Basically my DS was really unwell last month and in hospital, he was well for about a week and then came down with Bronchiolitis. This started about last Sunday/Monday so it’s been about a week. I’m really struggling to cope. He’s crying all the time, being really clingy, not drinking his milk, not eating what I cook for him, doesn’t want to play, doesn’t want to be in one place for too long. I know he’s ill but I don’t know how much more of being constantly cried and screamed at I can take. I’m a single Mum so don’t have a partner around to help and my DM just makes me feel worse sometimes and only helps on her terms, if she doesn’t feel like helping and I ask I need to ‘get used to it’ because ‘this is parenting’ and I can’t ‘reply on my parents all the time’. I don’t harass or beg her to help and usually only accept if she offers or if it’s for something like work, I don’t go out drinking or partying, not to the cinema or anything.
Just looking for someone to make me feel better and it feels better to write it out, I’ve got no one I feel I can talk to in person.
