Emotional

My hormones are so crazy right now, I feel extremely sad. I'm expecting my second baby on August 23rd and my husband hasn't really been much of an emotional support. I've had horrible nausea for the past two days where I'm just in bed or all my attention is to my one year old. I have no motivation at all, I just hope it goes away soon!

I get it I have a crazy 15 month old who has decided the only thing too high to get on top of is my fridge, everything else is now within his grasp we just moved to a new city and instead of having a yard for my dog I'm back to walking him 3x a day either while the toddler is sleeping or with him when it's literally freezing outside the only time in not nauseous is when I'm laying down which isn't for very long before I have to go pull my son off of things, and my husband tries to be helpful when he's home but is only helpful enough to catch up on everything that I don't get done during the day before I have to go back to taking care of our son....but as for ur 1year old not walking invest in a good baby carrier my lilliebaby has been a lifesaver so I can wear mine like a back pack and get stuff done still when I feel good but he just wants held

Same here. Second time mom and i feel so terrible from fatigue and nausea. My son turns two this month but he is such a handful, and my husband doesn't help much since he works, and when he's home he's too tired or busy. Luckily i have my mom and siblings around to help me out but i know these next 8 months are going to be hell

At least you have someone who helps you! I don't have anyone it's just me alone with my son all day long & my husband does the same to me. I feel you on that one! I have 7 months until my second baby gets here and I'm stressing out so bad. My son turned one last month and he's a handful as well. He doesn't want to walk at all it's driving me crazy and I seriously can't keep holding him everywhere I go, he's so heavy!

Yes! I feel so dizzy, I try to stand up slow when I get out of bed. Awe how far along are you? Oh man twins! How is it having twins? Oh girl same here, I feel like I wasted my day when I lay in bed because of my nausea.

I totally get what you are feeling. I get into a mood where I don't want anyone around me. It's really hard when I'm a SAHM to my almost 18 month old. My husband works a lot and wants to rest when he gets home,so I don't really get a break until she sleeps.

Exactly no break until they sleep! My one year old naps for like 10 minutes sometimes which I don't get that much done. It would be awesome if my husband helped just a little since my son doesn't want to walk yet, he's getting so heavy & I was told not to pick anything heavy up. Being a SAHM is frustrating at times.
