Moms of 2 or More Kids
Does it get easier?????
My daughter Evelyn is 3.5 years old. Amelia is almost 3 weeks old. I'm feeling like a crappy mom lately. I know I am not spending enough time with Evelyn. She wantd me to play so bad and I do my best to play either her, but Amelia demands a lot of my attention. My husband works 12 hour drift 3-4 days per week and those are the hardest days, tho my parents do come and help out a lot. Thank God for them.
Amelia just doesn't settle as well for anyone but me. She's bottle fed but eats best for me. She sometimes will sleep in her bassinet during the day so I can be with Evelyn but not always.
I just feel so bad for Evelyn. I want to play with her and she desperately wants mommy. But it doesn't happen enough.
So, help a mama out here. Does it get easier? Does the guilt ever get better? I need some reassurance.
