I don’t have enough energy for her

[Needtodothebigshop]

My 3 year old Dd

Currently a stay at home mum, she’s just started nursery two mornings per week, she cries her eyes out each time and I think is quite a lot for the staff.
She’s bright and a fun girl and I adore her, but she’s a lot 🙈she just never stops and it’s exhausting. My mum says she can’t remember us being like this when younger and comparing her to friends kids, she’s very full on.
She takes a long time to sleep and doesn’t like to play alone. I just find the full on ness (not a word) too much.
Is this normal??

Is it just my child 🙈

Sounds like my DC.
And I was regularly cycling over 100 miles a week when I had her so not like I’m unfit but I can’t keep up with her.
My mum also says I was never that manic as a child. Maybe she’s just forgotten?
I work 4 days. Couldn’t be a SAHM.

My 2 year old is the same, I don't know where she gets the energy from!

I have a 3 year old and that is full of energy I tend to make sure I always have a plan for first thing in the morning for all of our sanities but it is full on. He does 3 full days of pre school now abs loves it. Hopefully your little one will settle in and it will be an easier time for all of you.

My 3 year old son is currently jumping up & down on the sofa 🤦‍♀️ They have far too much energy at this age - as far as I can tell. It is exhausting at times!

DS (now 5) was a lot like this. (Still is a bit though it's got better).

I couldn't stay in the house all day with him, we had to go out every day or he would go crazy.

Dd is more chilled though still becoming a handful as she approaches 2.

I think it's very variable among kids and is also partly just that age. People do forget what their kids were like.

I vividly remember being reduced to actual tears by mine at one point, at that age. He was being perfectly lovely and well behaved, but he did not stop talking ONCE for twelve hours straight and he just broke me

I have one of those (she is 6 now).

I worked 3 days a week and she went to nursery 5 days a week as soon as she got her free hours. She needed as much stimulation as possible.

She is a wonderful, bright, happy, funny child but is still utterly wild although very well behaved at school. Thankfully

I have one too... sorry he's now almost 8!

Nope, it's just what 3yo are like.

My son aged 4 was never like it. HOWEVER my 2 year old (nearly 3) daughter is WILD. Always playing, jumping, climbing and on the go. My husband and I don't understand how they are so wildly different. My daughter is getting better now, or I'm getting used to her... I'm not sure which!

Sounds normal to me. My 3 year old is the same and we have to go out every day to the park, for a walk etc and then often times again in the afternoon. Haven't needed a pram in ages

Try putting her in nursery for at least one more day.

It would probably be beneficial to her too.

My two aren't like that. I get tired and hide from them. But I wouldn't describe them how you did. It sounds like a lot!

What do you actually do with her? During the day?
