Sometimes I fell like I do everything wrong, the days are filled with cries and tantrums and I don’t feel I’m reacting the way I should.
My son is 17months old and still waking up at night sometimes up to 3-4 times so it makes the day hard as well.
And sometimes I just loose it and scream after my baby while I regret it instantly but I’m just overwhelmed.
I always wanted two kid but now I feel like I’m not good enough for one so another one is a bad idea..

I’ve always wanted 2/3 kids but my daughter made me change idea 😅 she’s 2.5yo and just started sleeping through the night (not every night tho) but she wakes up at 5:30am 🙄 she’s always been very demanding, high contact baby, she wasn’t able to stay asleep even for 5 minutes unless I was with her until she was 2y3mo and if I had another child like her I wouldn’t be able to cope, we have no help at all so we never have time to rest or even to enjoy ourselves as a couple (we have an hour at best in the evening while she’s asleep, after that we’re too tired as she wakes up at 5:30am). Never had a date or anything since she’s born as she’s too young to be left with a babysitter in our opinion.
Sometimes I loose it too and scream after her (especially around my ovulation 🙄), I just tell her I’m sorry, I shouldn’t yell, so I feel you.
If you’re still young you can still wait until your baby is older and you can still change your mind if/when you’re ready; I’m already 37yo and I don’t want ⬇️

⬇️ a baby at 40+yo so we’ve decided we’re one and done 🩷
Thank you! I’m trying to don’t go there unless he’s crying hard and sometimes he just fall asleep again.
Yes I guess a good night of sleep would help
Im 29 so i would have love to have another one but if it doesn’t get better I think we will just have one like you ☺️
Yes I’ll definitely wait

Oh no it’s get better! I’m still complaining but it’s way better than a year ago! I’m sure it will get even better, still difficult but I think the first 1/2 years are the worst 😂
