I have 2 toddlers, 2.5 and 16 mo. we have no family or friends support nearby and though my husband does his best to help I do most of it on my own - like many many women. I was rushing this morning and bashed the back of my car on the garden wall - i even have rear parking sensors! husband went ballistic - i damaged his car earlier in the year. i get really stressed with 2 mithering around my feet and trying to get to nursey. we still don't sleep well and i get little tiime to myself and feel stressed a lot of the time.

Your husband needs to do more than his best. I scratched the car coming onto our front garden. DH would never dare criticise me for that, your's needs to do a bit more to help.

Engaging DH to help more...very important to do it practically and to explain/talk through practical things he can do (rather than just "help more")...husbands respond best (in my own humble and wish-I-helped-more experience) when asked to do specific things at specific times - and probably in very specific ways - sorry!Smile
