Hello everyone. My baby is 12wks old and I feel like i'm doing an awful job :-( I am a single parent and have been from the very start. People keep telling me it will get easier .. i hope that is true. I don't really have a support network, don't get me wrong I have great friends who will watch him for an hour or 2 but I think I just need sometime to myself to think before I go crazy. I feel as if I am on high alert every minute of every day, I also feel i'm rushing everything, like there's no time to do anything and I just cannot relax. I just want to enjoy my baby as this time is never going to come back. Sometimes i'm just so tired I don't even want to speak to anyone and feel like i'm not interacting with him properly so I AM missing this moment with my baby which I will never get back :-( Thanks for listening/Reading.
