I really hate myself at the moment and feel like im tearing my family apart. I've 2 boys 7 and 3 and a girl 5months, my ds,s are quite lively and sometimes have me demented, my dd wakes in the night for a feed and this is making me so tired. I feel this tiredness and the day to day organising of the house and money worries are all really getting on top. Have asked Husband if he'll help in the night but he refuses and makes me feel useless for having to ask in the first place. Im losing my temper more and more with him in front of the kids and i hate myself for putting my kids through this. If only i have a good nights sleep. Sorry if this is long have never done this before, been building this up as im so ashamed to talk to anyone who knows me as most of my friends wouldnt dream of shouting and carrying on in front of there kids.

Yes they would, every one looses it with dc's at some point, and then hates themself after.

What concerns me is your dh won't help you!Why on earth not? They are his kids too. He has to help, you can't possibly do it all. Is your dd ff?. If so why can't he do one night with her? My dp used to take ds into another room at weekends to give me a decent nights sleep. IMO your dh is the one with the problem not you!
