So I have spent the last two weeks relentlessly caring for two sick children, pretty much alone with no help. This afternoon it has finally got me. I have a fever of 39 and pretty sure I have a chest infection I am feeling dreadful. I am a Sahm which is why most ot the care falls to me.
However it seems to be getting worse and now outside my husband's working hours I'm still doing the majority for our two children one toddler and one older tween.
Yesterday my husband sprang on me this night out with his friends. I did say to him im absolutely exhausted and could do with some help and he promised he wouldnt leave until 8pm so he could put the toddler to bed. So just now at 6pm I say that I need paracetamol we do not have any he huffs for god sake and storms off to the shop two minutes away, comes back and says bye. I say hold on please help with bedtime im feeling awful and he just leaves.
In context he is out as a minimum 2 x a week with friends and travels also with work weeks at a time so half a month I am alone and then often he is out nearly half the week. I would never leave him like that. I feel sad and disappointed.
