I am Overwhelmed.....

I think you have to make a decision here. What is the most important to you.

I've heard it over and over again, especially from my mother -- "Being a mother isn't easy." You, on the other hand, also have to maintain a career. That should something of the next level. You'll be responsible for a lot of things so I take that you have a good grip of your time. A Mother's life isn't easy, as far as I know. My mom worked for several jobs just to raise us. I'm guessing you're also willing to do anything for your child.

mothers are superwoman and that's overwhelming. we can do multitasking and most people are amazed how you can be a working mom, a full time wife and 24/7 mom. mommies should not get sick and never get tired but at some point our powers run out too and we need to recharge. the love of our family keeps us going and everydayis another bright day for us. waking each morning in your husbands arms and a smile, kisses and hugs from your little one. that's overwhelming indeed! cheers to us moms!

I know how you're feeling 'cause more often than not I feel the same way. It's like juggling your responsibilities and once you drop something off, everything else seem to fall apart. It's hard to stay focused and take on that much responsibility. and can really put you off your game. All I can say though is the best way to move forward and do the things you're supposed to do is to think of the reasons why you're doing them.It's what motivates me. Also, don't forget to give yourself some time off and just be you, and relax a bit. Just don't take everything too seriously. With all your responsibilities, you should have someone you can also count on and talk to. Share the load just by talking to someone who listens. Never give up. And don't forget to smile.

A proud working mom and wife, aren't you? Mothers are indeed the light of the home. Did I said it right? Well, so glad that you are happy of everything you do to and for your family. Congratulations!

Being a mother, especially a workingn mother can sometimes become hectic as we are the ones who run the household its like having 2 full time jobs. You need to take the time to relax and spend some time for yourself.

Sounds like you really have a lot to deal with every day! Life can be so busy, demanding and downright draining at times, you need to remember to take a little time out each day to relax and focus on yourself. You are important in the eqaution of your situation and you need to be the very best you can be for your family,job and yourself. Take time out to sort out the important things that need doing. Do them early, every day and then deal with everything in as calm a manner as possible. Delegate as much as you need to to other co-workers,family members etc.This way, you will have a few less tasks to do in your busy day.Always keep a calm place in your mind where you can go to when you need to pray, relax or refocus. Life is in interesting journey, enjoy it! :)

I think you can discuss it with your husband about it. If you think your hubby has enough salary to cover expenses without you having to work for a living. What do you think about it?

Your responsibilities as a mother would surely include interacting with your kids I guess. For more interaction you could do that during weekends. Most women these days have to juggle between all these responsibilities and with a bit of organising it can be handled.

Well, I don't know what to say about it ABCL. Today i saw a entertainment show named "Day day up", which involved a debate about the tireness of male and female. Even though neither of them won the debate, to my mind, i think women like you are more tire than men. There is no denying that men have more pressure than women. But i don't think it can be the excuse of us for avoiding housework. So ABC, you can ask your husband to give you a hand on chores. And you deserve it. Don't spoil men, for the sake of god!

I think we all feel overwhelmed at times! The key is to prioritize and realize that if you don't do something it will be ok. Go to bed with the dishes in the sink, or for once leave your work at work. I know it's hard to do but you have to remember to stop and breath once in awhile. I hope you feel less overwhlemed soon.

ABCL - that is the state of present day women. they have more responsibilities in home and also office. amidst all this we must allocate time for children also. I understand you are very happy with all the responsibilities as mother, career woman. enjoy and do it.

Being a mother is a noble incomparable profession. However, a mother an a career woman could be overwhelming and it if there is no intervention it will break you life cycle. I think you need a break to give your self a chance to freshen up and enjoy life. We sometimes need individual space though social reponsiblity will not be compromised. Your role is wonderful, being a monther to your child/children is a gift. Take a look at your kids sometimes and think of them when they grow up of who will they become and that is all because of you as a mother who guide then and raised them well.

Don't be overwhelmed by the work responsibilities and lack of time you spend with the kids. It is not the amount of time but the quality time that you share with them. It is difficult to combine a career with being a mother. You just need to budget the time properly in order to have sometime for yourself and the family. I did just that for 20 years of my life. I became an expert at multi-tasking. The worst part is when I have to report to the office on Sundays and holidays during the peak season of production. Make your kids understand that you are working for their own benefit.

As parents, we can really be overwhelmed by our responsibilities especially career moms like you. Juggling the things you do is definitely a big challenge. There's really no easy way to do all those things. Why not try making some sort of "game plan." I mean, organize the things you do, allot a particular time to it or even remove some of those things that aren't really necessary or could be put off some other time. This might help give you more free time to spend with your kids.

Responsibilities can overpower us sometimes. GO to a quiet place sit down and do some deep breathing. It will help you relax and at the same time clear your mind enough for you to recollect your thoughts so that stress wont get to you. Take it easy!
