I’ve struggled with my little girl since she was born. She was never settled and constantly crying. I Definitely think she had some discomfort with her milk at the time which didn’t help. I went back to work when she was 9 months for three days a week and that definitely saved me mentally as she was always such hardwork. I’ve always said to myself get to 18M and hopefully she will be better and I’ve just survived since then.
Anyway fast forward to 18 months I’m finding it difficult again, I have always struggled as I said but something feels like im back at that 2 month mark again but this time chasing a feral toddler and i feel like mentally and physically it’s draining. I mean she’s a typical toddler in some ways but she just cries and whinges 85% of the day! I feel like she’s so much worse for me too. When I try explain to my mum or MIL, I get “she’s been great” or “she’s such a hood girl” I honestly don’t think it’s the same child me and my husband get at the weekend. She’s cries in the car and cries if I walk into another room. She just cries in general at anything I think out of Boredom possibly? It’s like nothing fulfils her and on top of the new tantrum hitting phase Im exhausted.
Any help or advice? Please someone tell me it gets easier and when!
