You are a wonderful mother. Feeling in over your head at this new stage is totally normal! Let's thank Nature for giving you a father who can come and help out, because you deserve only GOOD things from the universe. No, make that GREAT THINGS. Oh, zoot, this title breaks my heart.

How my Mum put up with us both I'll never know! When I was 8 my cousin Tori arrived and My Mum would look after her during the holidays while my auntie worked part time (so then she had three of us to look after) I guess it wasn't so bad because it was 1 part time and 2 with me being that bit older I could keep up with Tori if she ran off. Then in 2000 my cousin Joey arrived by which point Tori was 6ish and me and rich were old enough that we could pick Joey up if ran off rather than just grabbing by the wrist. My Mum, and My Aunt (and my other two aunts who had two kids) rock my socks how they manage to put up with us. Any Mum who handles 3 or more kids gets a massive gold star in my book!!! You are amazing! Me and my brother are 28 months apart. How my Mum put up with us both I’ll never know!

After she was born and my mom and dad left...I suprised myself and did much better than I thought I would. I kind of played it by ear, or whatever, did a lot of improvising and learned while I went along. You can do it Zoot!

I think you should cut yourself a break and accept all the help you can get... I have never had to do the more than one child thing due to my craptucular uterus (I have stage 4 endo and polycystic ovarian syndrome, though we are trying *fingers crossed*) but I am sure it is difficult, but it will all work out. *Hugs* Hi!

I feel your pain!! But you know what? You can do it. There may be days you can't bear to leave the house and that's okay. In the beginning, I was going to do it all-dishes, laundry, clean (well, clean enough) house. Now at the end of the day if we are all in one piece I consider it a major achievement.

It's a case of 1+1 does NOT equal 2. Because two kids is three times harder than one. Be glad AndyZ isn't mobile and that they're not twins (I don't know how moms of multiples do it). A friend had her fourth when her oldest was in first grade. I watched (and tried to help), but I still couldn't figure out how she did it. I know her littlest two stayed in the stroller a lot more than mine, as a result they're quieter now (read, better behaved) when they're in the stroller. Hang in there, you’ll figure it out.
