I’ve noticed it more since I had children, but I just find there’s always something to worry about or do.

always have to do something for my young children, pick them up from nursery, make dinner, bath time, bed time, you get it.

go to work and do well there, and I just can’t be bothered so my mental energy to do this is draining.

battle another illness because of what the kids bring home from nursery

feel trapped in my job because of the flexibility and not feeling I can start somewhere new because of the constant nursery bugs

trying to maintain relationship with my husband

try to keep myself looking presentable

lose baby weight and fail , if I can even call it baby weight anymore

keep house looking nice and clean

make dinner etc etc etc

I feel like there’s just always something to do, all the time, and I’m fed up with it, I feel trapped, down. I don’t want to sound ungrateful as I love my children so much and I love being with them.

does anyone else feel like this?

Yes, completely. You aren’t alone in feeling this.

Things that helped:

Batch cooking
Buying a peloton - I cannot find time to go to the gym so I do live workouts at home
