i am feeling an utter failure at the mothering business. right now i cannot stand dd1, she is pushing all my buttons and driving me insane. today she refused to nap (she's 2.5) and then proceded to have a monster tantrum at 6.30. she was hysterical and i shouted at her really violently. i couldnt help it. dd2 gets to grab the boob or some sleep whenever she can, and i feel that at 4 months she is already severely shortchanged... she would love some routine, and i cant give it to her. i have given up trying to deny dd1 her peppa bloody pig dvds, and now it's pretty much on all day. the weather sucks, and my hair is greasy.
this is not how i thought motherhood would be. that's not how i thought i would be. am really .
i dont really need answers, just a sympathetic emoticon will do....
