I miss my ds

Memories came up on my phone of a holiday we (DH, ds and I) took three years ago. I was pregnant, ds was two and it was one of the last times we were together.

Life has gone downhill since then. I really miss my ds. I have barely spent any time with just him and when I do it’s snatched and hurried, I’m spread too thin, life is chaotic and loud and unbearable.

Here for a gentle handhold - this is mum guilt and it never ends.
You just have to do your best and make everything count.
its January maybe it’s time to re evaluate and look at managing time differently.
When children start nursery there is a huge feeling of loss - they are in an institution, there’s other influences in their life and it feels hard to ‘share’.

Can you explain a bit more? Are you seperated from your DH, do you live with DS or have visitation with him? Why is life chaotic, loud and unbearable?
