I am so sick and tired of being tired.
I'm sick of the sleepless nights.
I'm sick of spending several hours every single night, awake. I'm sick of sitting and crying through sheer exhaustion. Crying because here I go again, and there's nothing I can do about it.
I'm tired of there never being an end in sight.
I'm done waking up every morning feeling exhausted and pissed off because of it.

Have a chat with health visitor, on my questions I got in the post to do before the review it says about sleep and they can help you with it, have you tried feeding baby some warm porridge before bed so they are fuller for longer and go to sleep? Tbh mine ends up in bed with me during the night because I just want sleep and I get a lay in that way 🤦♀️💜 your not alone! It’s 3am and I’m wide awake with work soon too 💜

I know how you feel, but from experience with an 8 and 11 year old I can tell you it will get better.

I do all I can every day. I eat healthy, I work out, I go to the gym, I walk. I do all this to make sure I am the best I can be for my children.
My two other children are 7 & 8.. I know all this will pass but I'm struggling so bad.
Can I ask what sleep training you did please? @Marie

I know a nanny means money, but if you can afford someone to takeover the children every day for a few hours, don’t think twice about it.
I was holding onto it for a long time, and it was a life changing choice for my mental sanity.
