Firstly, I am extremely grateful to have two healthy children. I have a 17 month old and a 5 week old.
I am finding life so hard right now. I am in tier 3, meaning I can't meet up with anyone. I know I can meet up with one other person outside... but it is constantly raining and and cold that I don't feel comfortable taking my newborn in it as she would be in the sling.
The days are so long (husband is at work 7-6). My newborn can't be put down for more than 2 minutes without crying so she lives in the sling. I feel so guilty on my toddler as we can't go out to clubs or anything. We can't afford nursery so she doesn't see any other children.
I just wake up and just dread the day ahead. My newborn is obviously up throughout the night so it is just 24/7.
I don't have hardly any friends in the city I live as I moved to my husbands city when I married him.
I don't have any family (my parents have passed away) and my sister lives two hours away. I have a bubble with my mother in law (since the rules changed and I can form a bubble with her as I have a child under one) but she works full time so am on my own anyway during the week.
Anyone else just absolutely fed up with everything atm? ☹
