Am i lazy?

My daughter (first and only child) is 8 months old, a relatively good sleeper but wants to be held or wants me with her at all times. I have two larger dogs and my house is in a bit of a state. I feel exhausted and know I need to clean but I can't be bothered. I do clean up after dinner, clean the bathrooms after using them but everywhere needs a deep clean. I feel like I don't have the energy. Am I a lazy bitch or is it normal to feel this bone deep tired even only with one child? I don't know how mothers of multiple children do it!

Boobs leaking

How do you guys deal with your boobs leaking at night? I find it hard to wear clothes to bed but then the sheets and mattress are getting soaked! Any ideas what can I do?

Opinions about c-section being sooner

I’ll admit this pregnancy has not been great. I’ve been so unwell the entire time and probably had a few weeks break in total of not feeling awful.

I’ve been diagnosed with costochondritis for my ribs which is extremely painful. Pain meds I’ve been given no longer help as they’re only supposed to help temporarily and I can only get relief if I’m admitted to the ward….

My 36 week appointment is coming up to schedule my c-section and I’m going to push for it to be the following week.
I’ve got a 20month old who doesn’t have a present mum atm from having every symptom like swelling, nausea, insomnia etc. This pain however is making me cry multiple times a day and I can barely breathe without the pain being so bad. Nothing can be done until my baby is born.

I am so grateful for my second baby however I’m just so over this pregnancy now and want treatment for this pain.

My question is, do you think they’d bring my c-section forwards if I advocate for it to happen after 37 weeks?

Has anybody else been in this situation

I’m 36 weeks, I have gestational diabetes (that I’m managing very well) and anemia, my baby is 8 pounds and 3 ounces, I asked my doctor if we could discuss an induction, I feel like I’m being forced and idk what to do

Fandom baby names

Anyone else find it cringey or hate it when people name their kids after something from a popular book, TV show or film?

Like when everyone was naming their kids from Game of Thrones or now I keep seeing ACOTAR names (love love love the ACOTAR books but no way was I going to name my child Rysand 🤪)
