The tough days are tough but in years to come its the good days that you remember.

Try having a new baby, with three other children under 6, moved to a new locale where you know no-one while your husband still lives in the city you once knew for the next six months till he can join you at the new house. No TV or radio, no phones at all, and very little in the way of cooking appliances. Then tell me how hard done by you are.

Sambi, you are lucky that your husband supports you as much as he does. Sadly not all give much support at all.
A new baby basically turns your life upside down until a routine is gradually established which may not work as a timetable. Routine goes out the window if baby is unwell for any reason.
People need to be more thoughtful before being critical

I feel you sister! Any trolls should be ignored- they clearly have nothing better to do!

Amen sister we are all right there but often keep it inside

She just needs to vent then feel a bit better (I hope)

Parenting is the hardest and most challenging job we will have have/do. Posts like this just share the raw and honest world that is parenting and we should share this side more. Rather than gloss over, or share only the good stuff, if we were more real with each other, we’d all feel more supported rather than living up to an unreal expectation of what we think we should be.

I feel for this mum as it is not easy to raise children it is a very hard job and my advise is to get support and help from family members when needed and have a break

She’s just telling it as she sees it. Sometimes it is hard to cope.

Oh bless you. Wishing you a brighter, happier and more organised day tomorrow,

This is me. But a lot. I often feel like the hard days well and truly outnumber the good days, particularly when our “behaviourally challenged” child (a.k.a. the devil) is at her finest. My husband is the most amazing man and gives me so much support with keeping the home in order but I feel like a failure most of the time! I know my beloved and our Punks love me, regardless of how many times I screw it up, but I hope one day soon I can finally get on top of it all and do better for them!

Yep, this post is raw and very real. When I was in the thick of it a few years ago it was like that. Some days i just could not cope. What helped me get through bad days was knowing that before long whatever phase I was in would be over. To get through parenting You need Good friends who you can laugh with, vigorous exercise ( if you can find a gym with a great crèche) and a big glass of wine every now and then helps too ????

It never fails to amaze me how trolls like to take people down. Let her have her rant and she’ll move on tomorrow.

Then the husband comes home and whinges why nothing is done, typical!

I can definitely relate and I only have one.

It’s refreshing to hear it’s not easy for everyone I always feel behind in the house work.

Yep, totally relate to what this mum is saying. Luckily they are only bad days, tomorrow is often better
