Anyone else?😞

Question

I’m so tired all the time but I sleep like crap. I’m cranky and exhausted emotionally, mentally and physically. My two year old won’t leave me alone - she climbs all over me all day and night and I just don’t wanna be touched. Except I want my hair to be played with for like a solid hour so I can just relax. My husband doesn’t understand how I’m feeling I’m pretty sure he thinks I’m annoying and crazy. I just feel like a crazy terrible mom who can’t get her shit together 😭😩I’m only 32w and have forever to go still and I’m not seeing a light at the end of the tunnel. 😩😔

Answer

I feel this. Take a unisom at night. It’s safe and you’ll feel like you can take on the day the next day. (Plus you might as well get some sleep while you can before baby comes). My three year old stopped napping, but I will still make him lay in his bed with his tablet for quiet/sanity time. Find any little break you can for yourself. Pregnancy with a toddler is not for the faint of heart.

Answer

I’m definitely going through this also

Answer

Yes! I’m dead...and I still have 8 weeks of this!

Answer

There is something about 30-32 weeks that makes me miserable during both my pregnancies, and then I snap out of it. I think when you hit 30 weeks you feel almost done, and then you’re like ‘wait, shit, I still have a long time’ and it’s demoralizing. Or at least that’s how I’ve felt...
And I totally feel you with a 2 year old and not wanting to be touched. I’m already touched out (something I struggled with while breastfeeding my first) and haven’t even had the new baby yet. All I know is I can’t have my daughter sit on my lap anymore without shoes on, because she puts her feet on my leg and it makes me want to scream. 
Anyways, good luck! I’m 35 weeks and finally starting to feel the light at the end of the tunnel, so hopefully you will soon too!

Answer

I swear there is something biological that makes being touched by a toddler worse right before birth. It happened with my oldest when my youngest was born, she was 2.5 and I felt SO guilty. And because for the past two years I have enjoyed cuddling my youngest, I started to worry I wouldn’t want to cuddle baby 3. Well I shouldn’t have worried because now sometimes I have to fight the skin crawling feeling when my youngest, climbs into my lap.

Answer

We can do this ladies🖤 I’m just glad to know I’m not alone. The guilt kinda takes over and I feel so bad. This is supposed to be beautiful and all the happiness but I’m just over it.

Answer

I’m tired all the time now also waking up almost every hour of the night
