How to not fall apart..?

Question

I have a 14 month old and a 3 week old. Tonight one is fighting sleep and the other is over tired. They were both screaming. Running between my two babies to calm them down but having to leave and go comfort the other is stressful and had me thinking some not so nice things and the whole ordeal ended with me in tears and it lasted an hour. Does anyone have any suggestions or tips on how I can better handle this for next time?

Answer

Try to stay as true as you can to the bedtime routine you established for the 14 month old. That should help.

Answer

Oh man. That has to be tough. Is there a way to move both into one room? This way you can at least stay in one place instead of running between two rooms? Especially since I saw you said your husband gets home late at night.

Answer

Oh man I’m so sorry mamma!! Sounds like you’re run ragged - they’re probably also feeding off of each other’s emotions. I would probably just pull them both into bed with me and cry with them if I was in your shoes.

Answer

You are amazing!!! That age gap must be tough... I barely kept it together with a 20 month gap. It's okay to feel down sometimes... but don't ever think you're doing anything wrong... it's so unpredictable when they're that tiny. Hang in there, it will get better. ❤❤❤

Answer

May I recommend paying attention to this feeling and if you notice it continues please talk to your doctor :)
Honestly I would just remember that each day is a new day...both of your LOs are trying to figure out what the heck is going on ❤️ you’ve got this mama

Answer

You and your husband can both tag team the kids together as a team 😀
