Hi guys! I'm really struggling to cope at the moment. I Have a 14 weeks old baby and a three year old son. All I seem to do is shout at him. I feel so awful, before the baby came along I loved having days off with him but now I just can't cope. I feel like I don't have the time to enjoy both of my children. I will be feeding the baby and my son will want a cuddle but I can't, I'm feeding so he will go off and be naughty and I'll loose my temper. Really he just wanted a cuddle. my partner works nights and my son hasn't ever slept very well and will always come in with me half way through the night but sometimes he won't go back to sleep then the next day he's terrible. My fuse is so sort. I'm not fun for him at all anymore, I feel like I just push him away. I'm a terrible mother. Honestly I'm really struggling. I would never regret having my baby but I do miss the days so much of when it was me and my son. I'm so lost and not the person I use to be.
