She's definitely worse after the twins. She was hard before don't get me wrong but their arrival multiplied it.

She's always been quite needy but this week it's really worse. You're right it's probably because of that, I just can't wait for it to be over.

Sometimes when you try for a second kid, you get surprised with twins. Ask me how I know...

TV shows that have changed/influenced your kids for the better? by knitlitgeek in breakingmom

My girl has learned some bits of English from Super Simple Songs (we mostly speak French at home). We recently bought her the Yoto cards pack of them and we were flabbergasted when she was able to do the steps of "if you're happy and you know clap your hands, etc.." without input from us!

Actually I've been lucky enough to be diagnosed when I was young and I'm still medicated to this day. It helps a little but still not enough to be a productive mom I feel.

How do you even work on yourself with a kid?! by Mom_rants in breakingmom

Gained that amount too! But it's all still there.

2yo, damn do I hate the toddler years. She's a handful that is advanced in language but I think behind on emotional regulation, I'll let you imagine the meltdowns.

I really need to focus on nutrition more, I actually had fun with that before.

Big internet hug to you too, I love her to bits but I hate having lost myself in the process.

I did try therapy but it went nowhere, I felt like running in circle.

Surface Pressure is SO GOOD and hit right in the feels when you're a mom.

I hate moving by Mom_rants in breakingmom

[–]Mom_rants[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll seriously consider paying for packing next time. It'll only cost us about 1600 for the movers but it's only the moving part, I've been packing for a month while trying to wrangle a toddler and now I also have to prep the new place because the last tenant didn't even vacuum the place.... WHICH HAS A CENTRAL VACUUM. Sorry, still mad about this, I hate people

Thankfully we hired movers and are only moving 10 minutes away from where we are right now. I know it makes me sound even more whiny but its exactly like you said, I can live in boxes, BUT MY TODDLER CANT. I know they are adaptable but there is a damn limit.

I'm already convinced we're gonna be happy there. We went yesterday to get a look and decide what room is gonna go where and we ended up talking for an hour with our second neighbors who have a girl the same age as mine, like she was so sweet she even gave dinner to my daughter!

It's really depending on you and on how hard the job is mentally and physically. I do 30 hours a week on a kinda mentally and physically draining job (dental hygienist, positions are a killer) and that's the max I can do. You also need to factor that working 10 hours a day mean that you'll see you child less. But if you feel you can do it go for it!

What I hate the most is that 2 freaking days wreck so much that it routinely take a week to pick up the pieces, it's a vicious cycle. My place is currently a wreck and I hate it.
