I can't stand bedtime anymore. I'm losing my shit

IT'S ONE FKING THING AFTER ANOTHER AND I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE

I slammed the door shut today and I said "NO MORE STUFF" because I couldn't take it anymore. My 3.5yo kept pushing and pushing for one more toy and to do this and do that and I literally fucking lost my cool

That is all

It's completely normal to feel this way..i gone through same phase when my boy was 3 and half year old..use to sleep at 10pm or even 11 some days and wake up early.

I had no me time and I myself lost my cool hand full of times..

It's true that they just don't wanna shut down cause everyday something new hits them..and they don't wanna shut down and miss anything..

Don't wanna advice on routines or anything. Cause I am 100% sure you are already doing your best

We are humans and it's normal to loose cool. Doesn't mean we don't live them. The fact that you kept your cool for long time says how much you care..
How much you love

Take a deep breath and stay in the room mamma.. It's gonna pass. My son now almost 4 sleeps in 15 min.. It took us months but finally the day is here.

It's gonna come to you as well:)
XOXO

I’ve adopted lying with them when they do too much. And then leave soon as they close to knocked out. Sometimes that works.

I saw this reel once 'my kids before bedtime' and it was Kanye West talking random left field ramble😂 very relatable. As I tucked my young kids in they'd ask me 3 questions that need 10 minute answers that I would have been happy to answer if they were asked 4 hours earlier.
It gets easier as they get older , now it's usually one question hahaha HUGS🫂

Lady bits

So I have a little girl my first born was a little boy. I’ve noticed when I clean her she still has a lot of the white stuff from when she was born in her bits. Is this normal?

How to stop contact naps

My 4 month old will only contact nap.
She sleeps in her next to me at night with a love to dream swaddle but during the day will only contact nap, she won't nap if we're out and not often sleeps in her pram.
I always tried to put her down but since 6 weeks old, everytime I put her down she would wake up and not go back to sleep.

How has everyone else done it because I would like to get stuff done now while shes asleep.
She's a velcro baby during the day anyway so I dont get time for anything till my husband comes home.

What happens if I don't BF for a day?

I have my friends wedding coming up but I can't take my 3mo along. I'm currently trying to build a freezer stash to feed him but not having much luck (getting 30ml a day if I'm lucky). My exclusively BF baby will spend the day with my mother in law being bottle fed (at this rate it will probably be formula) but I'm wondering, if I pump a couple of times throughout the day, will that be ok? I don't want to impact my BF supply but it'll be a busy day and I can't imagine spending hours in the loo pumping.
