@Eloise exactly! She needs to be conjoined to me pretty much. But like also, I’m tired of getting my hair pulled and my face smacked 🤦🏽♀️ just tired all in all. I honestly have left the house just be but I also live with my in laws and I just hate them seeing it a mess sometimes. I feel like I’m being judged even if they aren’t. 😓 I’m a huge overthinker and sometimes I feel like how can I be home everyday but not be able to get anything done 😭
I get it I really do, but I’m pretty sure your in-laws know how it is raising a baby! How much attention and time they take over! The only thing I can suggest is nap windows but I presume that they aren’t that big any more, sometimes my daughter even skips some nap times! Have you tried to break your day down, pretty sure baby might just be as fed up as you and maybe try some different activities even if it’s get up get ready and leave the house to go for a walk or even to the park, or even if baby’s in the pushchair and you go for a walk just to breath, at the end of the day, if your in-laws have a problem they should speak up, but at the same time the saying that it takes a village is honestly so real! And maybe it’s a chat you need to have with the in-laws to get it of your chest and so you can sort of ask for acceptance maybe see if there’s a window of time that they can take over for abit and you go to the gym or somthing for some alone time I love for the gym just helps clear my
Mind so much, maybe then when you come back run yourself a bath and then help with tidying up while your running it, I do baby led weaning so she eats practically on her own, so I will put for instance ms Rachel on sometimes with her in her chair eating while I clean up round the mess try other ways to keep her occupied maybe if you don’t like leaving her as it’s how you feel that you could have a camera or baby monitor on her while your in a different room,
You could also write lists and tick them off IE put the toys away and then you’ve ticked it off but also tick of the 3000 other times your putting the toys away it’s hard being a stay at home mom! Days and both night goes so fast and you don’t know if your coming or going I have a 10 year gap between my kids and I’m only 25 and I can honestly promise you it does get better with time xxx
my ten month old is the exact same at the moment and it’s almost constant. he’s extremely clingy, very up and down/irritable😕
@Eloise I did this today, thank you! They watched her and I caught up on some stuff. It was hard wanting to spend some time to myself but picking to do the stuff I NEED to do instead. But that’d adulting lol! Things will get done slowly but surely. I just need to realize that I need to give myself grace and patience. But you’re so right, she’s probably feeling it too. I’m gonna try and get out with her more, even if it’s for a walk around the block.
@Jodie is he yelling like he just fell and hit his head 😭 it’s the yelling that’s getting to me
yes! i’ve had a headache everyday for the past week by the end of the day. i feel for him because i can see how frustrated he is!
Heyyyy, my 10 month old is like this, I noticed she was coming down with a cold to be honest but also 10 month regression also can cause this aswell!!! I know I can be worse if baby is breast fed, there’s been days I haven’t been able to get much done, just remember as long as your house isn’t “dirty” then its fine your house is lived in and the tidying can wait! I’m up to my eyeballs in washing because that’s not as important as baby! Sometimes I think my baby wants to live inside me or be conjoined to me like sitting on my face isn’t close enough to me at times xx
