I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed. My dd is almost 2 and a half. Apart from two days wehn she is at nursery and I study and the activities for which we leave the house, I don't have any other routine and now I feel that I need one.
The time of day I find particularly difficult is from 7.30-9.30 in the morning. DH leaves for work at 7.30. I hate that I don't get a chance to get myself in order i.e. showering, dressing, breakfast before DH leaves for work and DD is demanding my full-on attention but getting up earlier is not an option since I am pregnant with #2.
She just won't play by herself or even watch TV in the morning.
I'm crap at housework too. I had very bad morning sickness from Jan through to March, so I have totally got out of the habit of getting stuff done around the house. I've slipped into a sort of lethargy that I hate. DH is fantastic and does way more than his fair share.
I feel like I need to kick-start life in Spring with a good routine for both DD and for me. Sometimes these wet days feel so long.
Can anyone help?
