with your hubby, don't try being the only caregiver
