Anyone else feel so overwhelmed with the care of their db (1yo)? I feel like I am so bogged down with worring about what she needs and daily mundane things (taking a shower, laundry, grocery shopping, etc.) that I have no time to organize myself or get much else done.

i have three. they are really spaced out- 9,5 and 1.5--- its really hard. i cant get anything done, especially with the baby around. i cant take a shower unless dh is home or its night... i am usually overwhelmed by it all, but then i try to think for a moment what a blessing they are and try to enjoy them, the laundry will ahve to wait... i try to get food delivered if its a bad hour, or i bring good snacks at the supermarket... good luck [ Reply | More
