Feeling really low

Recently I've been beating myself up about everything. Lack of photos of me in them with my baby. Not having a decent career. I love my kids more then the world but I don't now why I feel sad. I'm upset my kids are growing up and starting to be independant. I miss the baby cuddles and bottle feeding and bathing a newborn. I'm not sure if it's the missing baby stage that makes me sad or that I have no photo evidence to look back on. I should be happy my kids are growing up happy and have there own personality but I soo miss the younger years.

Don't you have a mobile phone with a camera on it, OP? Everyone's always taking selfies with their friends, Family and dc. If you didn't take any when they were small, start now.

Maybe you're just a bit down? It could be the weather? Otherwise, see your GP and just make sure you're not depressed.

Take a look at your diet. Are you eating enough oily fish? leafy greens? Magnesium, zinc, b vitamins?
Often that 'low' feeling is diet related.
