I don't know where to go from here. I have a 2 yo DS and a 4 mo DD. My DS had awful reflux and was a very unsettled baby who didn't sleep more than 2 hours until he was 7 months old. We always knew we would have children close together as I have a kidney condition and can't wait. I honestly thought I'd have an 'easy baby' 2nd time around. But I'm really struggling as my DD has cows milk allergy and reflux too. She's all over the place. Hardly feeding, screaming, wants holding etc. There's no routine which I'm desperate for to give my life some order and so I can look after my son properly. I feel like a terrible Mum who can't hold it together for her children. I spend most days anxious about what's coming next, crying or screaming at my little boy. I keep loosing it and kick walls/smash things on work surfaces. I just don't have the mental strength to do this. My DS goes to nursery 2 days a week but I don't have any family nearby and my Mum would come but she's looking after my Nan who is basically dying. I've asked friends but everyone is busy or can only spare a couple of hours here and there. I don't know how to survive this and feel on the brink.
