Snapped

I've lost it today, snapped. Baby is nearly 7 weeks old, I've come on my period, he's not been sleeping and everyday I'm not eating enough because I'm constantly being sidetracked cleaning up messes my partner and kids are apparently blind to, keeping up with washing otherwise it will mount to unmanageable amounts. I spent my entire pregnancy preparing my whole household for what I would need from them and how long they could expect things to take to return to a "normal" after baby arrived and it's gone in one ear out of the other. I printed recipes, meal ideas and am still responsible for doing food shopping every week yet I'm still being asked "what shall I make for dinner?" "What do you want for dinner?" "Do you want xyz?" I literally made a questions you CAN ask me and questions NOT TO ask me list because I KNEW THEY WOULD DO THIS. I'm exhausted, overstimulated, frustrated and pissed off constantly atm. Anyone relate at all?

It's not just questions about dinner obv, it's constant about every tiny thing. How do men claim women can't be leaders yet display this staggering lack of executive decision making skills in their own homes?? "Shall I help tidy up?" "Shall I take the kids to the park?" "Where's the scissors?" It never ends

In the same boat 100%!!!! I am so overwhelmed with everything, running after everyone with next to no help! I am so aggravated everyday and moody because like yourself I don’t get to eat/rest/shower etc when I need to but everyone else does!! I’m always last, no one ever takes me into consideration & I do everything for everyone!

I hate that you can relate but glad I'm not just being a brat! It's also the way everyone acts like you're unreasonable when you're snappy, like not having your basic human needs met will do that to a person! I finally sat on the bed and cried after I posted this, it helped a little bit lol

Some days I’m at my breaking point so I feel you on this! Like my partner this evening after I bathed OUR daughter was huffing at me because he hadn’t had a shower yet so I said “well neither have I” and he said “oh but you haven’t been to work all day on a construction site you’ve had all day” I’ve been food shopping for OUR food and also looking after OUR son who refuses to be put down at the minute so I would have to have a shower while he screams and now I’m tidying up after dinner I won’t get a shower till at least 9pm, it’s a bloody joke!
