I feel like im going to go mad!

As the title says I feel like im going to go mad if I have to spend any more time in my week hanging out with 2 yr olds. Im a sahm and we tend to see friends every day or most days who have children the same age as my 2.2 yr old. Im 22 wks pregnant and I feel like like my whole psyche and being has been drained of energy and patience. I find they are all going through different phases at different times and while my DD is going through a relatively sociable phase the others aren't. So my DD is intent on forcing herself on them for cuddles and kisses and hand holding while the others are screaming at her to go away and not touch them. I spend the whole time telling her to listen to what they are saying and when they say stop they mean they don't want to be touched but she doesn't get it and gets even more aggressive towards them pulling their clothes and pushing into them. Apart from her obnoxious behaviour at home with me with the constant demands of I want! I want! the whole time its enough to send a person completely mad! Im just so tired and fed up with how difficult this age is and getting it of my chest :-(

In this situation, I'd probably give the toddler socialising a miss for a few weeks, tbh.

It won't do your DD any harm, so unless you'll go nuts without adult company, just explain to your friends and avoid the stressful situation.

Make sure to get out of the house though - it's always worse when you're stuck indoors!
