I'm ok ... but I'm also not ok

Toddler and newborn, both incredibly high needs. Just really struggling with having children scream at me 24 hours a day. All I seem to do is clean, tidy and look after children who are either screaming or tantruming. Feel so touched out and overwhelmed at the end of the day.

Yep this is my life, too. I'm just clinging onto the hope it does get easier. I have twins and they both cry a lot and need help getting to sleep through the day. As soon as I put one down the other one cries 🫠. And we have a two year old as well. Urghhhhh.

I feel you! I have a 13 month old and a 8 week old, it’s intense! I’ve found taking a little bit of time when my husband gets home each day really helps me to reset and have more patience, I’ve joined a lovey gym with a gorgeous pool and I’ve been going there at 5pm, meaning he doesn’t 5-7 and dinner and bedtime with the toddler aka the hardest part of the day 😂 I come home feeling like a better wife, and a less touched out mum! Xxx

My partner works nights, he didn't when I first fell pregnant, but then his shifts changed. Although he's technically there, I'm basically solo parenting. I have to timetable in a shower!!
