[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I get that you're upset about your mother's visa issues, but it is true that it's not really that challenging to manage two kids without help. That's kind of what having two kids is all about! My mother was sick when my first child was born and had died by the time I had my second, so I didn't have much help either time. My husband stayed home 2 weeks the first time around and probably 2 days the second time around. My older child stayed in daycare, which helped a ton, but I was doing all the cooking etc, and we managed just fine. We could have paid for other help but I never really understood the point if you're trying to BF. The keys for me were just simple meals, cleaning service, low expectations for everything. Good luck.[/quote] Yes it is challenging having two small kids with no help. You cannot relate to that because your oldest child was in daycare...that's help. Op if you have a mothers helper you'll be fine. Tired, but fine. I'm sorry that your mother won't be able to visit. Signed, 2 Kids- 20 months apart, No nanny, babysitter, daycare, family, or anything else. [/quote]
