I'm just so tired...

in January 2011 Moms

Sometimes I just feel like I am swimming upstream.  I never have a clean house.  I never get to sleep through the night.  I can't put a diaper on any clothing on DD without her flipping the eff out the entire time.  I can't get her to take naps when I want her to(she always wants to take a late nap and stay up late). 

I just need a break! 

My mom gave me the fantastic advice of I should just get her to take an earlier nap...seriously mom!  OMG thanks bc I couldn't effing figure that out!

    Sometimes Cooper has bad days and I have a mental break down.  I usually just count on H to help me out and I relax with a nice bath.  You are not alone mama..i'm sure we all have these days! I hope things get better!  ??

    Can you go out for an evening? Even to a cafe or something, and read a book. Just to decompress. I know that doesnt help in the long run, but maybe you need a breather.

    I know exactly how you feel, I wish I had the magic answer.  Hang in there.

    Awww..I could have written your post word for word. same here..but alas this is # 2 and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.  forget about your house..just enjoy the baby (easier said than done though for sure).  I go crazy sometimes but at the end of the day I just have to tell myself it's just a phase and their will be plenty of time for cleaning later!!

     Is there any way you could get someone in to clean your house like once a month or so?  We can't afford it now, but man I wish we could!!!

     It does get soo much easier..hang in there!

    I'm so sorry that you are having a hard time. I am right there with you. I think that it is important to get some time for yourself. Even if it is just a break for a hot bath or an hour out and about. I rarely get one of those, but when I do it really helps. Can your mom help you out a couple times a week so you can have a break? Or can your DP ?

    Girl, I can soooo relate!! I'm wanting so badly to wean his MOTN feeding...but then I reconsider and thing we both like that time. What to do, what to do?

    But I did get out tonight for about an hour meeting a friend for coffee and it was a great break. Maybe see if you can sqeeze one in there! I went after JT went to bed so I didn't have to worry about him getting to sleep, nursing, pumping, etc.
