Facebook motherhood post

ok so who else's feed is getting clogged with this motherhood post. This post irritates me in so many ways. Maybe I'm just upset cause I can't post any pictures of me with my kids cause I don't have any. Does anyone else get upset by this?

Do you mean the posts like ` You know when you are a mother..` `life with kids ..` posts? I am so so fed up with those, I hope I wont be such a person if I get pregnant one day but I think it is ridiculous. Women have been giving birth tens of thousands of years, but now motherhood got a different meaning with social media. I immediately unfollow those friends

It feels better that way. I think I can tolerate personal posts, pictures of babies etc. better but not these shared posts about how you are a completely new specie when you give birth.

***trigger warning***

I have a fb friend who just gave birth a few days ago and she posted one of them. The 4 picture one, right? I had to hide it because I have no interest in seeing her and her baby. Ugh!

I didn't know what you talked about and now they are popping up everywhere on my timeline. And I don't even know them. My friends like those pictures of others, so can't really unfriend everybody.
Its tough, social media makes everything tough as people only post good things.
Everybody is happy, everybody is in love, everybody has tidy houses, everybody has a happy family, ...
Well I've met my friends on Facebook, they are not all happy, they are not all in love, they have definitely no tidy houses and boy do some of them have a horrible family!
So I scroll by or hide those newsfeed, and think that one day I probably get blocked by most people as I will fill Facebook with a chubby, but happy little baby that I worked (and paid) well them hard for!

That's an excellent point @tvh1982 ! I read some article a long time ago about how Facebook contributes a lot to making people depressed because all people see is people showing the positive aspects of their life . We end up comparing ourselves to others so much and we only see the good . I may be taking a Facebook break soon because it is getting hard to handle seeing babies babies and pregnant bellies every day . In order to get to a positive place I just want to disconnect from it all and focus on my real life .

I was actually thinking of doing that too @mskeenan as none of them posts add anything extra to my life besides frustration or sadness.
