New mom , new dad

Hi everyone . I would love everyone’s insight. I am a new mom, I have no one to help me which I know is okay because it is my job to care for our new child however it does get tough. I have not gone out in over a year however my partner goes out every weekend. I allow it because he goes to work so I know he needs time to unwind but I feel like when I want to have fun I drink and it’s not good because we have our child. I will put my son to sleep and then have some drinks and then I end up overly intoxicated. My partner comes home and he is soooo mad. I feel like I keep doing the same thing and he is so tired of it. I’m just hurting. I don’t know how to fix it, I have tried everything.

Keep learning and keep comming back

Imagine it not sticking until it is too late

I work full time and dont drink. 479 days today. I dont know what your partner does for work.

New child is both tough for mom and dad
Both need to contribute

Heyy sorry to bother you

Goodmorning :slight_smile:

I wanted to say that i am proud of you. Im proud of you for reaching out when needed

If your proud of yourself, thats more important then what i think

I am proud of you
The question is… are you proud of you?
You dong need to answer if you dont want to
But if you are not… maybe try some sole searching and tryvto figure out what is important to you
