I love my daughter , she’s the light of my life
But I also miss my freedom, liberty of going anywhere whenever I wish to.
Welcome to parenthood. It only lasts for the rest of your life.
I suggest you follow the time-honoured practice of all the parents who came before you and never, ever mention what you're feeling now to any young, childless person. It is indeed true that misery enjoys company.
Seriously, though, becoming a parent does require a major shift in priorities and perspectives. The first few years can be very demanding, boring and tiring, but putting in the effort to form a good relationship with your daughter in the first years of her life will pay off in the long-run. If she feels loved, respected and secure, she's more likely to be more independent sooner, and you'll start to get some of your life back under your control.
I figure it's normal, as I would feel the same way. That's one of the strongest reasons why I've never wanted to have children.
Why not just bring the cub with you to places?
When I have my nephew with me I just bring the little dude where ever I go
You still have the option of dropping the baby off at a fire station, no questions asked.
It depends on why you had the baby, and what kind of support you have. I know some women who have felt this way.
It also helps to remember that they are little for such a brief moment in time. You'll get your independence back gradually.
I feel like people still leave their unwanted babies at a strangers front porch. So theres something you could do.
