[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] This may not apply to you, but the SAHM parents (men and women) who can't seem to get it together are usually dealing with depression, anxiety, ADHD, or something of that nature. I speak from personal experience and observation of others.[/quote] This applies to me too. Having a child completely overwhelmed me and I couldn’t do both. We waited to have enough kid because we couldn’t juggle and due to secondary infertility we weren’t able to. I’m watching all my cousins having babies and working and not stressed at all. They probably are but not falling apart like I did. [/quote] Every single mom with young babies or children, working or SAH, is overwhelmed to some degree. The ones that say they aren't are lying. The act of taking care of young children who need so much of our attention is emotional and physically draining if you are putting any care or thought into it. Some think they are a total mess, and look pretty damn good from the outside looking in. Some feel like they look spectacular and maybe aren't quite as pulled together as they think. Some feel guilt that they don't love every single moment of baby classes and changing diapers. Some feel guilt that they travel for work and miss out on milestones or school events. Can we just admit we are ALL struggling to make the best out of these years and support each other the best we can?[/quote]
