Screen time 🥲

Anyone else just given up😭 I’m 31 weeks with a nearly two year old and I used to be sooo anti screen time but I just don’t have the energy anymore and I feel so guilty which idk why cos he’s fed and happy ? I just wish I could do more but I’m just at that stage where I wanna rot on the sofa 😭 The tellys been on practically all day this week and every time he goes to bed I just cry cos I wish I did more with him cos I either need to get things done or just need a break as I don’t have much help. He’s a very high needs child and is extremelyyyyy clingy , I’ve kind of learned to just accept that now but when I’m as heavy as i am now I’d rather be left alone when cooking or cleaning cos I can’t bend over constantly to tidy the mess and sometimes he helps me tidy but majority of the time he just runs off on to his next adventure which I don’t blame him he’s just a baby but I’m so exhausted by the mum guilt 🥲

I’ll be honest Ms Rachel has been a fab baby sitter. I have no family and friends near so it’s just us during the day all week and it’s definitely getting harder. Sometimes I do feel guilty as she’s only 10 months but also she’s clean, fed and happy if she needs anything or wants me to interact I will but there’s only so much sitting on the floor I can do at the moment 😅

Do what you have to do really, I would just try to keep it educational, but really don't feel guilty especially if you don't have support. I'm 32w and been battling sickness since week5, my husband helping a lot but he is also getting tired with our almost 4yo. He has been using his tablet a lot more lately, we just make sure he mostly play with games or watch videos educational

Don’t feel guilty. I did the same, at the end of the day what I think is they are growing up around all these things so no matter what they will be using them one day anyway
