I feel like such a crap mum.
I just couldn't cope with my twins today. They're 20 months. Teething. Angry with me all day. No routine. One twin fell asleep they'd been up since early hours. Another refused to nap. Twin 1 slept hardly slept. Both have been overtired all day. I had to close the doors for 15 mins I just couldn't cope. When I went back in both were hysterical crying I didn't know where to start. I took them both and went for a ride in the car. I'm fine usually but they were both ill and teething and it's the time of the month. Twins are so intense and I need more support at times like this. I'm so angry that my parents aren't there for me. I know I'm not entitled to anything , I just really , really needed them today. And ever since I've become a mum my sister doesn't see me anymore. I know she's busy living her life and I'm happy for her but one day they will need me. Isn't that what family is for. I feel so sad.
DH is helpful and does what he can. I just want someone outside our family unit to chip in sometimes and offer something. No man is an island. Parents of multiples get zero financial help and I've had to leave work as we can't afford childcare.
