All the baby stuff and taking care of the kids while dh is at work until Midnight... its wearing on me! I made my dinner tonight and Xander started fussing. I fixed a plate (chicken parm) and went to sit down while holding him and it was just too hard to eat. So I asked my oldest to just put my dinner in the fridge so that I could eat it after I was done with the baby. That was at 6pm! The baby was super gassy today and a little fussy. He pooped the biggest poop ever... went through to his clothes and when I was taking off his tshirt, I got it in his hair so he needed a bath.
By the time I finished with the baby, got the older kids to bed and fed the baby again.... it was after 10pm. I was just thinking that I was hungry and went into the kitchen to find something quick to fix. I made some rice.... when I put the left over in the fridge, I saw my first dinner that I never got to eat.
BOOOOOO...... my brain is fried!
Re: ok, its getting to me...
I have a hard time trying to keep the house somewhat clean. I have clean laundry separated into piles on the living room floor (mine, kids, kitchen, linens) and the food... I don't even cook when DH is home. He knows for a while, this is how it's going to be. Until I start getting more sleep and getting more energy, he's the one who needs to make food.
You're lucky you remembered to eat. Yesterday I didn't get lunch, and the day before I forgot to eat dinner. DH made food I couldn't eat anyway, but I was nursing the baby and then she was fussy and I couldn't put her down, and then I just forgot. I didn't realize til 2am that I didn't get dinner. Yesterday I was lucky it was lunch I skipped, because when I met up with a friend for sushi I got my fill of awesome food.
