[quote=Anonymous]I have 3 kids. When my second was born, I appreciated anyone holding the baby to give me a break. Even though baby was small, my back and shoulders hurt from holding a 10-20 pound baby all day. Just being able to sit with no children on me felt amazing. I remember feeling bad when guests would leave because I felt like I was sleeping with my eyes open while they were there. I was a total zombie with 2 kids under 2 and not getting sleep. When my third was born, I appreciated anyone who would take one of my older kids. My two older kids often fought so it was nice when they would take kids for a play date or outing. Luckily my kids had neighborhood friends they could go play with. I used to host a lot when I had just 2 kids so I didn’t feel so bad when others took them. Now I have a toddler and 2 kids in elementary. I try to carpool as much as possible. Can you offer to take twins on a stroller walk to give mom a small break?[/quote]
