Hanging on

[catap5]

I feel like a crap mum. I have toddler twins and I can't wait until they start school. I would have loved to afford childcare but for £100 a day, it was unaffordable. I am 2 years in and I'm hanging on.

I was beginning to realise that being a good mother meant looking after myself after I realised I didn't want to stay at home. I'm bored and not interested in being at home anymore.

It was lovely for the first 1.5 years but they are really hard work now and I need help.

This was before the coronavirus hit and I'm just gutted now. I know everyone's gutted. We are lucky my husband is able to work from home but I was on my knees before all of this.

Just a moan and I feel like a crap mum.

Yep- I was absolutely hanging out to send mine to nursery and now with coronavirus it is so hard not knowing when we can get our lives back! You are not alone- it is quite draining and has been a long time when you factor in the (usually not straight forward) pregnancy too. Hope you get to carve out some head space for you soon.
