Feeling so down

I've really had enough

My 7 month old hasn't been sleeping well since 5m. Its one thing after the other, regression, teething, illness. I keep getting ill because I am so exhausted and then I end up giving it to her.
I feel like I am a shit mum to my almost 5yr old. All I seem to do is get annoyed with him. I can feel him sometimes treading on eggshells around me and it makes me so sad but I can't seem to change it.
My husband works so much that I hardly see him. The house is an absolute mess, every single room us awful and I just feel like I'm drowning! I can't give baby to anyone because she's EBF and won't take a bottle. I just don't know what to do.
Some days I feel like running away 😞

Could you have some time for yourself whilst someone has the baby in the same environment? E.g. go out to a shopping centre? At home but different parts of the house? That was your close by if she needs feeding but you’re not the primary care giver at that time?
