That is exactly me right now. She’s not in daycare though … she’s home with me but it’s so hard especially because she has a cold so I’m also trying to keep the newborn safe. Ugh what to do
Same. Also my toddler has had a fever twice since we have had the baby, and had to be separated from him 50% of the timeto keep baby safe. Just not being able to give full attention and having our groove disrupted too. But I know we will get back there.
Yessss I keep telling myself this is just temporary . We haven’t separated them completely … just not letting her get too close but still it’s so heartbreaking I just want to attack her with hugs and kisses again.. what sucks even more was I had our newborn on the 20th and her 3rd bday was on the 21st so we weren’t even able to celebrate really 😭😭😭 major mom guilt over here
@Charlie ughhh that must be so hard. How is your toddler now? How were you able to keep them separated???
I miss just being my toddler and I 🥹🥹 the last week of this pregnancy I spent a lot of time with him making fun memories together… I feel so guilty rn for not having enough time for him always being tired with a new born
@Stephanie same girl. Ugh I wonder if this feeling changes … I’m sure it will once the babies don’t need us so much
I'm going through the same, I honestly don't know how to manage it. During the day, my almost 3 year old is in daycare, and I try to do stuff so I can keep my mind busy... however, at night, it's a nightmare. I start crying nonstop, remembering when he was a baby, or feeling guilty of not giving him enough attention. AWFUL.
