Is it bad I need a break often?

I’m a stay at home mom to a 2 year old and I’ve realized I want a day off every week. My daughter will sleep at my in laws for one night and then next week at my grandparents, I don’t always get this break but I notice when I do get it I feel so much better and can get through the week, but is this bad? I also cook 5 days a week and clean and do all that. So I’m not sure if this is bad

thank you for this love! ❤️

Not at all! It’s so helpful to have people who can give you time to yourself. It doesn’t make you a bad mom for needing time to rest and recharge. I have a 2 year old and a 4 month old. My 2 year old stays at her grandparents at least 1 day a week and sometimes 2 depending on the week.

Go for it mama! It's nice you have that village. I would totally do this if my parents lived closer! 😆

Most people get two days off of work each week and they only work 8-5. So yeah, once a week is reasonable.

Absolutely necessary! Put on your mask first, right. Fill your cup to overflowing you can fill theirs.

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Baby names

My daughter‘s name is valentýna and I’m struggling to find other nice girl and boy names beginning with V I’ve got a few and I’ve got loads that aren’t beginning with V, but I feel like I wanna go for all vs and I also love girl and boys names that match so because my daughter’s name is valentýna I would love to call my son Valentino my husband does not agree 😃

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!
