I'm really, really hating my job as a mother right now. I feel like all I do is get frustrated with my children and then we all cry. Someone is always crying, including myself, and I'm so fucking over it.

I have unicorn twins. They want to sleep in the crib. Not the RnPs in our room. I have a feeling this will all go to pot soon as all good things with babies do. But until then. Wahoo!
LydiaDeetz, when people ask how I like being a SAHM, I tell them that I am happy about 60-70% of the time. about 25% I wonder WTF I was thinking. But it's 51% is still more than half of the time, and that's a whole lot better than most people.

This too shall pass. I hope you get a bit of rest tonight and tomorrow is a better day.

At what point should my kids start wearing shoes? They are pulling up and standing with support but not walking yet. Mostly I leave their feet bare but I don't know if that's right or not.
Bare feet are best for early walking. We got shoes when my kids took an interest in walking outside of the house. Singleton parents put shoes on way earlier than that, IME. They clearly have too much time in their hands
bocaburger, we have shoes for outside mainly so that of they want to "walk" holding our hands they can. They are starting to get board being in the stroller all the time. When we were back home and touring around sometimes walking around holding our hands was the most exercise they got since we were out and about most the day. At home they are either bare footed or have those little soft leather bottomed shoes so its like they have socks on but wont slip on our floors.

bocaburger- My daycare has than same rule. Feet in shoes to start the day. A lot of kids kick the. Off and they leave them off as that happens.
LydiaDeetz- Hugs momma! The beginning is super hard. For me it got better around 10 weeks when the babes started to give smiles. Their happy eyes and huge smiles make me feel like I've gotta be doing something right for them to smile and coo at me so much. Survive this for now.
First day back to work. Had so many feels yesterday. Happy and ready to go back but damn am I gonna miss these two babes. I've loved seeing their lil personalities grow and also to see their physical changes too. It's been an amazing 12 weeks.

Our girls have slept in their cribs 3 nights in a row now. They love it. We haven't had one night of incessant crying. We are all sleeping better. Now we just need to work on sleeping longer than 4 hour stretches.

H has her follow up audiology appt (since failing her newborn screening 3 times). I have to mess with their schedule so that she's hungry and sleepy at the appt. it's making everyone cranky. Don't they know babies don't like their schedule screwed up?!?!

Wow, welcome back to work! I cried the first couple days and now I AM SO HAPPY to be at work. It makes the weekends even more important for family time.
And kudos to the SAHMs. I would have lost my marbles.

Big hugs Lydia. I hope that it gets better soon. Being a mother is the hardest job I've ever had.
Any chance you can get a break today/this weekend? A few hours away always made me feel like a new woman.

Big, huge hugs LydiaDeetz! This shit is hard. But you're doing a wonderful job even on the worst days. It will get better!!
Hugs to you, too, @jacks605! The first week was emotional, but it got so much easier very quickly. Work gives me the right balance of being mommy and being a funtioning human, even if my house looks like shit. Let's be honest, it would probably look even worse if I stayed home!

Winning!! So happy you're getting better sleep. Agreed on longer stretches of sleep. I'm lucky to get 3 hours overnight. I got 4 during the day sometimes. Mine are still pretty young though I guess. I hope it keeps getting better for you!
It's totally normal to literally just be in a routine of change diaper, eat, sleep, change diaper and so on right? I feel like I should be doing more with them. But then I remember they're only 3 weeks old.

Yeah, that's about all you have time for at 3 weeks.

Super thanks. I feel weird that my goal is always "get back to sleep" but yet that's what they seem to want.
