So hard being a Mom

Yes I know exactly how you feel. I have four kids ages 9,4,3,2 and my husband works long hours so I stay at home as well. I love my kids also but there are days I feel like screaming. My three year old sons is a special needs child so I am faced with many challenges every day. I wish sometimes that my husband didnt work such long hours but I know he does it for us so I definitly dont complain. If you ever need to talk or just vent then send me a message because I can relate to your situation and its nice to talk to others who can understand where I am coming from.

I had my oldest child when I was 18, and my second when I was 22 just like you. I am now 28 and both my boyfriend and I work to support our kids. He works full time and I work part time while the kids are in school. I know how you are feeling, I love my kids so much but sometimes I am just overwhelmed by everything. My boyfriends work went out on strike several months ago and now he is working at a job that pays half of what he was getting before. Our lives in the last few months have been exteremly stressful.

I feel the same way. I had my daughter when I was 17. I am 30 now. I just had a baby boy in Aug. 2006. So, this time around it is so different. I appreciate it more now that I am older. I am a SAHM now and it is VERY hard. I can't even go to the bathroom without my son in there w/ me. I love my kids very much and wouldn't trade them for anything but, you're right.."where did my life go?" So, yes I understand how you are feeling and there are millions of other women that feel the same way. Take care~M
