It will be good in time!

I would find it so hard to look after G all day long, it is sheer exhaustion!<br />I hope you find a way to have some child-free time soon, even if it is a couple of hours here and there. I find that G is a nightmare during the day if she hasn't had a good night sleep, not sure this is Lilian's case, but if so, try to sort out the nights and the days will be easier (for her and you). I have a great sleep therapist who showed me the way, let me know if you want her details.<br />Hang in there, Charlotte.<br />xxxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17588242775824543672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3645621547266256254.post-34642135666203675272013-07-10T22:15:18.897+01:002013-07-10T22:15:18.897+01:00Oh blimey, I'm hearing you. Yesterday my husba...Oh blimey, I'm hearing you. Yesterday my husband came home to find me crying on the kitchen floor. I wanted to quit being a mum (and wife). I hate it more days than not. What a terrible admission. Maybe we should all club together (a fiver each?) And buy a really cheap desert island where we can all go and sob in peace. Or drink cocktails. I'm fed up of not making enough money, saying the wrong things to mae, being a 'bad mother'. Jeez, roll on 4 years then 'cos 2 and a half is pretty shit. helenhttp://www.helenwoodward.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3645621547266256254.post-18772760779658181802013-07-10T18:22:58.751+01:002013-07-10T18:22:58.751+01:00Is nursery an option?

Also, my mother always says that they are great when I'm not around, they only turn to moany little things the second I walk in the door. Some days I wonder why I go home at all if that's the case... But then on most days I know that kids just feel the most relaxed around their mothers so whatever is bothering them, they let it all out - no holding back.<br /><br />I'm not sure that comment helped at all but just letting you know you're not the only one who has an exhausting child.<br /><br />Hang in there. 4 is already a much better age!Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15482459464795182198noreply@blogger.com
