[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lower your expectations. [/quote] This! Between 0 and 1 kid- sure this might be your perspective. But, come on, you are a veteran here. Your expectations must be way too high. I try not to think of my life before kids EVER and focus entirely on the situation at hand which is, in my case, insane as I still have a toddler along with the preschooler. The person that said to compartamentalize is spot-on. Work out kicked ass = awesome kick ass workout day. Sex with DH = freaking miracle and awesome relationship day! Kids were cute and/or brought me to tears from love/funniness/whatever = awesome mom day! Boss is on vacation so I can get everything done far better = awesome work day! That way, you basically have more awesomeness than not. Again, lower your expectations. Tantamount to when showering was an accomplishment with your first about 4 weeks in.[/quote]
