[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think a lot of the supportive advice here is good, but looking back at OPs original title, the word that stands out for me is "regret". I was never particularly eager to be a mother, and I also don't enjoy and am not good at a lot of that traditional mom stuff. But I have never regretted doing it. This isn't meant to be a dig on OP. But I hope the regret comes from the burden of expectations you, and your husband, have placed on you. You say you love your kids, that is what is most important. Maybe some therapy, both on your own and with your husband, can help you adjust your expectations to find the joy in your style of parenting.[/quote] Sometimes women use too colorful emotional language. Hard to tell if she's just tired and doesn't want to keep up with the Joneses or if she really regrets her life.[/quote]
