Hoping for some insight here.
Single Mum (EX-DH walked out when DTs were a few months old and sees them sporadically). I work a busy job to keep a roof over our heads and DTs are due to start preschool in the new year.
DTs are 2 and it feels like the moment they turned 2 everything got so much harder! Tantrums, not sharing toys, pushing, general competing for my sole attention...
They have beautiful moments where they play, cuddle and laugh together... but outside of that everything is just exhausting! Leaving the house is like a military exercise and both twins run in opposite directions with no fear.
Friends who have 2 or more children often say "Oh this is what I did with mine"... but having two and different ages, and in most cases a second parent to help... feels like a world apart.
Twin parents; what age did your twins begin to get easier? Do you think preschool might help?
Yours,
A tired and weary Mum
