Struggling..

Anyone else struggling a lot recently? Little man is going through a 10/20 minute nap stage, gets bored easy, doesn’t want to be out of my sight, makes very loud screeching noises constantly. He is a very happy boy but I feel myself looking forward to bedtime.. Then I feel guilty for being relieved he is asleep and hoping for a longer nap. Anyone else feeling this way? The mum guilt is eating me up with how overstimulated and emotionally exhausted I am

Yep you’re definitely not alone. We’re at the 30 minute max naps and I have to fight her for them x

Also resenting my partner at the moment. Whenever I get the LO to sleep he comes and speaks very loudly or does something loud and wakes him up, then gets upset that I’m frustrated with him. He hasn’t been the one to spend hours trying to get the LO to sleep and I’ll be the one up all night 😢

Feel free to message btw as sounds like we’re in exactly the same boat!

Yup, shitty naps. Up every couple of hours at night wanting to be held. I feel lucky on occasions where he sleeps through the night. Also, constantly screaming (a happy scream) gets bored after 10 mins of playing. Very clingy too. My husband would walk in loudly when baby was napping, so i changed where the baby naps as husband works in the cabin outside and has to come in the house on breaks.
