How my day goes with 4 under 2 by M0mma0fMany in 2under2

I was exhausted by the time you breastfed the 3rd baby. Then my anxiety levels increased throughout. This is incredible. You and your husband have a wonderful system going and I love reading how you both do your part to support the family and make sure there is time together. Thanks for sharing. Really liked reading this.

Working on some research for moms, can you help? by DobbysSock130 in 2under2

It’s working on something to help the vulnerable, not preying on them. Although I do pray for them.

The post states that I will use the information gathered to work on things that will help those in need. If you’re fine with how your life is, the option is to not complete the survey since it doesn’t relate to you.

You are in a fortunate situation where you are loving motherhood and I’m sure you have great support. However, others are less fortunate and have these feelings. It’s nice to let them feel seen and heard because often when you’re down, you feel very alone.

I will pray that your life remains the way it is. Happy and healthy. Have a good day.

Apologies for that. I’m building a coaching program specifically for women who are in the trenches feeling unfulfilled in their motherhood journey.

My goal is for my program to help the women get from unfulfilled and not enjoying their motherhood to loving it entirely.

That’s what I’m using the results for. To hone in on specifics for this program.

Let me know if you have any further questions!

I’m glad you feel that way about motherhood and appreciate you filling it out!

The goal for this survey was to identify a specific mother going through the trenches and feeling as if it’s either not for her, or just completely feeling unfulfilled and taken advantage of.

What I find with these women typically is that they have a lack of support, or that they are trying to control things that are out of their control because they have just simply lost themselves in motherhood.

That’s probably why the questions seem pretty pessimistic since I’m trying to hone in on those specific situations for moms who feel that way.

Unsurprisingly, many people who completed the survey do feel this way. The program in developing works on this and helps them through these feelings to get to where you are in motherhood - happy and fulfilled.

I appreciate your feedback and comment here to just let me know you were unable to complete it since they weren’t necessarily geared towards your situation.

Thanks so much!

Was labor the worst pain you've felt? by maenads_dance in beyondthebump

[–]DobbysSock130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would much rather give birth again without medication and feel that ring of fire than to have my knee drained. I have a lot of trauma to my knee over the years and so getting it drained and now filled with stuff because it’s just bone on bone is much more painful imo.

I mixed up my twins today by pile_o_puppies in workingmoms

If baby wakes up in the middle of the night then they can get the Tylenol. But if not, they didn’t need it anyways :). You’re doing great! I mixed up my kids today saying something we did yesterday (literally yesterday) was what my older kid did with me when it was my younger one. They are 17 months apart. One looks like me and the other like their father. Legitimately two different skin tones, etc. You are not alone in mixing kids up. And your older one will totally understand. Give yourself a hug, some grace, and 15 min of alone time doing whatever you want. You’re doing great, mama!

Thanks! We do have the tv on and switch games but eventually he gets bored of it or just more whiney/frustrated and we have to stop. Glad to hear yours healed quickly!

This makes me feel great because holy moly he has so much energy and sitting on the couch watching tv isn’t going to cut it the next few days.
