feeling lonely and worn to the ground!

[mummylydz25]

I'm 21 I have 2 amazing daughters age 2 & 4. I love them so much and would never change having them. They complete me.
They have different dads. Eldest doesn't see her dad. I do see my youngest dad but he works all hours and has other children so it's hardly ever so I'm alone with the kids 90% of the time. I do everything for them from the second they get up till the minUte they go to bed. At night I sit alone and I'm worn out from motherly duties. I don't have many friends we all drifted apart. My family work full time and live on the other side of town so don't have much of a relationship with them. I miss adult interaction. I don't know who I am anymore. I can't even go to the toilet in pieace lol. Sorry too much info! I feel so empty and drained. Does anyone feel like this?? :( x

It gets easier.

They get older and less demanding. They start nursery and school, giving you at least a couple of hours a day to yourself.

Do you go to toddler / play groups/ ? There are probably other folks feeling exactly the same that would like someone to just go for a cup of coffee with. Try to get out the house as much as possible, if your out, even just at the park or something them being in alone in the evening doesn't seem as bad.

Oh honey, I feel your pain, and you so young, big cyber hugs coming your way from me! I can promise it DOES get easier as they get older. My two are 4 and 7 and tonight I was just trying to enjoy a glass of wine in peace but they kept sending paper aeroplane messages down the stairs saying "lufou mummy" and no matter how down or lonely you feel, that is enough to make you feel like you need nothing else (make sure you teach them to make awesome paper aeroplanes!) that is important and loneliness is nothing to worry about right now. Honestly, trust in yourself and in fate, one day your prince will come, but until then you have gorgeous girls to make you realise that life is good. Really good. And come on here for support, there's always someone listening xxxxxxx

Thanks guy's for your kind words.
The paper aeroplane story made me laugh. They're never a dull moment. It's the hardest job but the most rewarding. It tests and wakes up every emotion possible! Xxx

You are not alone. I am much older then you are, but I fell exactly the same.
I have 3 daughters, the youngest is 4 months old. Like you I am all on my own, my family dose not even live in this country.
On top of everything else, I am going through a court process with the dad of my youngest daughter and do not have a layer as I cant afford one. So you can imagine.....

Our kids are worth all the pain and sacrifices we make for them. For me personalty is my faith and my kids who are keep me going. It dose seems that this situation is just going on for ever, but it will get better. You are young and doing a brilliant job looking after your girls.
The smile on our kids face is priceless.
I totally agree with you when you said about not even be able to go to the toilet in peace!!! LOL
I AM EXACTLY THE SAME!!!! This happens to me everyday.

Concentrate on your kids and enjoy every moment.

Lots of love from another single mother.
