Why is motherhood so stressful sometimes?
Yes, and there is no shame in putting your children in daycare. Daycares today are much better than they used to be and many kids will often come out smarter and better prepared for school than they would be if raised by the over-worked "servant-mom".
Can't help you there because I don't have children. No regrets.
Thanks Old Expresario and MummyTales. I have a nanny who cares for them at home and for one day a week the older child, 33months now goes to nursery. It just is sometimes hard to figure out if you are doing it right with only 16 months between the two, there's not much to go on in terms of experience.It's always been trying out what works best with the framework and how I would like them to grow up.
It IS absolutely stressful! You are completely responsible for these little beautiful people, trying to instill good morals and behaviour, all the while working, running a household and maybe getting time to have a shower! You are so normal, especially working full time.
I am on leave right now but going back in Nov. With my first I went back to work when he was 2 months old. You are doing great :).
Here are some common causes of stress, with resources for help. Why Is Motherhood Stressful?
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
