I agree. My husband helps once he gets home from work but I do miss being a pampered princess when I'm sick lol.

Saaaame. It’s so hard taking care of them when you feel like death.

Finding the energy to do stuff with the kids when I feel like I should have all the energy. Now we did just find out I’m pregnant so that’s taking a massive toll on my energy levels.

Honestly everything else around the house besides taking care of my babies. It’s not that I can’t do it, just gets to be so much sometimes. I’d rather give my full attention to my babies instead of constantly mentally making a list of the stuff the needs to be cleaned around the house, the shopping trip I seem to always have to make, scheduling appointments and not somehow overlapping them (terrible habit of that), taking care of the pets, making the food. I’d much rather just hang out with my babies. My fiancé works all the time so sometimes it’s just TOO MUCH

Definitely getting sick. Still recovering from bronchitis, both me and my son. I'd fall asleep watching him play by himself and I don't fall asleep easily. Maybe not getting breaks too

My biggest struggle so far is feeling like I’m not doing enough. We are financially struggling because I’m home but I know it will just be worse if he goes to daycare. It’s a lose lose

I’d say managing everything with her and with the house - keeping up with all the housework like I used to with a toddler around but definitely agree with feeling sick with a child because it is the ultimate worst.
