Anyone else ever want to give them back??

[hodgepodge]

DS is 2. I love him - some of the time. Some of the time I would honestly like to give him back. Is this normal?

God yes. Afraid you are entering/in the terrible twos. It happens.

Currently ds is being a lovely little darling. However, a week ago when he was having issues at school and thus being a psycho devil child at home. yep I did think what on earth have i done.

That said wouldnt be without him its the behaviour that i want shot of.

Yes, shrink them down and put them back in...

DS is 2.9 and is a bloody nightmare most of the time, I hate being a parent right now

Well, we kept the receipt for dd (fertility treatment) but we have faced facts, we're probably way past the 30 day guarantee...

Dd was an amazing, non-sleeping baby a delightful sweet non-stop chattering toddler and is now a lovely, clever, funny affectionate 4 and a half year old. I don't think I have ever wanted to give her back - although I have hidden myself in the loo for some breathing space from the incessant chatter and dancing around and I have considered running away and leaving her with dh for a week day. Perfectly normal though.

Every night at about 6:45 until I hear her snoring!!

I reason that she is the way we made her, very intelligent, very independent, very cute but also very intelligent, very independent and very cheeky!

I have had that FUCK moment madamdeathstare usually once a day week! But I try to contain it into a pillow!

hodgepodge totally normal!

Today I was seriously contemplating shoving them both back inside warts and all, never mind they're both enormous - I don't care ! They were being little terrors ! So nice to read this thread, makes me feel vindicated. I was ready to resign as a parent earlier today & this evening hasn't been much better

I didnt have the terrible twos on DS1, but now at 5 he's changed - most of the time I cant stand him and dread spending any time with him.

Snowed in yesterday so missed a day off school - nightmare!

DS2 (19m) is ok but he is really naughty and you cant take yr eyes off him for a second.

Both me and hubby sang "All I want for Christmas is a childfree one!!!!"

To be honest not enjoying them at all.

Don't worry, bacon. Not long before they are stroppy teenagers.

Ah good to know it's not just me - I do love him VERY much when he's asleep - but he's been freakin' useless at that until the last couple of months (and even now doesn't go through every night.)

I have the FUCK moment at least once a day - sometimes a lot more! Have to say it's not helped by fact husband is away in the week and I've given up my full-time job to work from home and look after him... I think I'm just not a natural mother - doing long days at a high-pressure job was a doddle compared to the morning with him stretching endlessly before me!

Having said that he is currently being very cute and has just picked up a torch, some rice krispies and a small wooden mouse, waved at me and said 'Bye Bye Mum, going to shop to buy biscuit'...

Can't get dd1 (3) to nursery tomorrow. I may just have to lock myself outside in the snow.
