Hi,
I don't know where to start, but I have and carry a huge sense of guilt with me a lot. We have three children, our daughter came along when our youngest had not long turned 4. She wasn't planned and it was a big shock, when the realisation came in that we'd have three children. To be honest I find it really hard work, I feel constantly stressed, tired and feel that I can never spread my time evenly with all three. My daughter who is 1, is incredibly clingy, always wants to be with me, if I'm not playing/entertaining her she cries, so most of the time I don't feel that I'm giving my older children the attention they deserve. My husband says I need to learn to allow our daughter to play and spend short times without me and to allow her to explore her surroundings, but I always cave in and give into her whinging, I actually have problems with my wrists, as I hold her a lot. Does it get easier? Does the guilt gradually go?
