Vent...!

in Babies: 6 - 9 Months
I am having one of those AHHH days. I am a SAHM and my DD works long hours. I bathed LO, nursed, saline drops, (stopped up nose),  and rocked him. I had to put him in his crib because he kept pulling my hair, necklace, and anything he could find. My shoulders feel so tense, I just need a break. Just a break. Sorry if I sound blah, just having a moment. Anybody understand?

    I completely understand!!! I am a stay at home mom too and I was literally counting down the minutes until my fiance came home last Thursday. I did everything under the sun to make that baby happy and he still wanted to have his little fits, not take a nap...etc. As I am sure you feel it's not personal, we love our babies and there is never a day we would give them up but boy did I want to run away! I don't know about you but days like that make me wonder about what it would be like going back to work :/ .... but then of course the next day is amazing and I scratch that idea.

    Hang in there! Everyone needs a few minutes to catch their breath. My DH is gone on a business trip and I couldn't even brush my teeth without crying.

    Okay, getting emotional *teary eyed*.  I wouldn't trade him for anything or the precious time I get to spend with him. It is priceless and so is he. I feel guilty feeling that way, but then I hear stuff from other mother's and I feel normal again. I'm so grateful for this board. I would love to get into a mommies group in our area, but don't know where to look.  I tell my DH that his jobs is easy compared to mine. I get the feeling he doesn't believe me.

    SAHM here too...there are defiantly days when i'd love to just go for a walk alone or walk the mall with a coffee! 

    yesterday i met my mom and she took DS and i went to the grocery store alone! it was glorious!!! i wandered through the aisles and took my time...i spent $200 but that's okay! haha i'm ready for my Xmas party now!!

    don't feel guilty - we would NEVER give up our LO's but a break is nice every once in a while.

    check Facebook for mommy groups - or just make it your status and who knows, someone may know something. or contact your local rec centre or YMCA...

    hope you have a better day today! go give your LO a big kiss and when she smiles at you it'll be all better!!
