advice, ladies:/

Well, am 11 weeks and my pregnancy is different from my first. I feel so nosiated and my tummy hurt. All day have I had a big headace.
It looks like I dont have patient that much any more with my girl. She is 1 1/5 and extreme energetic, and she is testing my patient all the time. I dont like to yell at her but my patients runs out and after I have told her of, I feel so bad. My hubby dosent help that much because he'll be working all night and be sleeping all day. And we are at the edge of divorcing because of the bad treatment his giving me and his temper problem. I feel so alone sometimes with my battles eventhough I know God hears my prayers.

I have been sitting down and talked with my hubby about this even had my friend to have contaced him but dosnt really see any changes. He uses work as an excuse all the time, and I am getting tired of it

Does ur husband intend to change his hours at work when new baby arrives?  Its sounds like u both need to raise this topic because im sure u don't want to have to do it alone! It will also help the relationship if u do it together. My daughter is 13 soon and sometimes she irritates me but thats just my hormones speaking lol.

And I feel soo bad for my daughter that she cant get some more space to play or I cant take her out that much because I am so tired and we have been sick all of us this week. And I litrally hate it when I tell her of. I feel like a bad mommy with no patience. Sometimes it even makes me cry

Maybe sit down with your hubby and just tell him everything you are feeling. It can't hurt! Plus it will be a relief to vent it out too

I would love to have a time of, and even asked my hubby to take care of our daughter for a day so I can get some me time since I have been taking care of her since she was born and nobody has helped me that much. Unfortantly my friends and sister lives in another country in north so help isnt near. And we live in a small room in a house shared so there is no peace or another place in the house I can go to take a break.
I know that things will probably be more diffecault if we get a divorce. But if I cant see some changes I dont have a choise.

Time outs are a great thing.  And I mean for mommy.  When pregnant with my second I had to sometimes put myself in timeout.  I would turn on something for my daughter for a few minutes and calm myself down.  It really taught me patience and made me feel more in control with my temper.  It is cute now because when she gets upset she goes and sits by herself a minute and then comes calmly and explains what upset her or apologizes for getting upset. :-)

That is a hard situation :( I'm sorry for what you are going through! Maybe if you notice you are getting impatient just walk away for a second and take a breather. I hope things get easier and I will say a prayer for you!
