Just a sad Gal

[SugarBlossom]

Hi guys,

Just want to write for myself really to see if it will cheep me up a little

Lets see.....I have had a terrible tummy bug with lots of cramps and vomiting.

Feel like a single mum and a (pathetic failure) of a housewife.

DOn't know where "I" have gone, guess I need some me time (yeah right with a partner like mine!)

My ebay packages cost me heaps more to send than I quoted

Dying for a full nights sleep and am not willing to do contrlled crying.


Blahhhhhh, I generally just feel terrible Maybe my PND getting worse?

But thanks for listening

Jazz

Well I came I wrote and I still feel bad

Oh, Jazz, sounds like you're having a horrid day. Please know there are people out here in cyberspace thinking of you.

Awww honey, chin up. We all have bad days. Esp with PND. Sometimes you just feel so low you can't get any lower! Eeek about the tummy bug. It's been 'doing the rounds' lately. Just think it's only temporary and you will be able to eat and poo fine in no time! Lol! It sounds like you don't have much of a support system (partner?), do you get out much? Are you in Brisbane? (I know it's bloody hot here! Lol!) The sleep thing is a bummer. I'm still struggling to sleep too. And don't feel bad about not doing the controlled crying. Think of how your beautiful little boy knows that you are there for him, no matter what! He is just a gem, I betcha he is cheeky too!

As for the housewife thing, don't worry about it. You can only do what you can only do. Don't pay ANY attention to what anyone says about your house, it's your house and you can do what you like!

As for 'me' time, it's hard to find that time anymore hey. But I'm sure that 'you' aren't far away. Maybe you are on a holiday while you are adjusting. It's always hard adjusting to family life, it's such a shock to the system and no one prepares you for it. Please pm me if you want to chat, anytime. Look after yourself! ((((HUGS))))

PS. Sorry if you weren't looking for a reply, but I just had to help....hopefully I have.

I add my hugs! Hope you feel better soon.

Is there someone, if not your partner than grandma or Aunty etc, who can take bubs for a little while so you can have some you time?
I hope you get over your bug quickly!

[SugarBlossom]

Thanks guys, its so good to know that there are people that listen to me, it really helps.

I'm in darwin with no family...so that dosen't help eiether

Being a mum is a hard job but I am sure you are doing a great job and the absolute best that you can possibly do. Hope you are feeling happier soon.

My little boy was born 17/7/05 (2 days after your DS). Is your son teething or anything yet? My son cut another tooth tody so he how has 4 (almost 5 teeth)... feels like he has been teething forever.

If you ever want to chat feel free to pm me....

Bugger, wouldn't it be great if we could invent a cyberspace transporting device where you could let us babysit while you get your hair done or something nice?! Lol! Hmmm, maybe one day in the future! Until then, are you able to get a babysitter or day-care? Even for a few hours?

[SugarBlossom]

That is actually a good idea! I need a haircut...like most mums

Mum2will...yeah the little fella has 4 teeth! Isin't it horrible to watch them go thru that?! And wow, the boys birthdays are so close!

Here is another
We all have days if not weeks or months of feeling like this !
Isnt it terrible when one thing is bad enough but it just keeps snowballing

Your a great mama ! Dont forget it !!!! If your hubby cant see that or that your doing your best as a wife then maybe he needs the job for a day see how he goes then
I think they often think so differently from us they dont realise we are struggling etc.
Hope tomorrow is better for you
