Sorry for the crazy vent. dh is out of town this week on business, my work is insane with multiple deadlines, and db (8 mo) for reasons unknown has woken up every night at 3, demanded to nurse and then refused to go back to sleep. I'm tired and out of it, and want to run away to a deserted island. How do working moms all over the world do this? I'm too f&^%#*g old for this, I swear. [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

Lots of caffeine and I have a husband who really pulls his weight (not criticizing yours just saying what helps my situation). FWIW I am primary wage earner. [ Reply | More

Take it easy on yourself. You are juggling a lot right now. When times get particularly tough, I was say to myself "dig deep and just get through the next 5 mins". [ Reply | More

This is good advice, and, rest assured, your 8 mo will never remember you snapping at him! It's hard, just take deep breaths and get through and, I try to be extra diligent at work rest of time to make up for the times when motherhood and 2 full time jobs puts me out of it. [ Reply | More

Just be grateful you aren't sick this week. I had the same experience a year ago but with two kids and also had the flu. It's really hard when you WOHM fulltime and have no help or family around. Good luck! [ Reply | More
