Burned, drained even before mid-day
With my almost 3m old and my 2 yr old toddler...especially the toddler...I often feel Sooooo drained. Especially when i have to get them both and myself ready for an outting. And this is with great support at home from my older kids and husband. Even with such support, the role of mom doesn't change, so primarily things fall on me, especially when my husband works double shifts and the older kids are doing their chores or out with their peers. I just finished braiding my toddler's hair (the fight), bathing, and readying her for a party with dad- who just got home from work. This is after chasing her all day while ensuring my newborn is also good. I literally haven't showered, yet. They just headed out the door, and the newborns turn is up ( my niece had been keeping her entertained while I took care of her sister- niece was fighting for her life 😩😂). Now, I feel so drained, i could barely kiss my husband hi or bye, and feel like I'm one baby cry away from breaking down myself. Stay-at-home moms, how ya'll doing this???? Are you all crying at the end of each day, or am i just broken😩😩😩

@Courtney ahhh. I believe you. Thank you mama
It is exhausting! I have a 2 month old and a 2 year old. Definitely the toddler is the hardest lol I’d say it’s normal to cry every now and then like I potty trained my toddler this past weekend and I did cry out of exhaustion. But if you cry every night, I’d seek help, maybe a therapist. I hope you’re feeling better soon 💜
I definitely have days like this more often then not I also have two little ones close in age a 6 month old and a 2yr old. Your not broken this is sooo hard but as the days track in you’ll find things that make your day easier and theirs. Your not alone ❤️
