fed up of dd2 - she's one and has developmental delay and can only just sit up. She also has a very high-need personality and screams all day and wakes all night. dd1 - 2 1/2 - seems to be weeing and pooing anywhere but the potty today; always up to mischief like bringing in a bucket of compost from the garden and scattering it on the carpet. The only thing keeping me going is that they both have a nap at the same time - except today dd1 has decided she's not sleeping. On a good day I can make lunch and dinner and get a load of washing on the line. My bathroom stinks, my carpets are filthy but I can't do a thing. I spend all night up and down the stairs with DD2 and they only thing dH and I manage is to restore the kitchen to a state of hygiene every day. On a good day we sit down at around 10.30pm and watch an hour of tv together. Is this what motherhood is really about?
