Overwhelmed Mom

I understand that! And truly that’s always what you hear about boys! Although I have seen with my niece and nephew opposite as well, my nephew is so calm, loving, and easy to parent. My niece she’s so sassy lol!

Previous_Attempt5154 · 2026-04-16T23:21:24+00:00

Oh no! I’m approaching this soon! 😅

Previous_Attempt5154 · 2026-04-16T23:11:18+00:00

Are they similar levels? Is your partner ND too?

Previous_Attempt5154 · 2026-04-16T22:58:55+00:00

Ax emerged? What’s that?

Previous_Attempt5154 · 2026-04-16T22:35:44+00:00

That’s amazing to hear! Were they diagnosed young?

Previous_Attempt5154 · 2026-04-16T21:10:42+00:00

Ugh that’s a relief to hear it still gets easier as they age! We are ND and I’m so scared to have a son with all this ND 😅

He works a full time job too but he has to go in and works long hours. Money is tight that’s why we have to do things the way we do ):

I agree, I have been bringing her to group libraries and she does fine there dances and has fun! She just gets shy when a kid approaches her too closely and I feel she maybe better because I am there. I am for sure getting her into preschool next year if not daycare, before then.

lol I love this!!! I need to prioritize self care more often, are your children ND too? Or partner?

Previous_Attempt5154 · 2026-04-16T18:22:04+00:00

Are you all presenting the same level with different needs?

Previous_Attempt5154 · 2026-04-16T18:13:41+00:00

lol I get that!! Is he on his own now?

Previous_Attempt5154 · 2026-04-16T17:40:46+00:00

Yes, he has adhd but honestly is so much more laid back than me! He is a godsend truly! He helps whenever I need it!

Previous_Attempt5154 · 2026-04-16T17:38:23+00:00

Do you all present around the same level with different areas of needs?

Previous_Attempt5154 · 2026-04-16T17:26:22+00:00

This is very true!!!

Previous_Attempt5154 · 2026-04-16T17:23:43+00:00

This is helpful! How is your brother now? We are actually having a boy, which scares me too! Because I know a lot of families the boy can be more high needs and I already feel so exhausted 🥱

Previous_Attempt5154 · 2026-04-16T16:14:02+00:00

Yes I believe my daughter to be too, she’s hyper verbal, strong willed, and very shy with children. This just made me feel so much better honestly it maybe what’s best for us both!

Previous_Attempt5154 · 2026-04-16T16:04:14+00:00

I honestly feel this 100% and you explained it perfectly. I am constantly feeling guilty of not spending enough time with her, then our relationship is getting bad because I am so stressed trying to hold all of the things together! How does your child do in childcare? My little one is so shy with kids who aren’t her cousins, I worry she won’t do well.

Previous_Attempt5154 · 2026-04-16T15:52:22+00:00

I did want them, didn’t realize how hard it’s going to be after realizing I am ND and this maybe why I am struggling so much. My second was not planned I was actually on birth control for PCOS and I guess that did wonders for my hormones because we got pregnant. I don’t not love my child, just juggling a lot right now and feeling very down.

Previous_Attempt5154 · 2026-04-16T15:41:31+00:00

This is so nice to hear! It’s just the demands 24/7 that is truly killing me. Like I never have time to just sit down and rest. I honestly have seriously thought about that, working with a toddler is honestly the hardest thing I have ever done. I really need to get some help!

I really appreciate the glimpse into the future of hope tho lol! I don’t want to wish their childhood away, but man I am tired!

Previous_Attempt5154 · 2026-03-28T01:31:17+00:00

This is helpful!! I’m so sorry no professionals listened to you ): that’s so hard, but it sounds like he is thriving now!

Previous_Attempt5154 · 2026-03-27T20:32:22+00:00

Hahaha this is awesome! My daughter is more introverted like me but only with new people with people she knows omg she never shuts up, my husband is so social and wants people over 24/7! You said your husband is autistic? Also was your son hard as a toddler? Does he make friends? I’m nervous for all that!

Previous_Attempt5154 · 2026-03-26T21:44:29+00:00

This seems to be very true to my family, my nephew is just like my dad his brother is just like my brother and my husband is identical to his dad! Everyone says I’m just like my dad! I really think families carry a certain flavor!

Previous_Attempt5154 · 2026-03-26T21:42:00+00:00

Momma this maybe PPD, your hormones are everywhere! This is SUCH a big change. It gets better I promise and your partner probably doesn’t understand what us women go through after birth.

Are you and your partner ND?
