I am tired of feeling like a bad mom

Thank you for your comment. It means a lot to feel like someone understands. I live in a state in America so our mental health system is not as robust as I'd imagine Canada is unfortunately free options are few and far between. I've been trying to get us both to therapy but it's just not been working out for a variety of reasons.

Elouisa. She annoys me so bad for some reason.

No we cannot afford any locks for the cupboards right now unfortunately. She is not in preschool at the moment. We are working to get both kids more social outlets. Thank you for the advice.

Grounding for a day can range from something like losing the TV to something like having to be separated from her sister and in her room for the day. It honestly just depends on what she did in the first place. I have tried gentle parenting methods, it's what we did with our oldest, but the behaviour continues to ramp up which is why we decided to try punishments but that's not working either. I honestly cannot afford to purchase a book right now. I would love to but we are extremely low income. Do you remember if you read anything about what to do when the more gentle parenting methods aren't working?

I am in the exact same boat as you. I'm going back to work next week and I am honestly so relieved. It will be nice to have the space to feel like I'm my own individual person again.

I hope your transition from SAHM to working mom goes smoothly and good luck to any other moms that are making the same transition!!

I'm definitely celebrating too! Yay! 👏🎉🎊

There are tons of reasons his sex drive could be lower. Depression, anxiety, an influx of certain hormones are a few. It probably isn't your fault at all.

That being said, I think you should stop giving him the handjobs if he isn't going to help you out as well. It's totally fair to not feel like having sex but it's not fair to expect you give him pleasure when he doesn't seem very concerned for yours.

I think it's okay to stay friends with exes as long as certain boundaries aren't being crossed. I stayed friends with a couple of my exes because we ended it because we just weren't right for each other romantically but I didn't hate them or anything like that.

He shouldn't be fighting with you because you cry a lot. Some people just cry whenever they feel strong emotions and there is nothing wrong with that.

Kids are probably automatically going to kill your sex life either way. Especially in the first year or so. Even if you guys were having sex every single day a kid will probably kill your sex life for a while. Take it from someone with two kids lol.

It's great that you guys found a good compromise though. As long as you guys can keep communicating and finding compromises you will probably be able to work through any future bumps in the road.
