New Mom Loss of Identity


Hello,My best friend recently gave birth to her kid, and she's been feeling as if she has a major loss of identity. Unfortunately for her, she's the only one in our circle with a kid too right now. I'm really worried for her mental health and between the limitations of the pandemic and being far away from her- how can I be supportive right now? What can I say to her/how can I support or assist. I guess for anyone who's been through this, what did you wish to hear/receive? Or what helped ease this transition? I don't want to talk at her. I want to hold space, ensure that she's heard and be there to validate/give feedback as much as I can. via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/3vqZfTN
