Does anyone else feel like its groundhog day everyday?? DS1 is a paraplegic and we are always up at the hospital for many different appointment at the time. DS2 is a prem and still in hospital yet to come home and will be requiring many appointment just like DS1 at hospital.

I just feel like everyday is groundhog day! If I'm not at hospital for an appointment or to see DS2 I'm at home and thats no rest as DH doesnt do much to help out unless its outside work.

I mentioned this to DH and told him I think Im going crazy and his reply was "What did you think having children would be like?" and then he trys to compare it to other stay at home mums but forgets their children are normal healthy kids with their biggest worry being the cold or a stumbed toe!

Am I normal to feel like this or am I being selfish? Does anyone else feel like this???

Not selfish.... I wouldn't say your DH is either.. Is his job demanding I know my dh would like to help more but can't.. How is your dh also coping with the kids?????

He needs to step into your shoes for a week and see what it's like..
