Ever been so exhausted?

Question

I have been working 60-70 hour weeks, overnights. So sometimes 6-6am, 10-6am, 11-7am, 11-11am.... I do not make much money an hour.... Keep that in mind. I cannot afford a babysitter (I have a 2 1/2 year old) anymore than the hours I'm at work so I can't afford to pay someone the 8-12 hours I work PLUS time to sleep so I often go without sleep. My husband works on the road so is home a few days a month. Ughhhh I just want to give up!! Anyone else feel my pain haha? How do you deal?

Main reason for posting here, does anyone know the requirements for getting help with daycare? I think I'm right on the border for what I make....

Answer

I'm going through my second pregnancy alone. I have twins, I work one full time job and one part time job and most of the time I'm so damn tired I could cry. I was so sore after the work I did yesterday I could barely get out of bed this morning. And my husband might or might not be back in time for the birth. So yes, I 100% feel your pain. Being an adult sucks.

Answer

Possibly ask for a shift change temporarily. I worked swing shift while I was pregnant, and towards the end it got too hard on me and my employer agreed to switch me to days for quite some time....  
But keep at it, your hard work will pay off.

Answer

Currently pregnant and was pulling 8p-8 or 10am shifts

I caved and asked for different hours, became to hard on me.

Answer

Go to the state office (DHS) and get set up for state pay :)
