[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a newborn and 3.5 year old and am extremely unhappy with my life right now no childcare no school no family. Just chiming in as I’m reading about these happy families with all the help, smiles, money, and sunny dispositions. [/quote] You're so in the thick of it right now. Note how few posters there are with newborns! Why no school or childcare for your 3.5yo? I would have struggled tremendously if my toddler had been home full time when I had a newborn. [/quote] Agreed! That is the same age gap of my kids. I remember I (naively) took my oldest child out of daycare when the little one was born--the daycare was cool w/us taking a leave of absence for the time I was on maternity leave and saved our spot. Which is good, because that lasted 2 days until I sent him back to daycare. 3.5 is a hard age, with potty training, learning to communicate, learning to control emotions, etc. And newborns are just generally hard.[/quote]
