Toddler mums - how are we coping?

I’m 15 weeks and I’m struggling. I have a 16 month old who is slightly feral and I’m having a hard time keeping up. He’s also decided that 5am is the perfect new wake up time and I’m so exhausted. Please tell me I’m not alone 😭

I’ve also been up since 5am with my 18 month old 🫠

My almost 3 year old is pretty hard work, he's up at 6am which is tough with still having zero energy, he's also very energetic and demands a lot. I think we can only do what we can do, I'm still hopeful my energy will return soon but at this point I'm just so fed up of having none 😭

I have an almost 2 year old who's sleep has never been great. It's tough! I can't even remember what it feels like to not be tired 😂🙈

I have a 1&2 year old, my 1 year old is super super clingy and attached to me at the moment ( has been for 5 months) They use to give me a lay in now 6am wake time 😢

It's really hard. I'm finding it hurts when I pick them up too. It's really pulling on my belly muscles. X

Yeah 5.30am we've been up

Now it's bedtime 🌙

@Emily yeah I'm the same too, I've been trying to set expectations now of not carrying him but he still wants carrying so much and at almost 3 he definitely doesn't need it 🤦🏼‍♀️

@Shell yeah it's really hard because you don't want to not give him pick up cuddles, and when he is having a melt down it's even worse 😫 send help lol x

@Emily I know! Send lots of help 😭

Yeppp exactly the same!! Xx
