Been lone parent to a toddler for five months. I work part time, i come home and the only sound is my constant commentary and question asking "where are your shoes, yes that's right, oh you've got an itchy arm blah blah blah".
Bedtime routine lasts from 7 to half 8, so even if someone did want to visit I'll be upstairs for most of it.
Have asked mum to come round for an hour a week so I can go to gym or something. But she's not keen cos her husband will be lonely. I know it's not her problem but bloody hell I could use some support.
I had a shit day at work and realised there was no one to tell, no hugs or telling me it'll be okay. I was coping well but this realisation has just made me feel horribly alone.
Just a rant really.
