Anyone else’s baby kicking their arse?

I can’t get nothing done. I feel like I’m still in the newborn trenches, only this time, she can MOVE 😩 My baby is so smart and so happy (despite the tantrums lol) but she’s so clingy, always wants to be held and I’m drained from being “on” all the time. I constantly look homeless and my sanity is hanging on by a thread 🤣Someone say a prayer for me please… or 2 or 3.

@Kenyah No girl! Im in the trenches with you 🥲😂

So glad to know I’m not alone. It helps, a bit lol

@Shannon it really does

Totallyyy normal, just remind yourself that everything is a phase, and the phases do pass quickly and then you're onto the next 🤣😅 it's a constantly moving, evolving thing haha. I have a 3 year old little girl and a 7 month old boy and when I'm having a hard time I remind myself that 'this too shall pass' and things will get easier with time. Try to ask for help from family members too if you have someone you can trust! I totally know that it's not always easy to do this, I struggle with asking for help as I only have one person I trust with my children. You've got this! Sending love and good vibes. 💛

All I can say is from Sept 9m old babies get free child care so it’s coming!!! My LO is 18m and only recently she’s been playing independently. Every bus journey she wants to get it the pram. Since forever. Active baby. Sometimes I wish I had a passive baby but then I’d be wondering if she’d be smart if I’m still waiting to see it. So it’s a blessing. Time to bring in the village to do a couple of hours?

Same here 🫶🏽

Totally normal you’ll get through it you got this !!! 🤍🤍🤍I experienced the same as a first time month my LO is 12mo’s now still clingy it’s fine soon they will grow and want their own space xx

My baby just turned 1 and he is all over the place. Don't be afraid to let baby be alone in their cot for 15 minutes so you can shower, brush your teeth and get dressed and feel human. Leave them toys and/or use screen time (minimal is gonna be fine, like 1 episode of mickey mouse clubhouse gives you just over 25 minutes) and if they cry a bit it's okay cuz you're gonna be back. They're contained in a cot, they're safe, and you need to be okay, too.
