Absolutely not alone. Been there myself and all my friends with babies been in your place. You will feel guilt and even resentment towards the sometimes when you are too tired. Just try to take a break (hire baby sitter, ask for help your friends&family) so you can have day or couple to yourself. Think you first in this instance cause baby gonna be happy only if you are. But you defend not alone ❤️
I definitely feel like this some days. And I’m pregnant too with baby 2. It is alot but yeah take it easy on yourself. 😊
Nap when toddler naps! I do not miss being pregnant and having a toddler to look after, apart from now I have an 18 month old and a three year old and life is busy! I often put the telly on to avoid being mummy climbing frame. Definitely give yourself a break, don't feel bad and do what you have to do to get through. End of pregnancy is tiring and then having a newborn and a toddler is hard. Ceebeebies was my daily friend for at least the first 6 months. I would say to buy some age appropriate puzzles as toddlers love love and also get some craft stuff that your eldest can busy herself with. Pritt sticks, pom poms, tissue paper, paint sticks, anything. Nowy youngest is a bit older, he gets involved too and it's great for a nice quiet, focused activity at home xx
You’re not being unreasonable at all! Being a mum is a lot harder than any of us realised until actually becoming one, you shouldn’t feel bad for needing a break I have quite a lot of days like this where I feel completely unbothered and don’t feel like getting us ready and going out, on days like this, screens are a life saver and fun independent activities that LO can do while you have a cuppa and a rest , like play doh And who knows? You might feel a bit better in the afternoon and want to go out Regardless , don’t ever feel bad or guilty, it is hard some days
