someone tell me this is normal...

i have DD1(3) running around crying, snotting and having a fit every 2 minutes cause she's wanting different dress ups on. She is fighting with my DSis(6) the house is upside down and I got my period today so I'm crampy as hell. And DD2 (7 weeks) will not shh, constant whinging when I haven't got hold of her. She's knackered bit keeps fighting it and will not sleep!!!!

I've done no housework, my ironing pile is starting to resemble a skyscraper... And I haven't eaten, or out a brush through my hair, I brushed my teeth about 20 mins ago as haven't had time this morning.

WIBU to pretend I am asleep for the remainder of the afternoon...?

if you can manage to pretend to be asleep and get away with it, go for it!

otherwise, bollocks to everything. cope with what you have to, keep the kids fed, safe etc, leave the rest for another day. x

I second the bollocks to everything. Do the absolute minimum!
Any friends or relatives locally who could make you a cuppa and referee the older ones for 5 mins?

We all have had days like this. Two tiny dcs is hardcore and i say that as mum of 4. Try and ignore the housework, stick cbeebies abd chill in here. X

tak1ing you definitely win! I've stuck big hero 6 on, and the 3 of them have finally shut up... I may have also just received an asos delivery with 5 dresses I'm desperate to try on Grin
