Thinking about the future…

Hi Mommies. I just want to share what’s been bothering me for weeks now.. Idk if signs of PPD but I feel overwhelmed minsan 😭 Si hubby kasi has an offer to work in the US and bring us with him.. it was opened up last 2020 pa when we got married pero due to pandemic, nadelay nang nadelay. Last year he was supposed to fly kaso mga 3mos after pa kami makakasunod kaya ayaw nya talaga kasi kakapanganak ko lang and he wants to witness every single moment ni baby. In short, di natuloy. US is not actually in our hearts and minds kasi okay na rin kami rito. We have our own house and car. Pero idk why lately, parang nasa puso ko na to try living there.. it’s as if I want to escape, I want to breathe, I want a different environment. Apart from the opportunities it could give our child(ren). Kaso hubby is decided na that we stay here. Kasi nga stable naman kami rito. I fully understand him and trust his decision pero bakit may kirot sa heart ko 😭

Ay bes, what you're feeling is so valid, that overwhelm mixed with wanting something different is real, and it doesn't mean you're ungrateful for what you have here A few of us moms went through something similar, and honestly, sometimes it's not really about the US or wherever, it's more about needing space to breathe and reset when everything feels heavy, especially in those postpartum months. But since you've been feeling this way for weeks and it's weighing on your heart, I think it's worth talking to someone like a doctor or counselor about how you're really feeling overall, the overwhelm, the kirot, lahat, kasi sometimes PPD or postpartum anxiety can make us feel like we need to escape when what we really need is support. Have you talked to your hubby about needing more YOU time or a change of scenery locally muna, instead of the big move conversation?
