Today is a bad day and I'm feeling really overwhelmed with having two soon

My toddler today was just off the wall. He woke up early wouldnt nap poured blueberry yogurt on the floor. I got him upstairs for a bath and as I'm drying him off on our bed he poops all over my favorite set of sheets I get him cleaned up. I thought I got him down for a nap and figured I'd have enough time to do my tort exam but no he gets back up after half an hour and spends the time I'm trying to finish the exam since I cant stop and restart it ( I would have done it sooner but I've been trying to get a handle on my sugar and its been really tough) I really don't know how I'm going to handle two and I am kind of freaking out. Normally my son is so chill and fun he was a monster today. My husband is running our sheets through the wash my living room is a wreck and I want to cry. I didn't think kids would be easy and I'm thankful for our second son but how will I do this.

    I'm sorry it was such a rough day! Definitely been there, and it always makes me appreciate the good days that much more.

    God wouldnt that be amazing! the pipes are in the wall shared with DS room so I can't once he goes to bed. The sound of the water wakes him up. I'm staying up long enough to get my favorite sheets washed and dried then its unisom and medicine time DH can deal with the mess from dinner and our whirlwind of a child.

    (((HUGS))) We have been having rough days here too. I'm hoping once his canines come in we can go back to happy go lucky. I have also been questioning my sanity in having 2 lately but we'll both make it work! Days like today I wish I could have a beer. Or 5.

    Sorry you had a rough day! To be honest I think today was just a bad day for all kids. My DS was beyond evil today and like your little guy mine is normally pretty laid back for a 2 yr old. Just a bad day! And it does normally seem that their bad days fall on days that we have things had we need to get done. I hope you did well on your test. Sorry about your sheets. Have a glass of wine and put your feet up! You deserve it!

    Maybe it was something in the toddler air today because my LO was making me nuts. Hope you have a better day tomorrow.

    I'm right there with you. My almost three year old kicked me in the shin when I picked him up from daycare and destroyed the living room while I changed clothes and used the bathroom. DESTROYED. He was difficult all night. He is currently screaming in his room instead of sleeping because I won't let him wear his bike helmet to bed. I can't imagine what I would have done tonight with a baby too. So I'm just going to pretend I'm not pregnant and that everything is going to be okay.

    Something must be in the air today. My typically chill almost three year old was a wreck today. His favorite phrase of the day was "you hurt my feelings we 're not best friends." With these crazy pregnancy hormones or just makes me want to alternate from crying to running out of the house screening.

    That does sound like a rough day.  I have had the same fear with each new baby we have.  I always say to DH "What have we gotten ourselves into?!"  I am afraid again and this will be our fourth kid.  It will work itself out.  Things will be chaotic and you will have bad days but there seriously will be more good days where everything will fall into place.

    Oh i feel your pain. When I had bad days with DS1 I would ask myself the same questions. :( and I'm not going to lie, there are bad days with the 2, similar to what you just described, they play off of each other. But it doesn't happen often, and now that they are getting older they are playing together more, and getting on each other's nerves instead of mine ;) more good/ok days then there are disasters.

    Do we have the same child? Anytime I do something my son doesn't like he tells me I am not his best friend anymore.

    I have been experiencing the same fear. Today my DH actually asked me how DS was going to handle things when DD came. I know DS will go back and forth between jealousy and adoration. It will be interesting to see how DS, DH, and I all handle a second child. It is definitely an adventure.

    I'm so sorry to hear you had a rough day! Tomorrow's a fresh start. I don't know how you mamas do it (I suppose I will once the time for baby 2 comes along) but man today I was overwhelmed and crying about everything ( I can count on one hand that that's happened this pregnancy...I've been so chill which is not me...) but looks like others had crazy days too / is it a full moon?!

    Sorry it was such a bad day. I have definitely had days like this and been scared of how I will handle two.

    I guess that today was just that day for toddlers. My DS was a pain today also. He is usually very rambunctious but today was over the top, and it makes me question how I will handle 2. You're not the only struggling with that fear! Hang in there and hopefully tomorrow will be a better day.
