preg plus a 2yr old...

I know with pregnancy hormones its normal to get down. I, at the moment, would love to just lay down and cry. I think it would be the best thing in the world. But I don't have that option since I have to take care of my son. How do you deal with this??

Don't feel bad! Last night I was in a lot of pain and he decided to throw a tantrum in Walmart! I literally had to drag him out of the store. I went home and cried my eyes out. He saw me and gave me a huge hug and said everything was okay. Kids get that sometimes mommy gets exhausted too. They can make you actually feel better. Hope you find some rest and alone time. It's good for your health.

Sometimes crying in front of your child will help. I do it sometimes and my 2 yr old just snuggles with me til I'm done.

When I put him down for nap I have to go to work. So no relief there either. I hate crying in front if him but im on the brink and holding.

I have 33wks pregnant and I have a son who is two. It's really hard at times but I put all his toys in his room, turn on cartoons and let him occupy himself in there while I have time to myself. It is a huuuge help.

Most of the family lives 3hrs away. Manny is busy most of the week. And told me last week she wasn't going to do anything extra this whole week.

when he lays down for his nap just let it out and you will feel a ton better. sorry you're feeling this way :(

Do you have a family member that can give you a break every once in a while? I have a 2 yr old son as well and sometimes I just wake up not in the mood, you know what I mean? So when that happens I usually just call my mom bc I really just need a break and to maybe get some sleep.
