Miserable

Comment Published at 02:3402:346 comments6 comments21 Visits21 VisitsReport

I was looking forward to spending some time at home with the kids this week as there has been no preschool this week, but now I am really over it!  I have had all week at home with the kids - save two outings and a friend popping in for coffee.  DH has been working all week and then just coming home to bed - so no adult conversation there.  Today he has been out from 7.30 to 6.30.  I am tired, frustrated and depressed.  The rain we longed for is here so we have been inside mostly ( a few outdoor plays in between rain) and the house is a disaster.  On top of that I am losing it with these two gorgeous kids - B has whinged all day and it is so draining.  She has had several feeds and I am getting a bit frustrated as she is hurting me.  Then my little man who can been so lovely at times has just been a horror - and taking it out on his sister.  So, this evening I lost it - I yelled and I cried and I felt like the worst mum in the whole world.  Hopefully today is just a bad day and things will improve tomorrow.

Re: Miserable

Don't feel too bad about yelling and crying in front of the kids - sometimes i get to that point too (not too often i hope!). I find thats when they actually realise that Mum has had enough of any bad behaviour and they usually wait until i've calmed down and then they give me a hug and apologise. I think that sometimes when they see us behave how they do they can understand how we are feeling. I lost it this afternoon, and then lost my voice! Ha, ha!  I do hope things start to calm down though.

Oh, poor you! Tomorrows a new day - hope it's heaps better!

Glad to hear the rain's come at last - hopefully your tank is filling up, and your garden too! One less bill to pay I hope? Kids getting stuck indoors is no fun - perhaps you can go puddle-splashing tomorrow? At least it might distract B from feeding all day and give you a chance to recover? Or maybe they will have enough fun with their friends at church tomorrow to be in a nice mood with you? Em was too poorly to be horrible at all today - definitely ill!

Re: Miserable

We all have bad days huh? Sounds like they need an outing but difficult when it is raining I guess. Don't beat yourself up too much. Hope that tomorrow is more fun.

You poor thing.  I can totally empathise with you, it's really difficult when you have to deal with it all yourslef.  Hopefully they will go to bed early and you can have a few hours to yourself and relax.
