Exhausted

I am exhausted. Having 3 kids under the age of 8 is difficult. Someone always needs something or is talking. My husband doesn't know how to connect on an emotional level and I am just really sad. I am a home body and my hobbies get neglected because everyone always needs me and I am exhausted by the end of the day. Anyway have kind words or shared experiences to help me get through this?

Hi Lavender!

I’m also a mommy of 3 kids under 10 and what you described is exactly how I feel. Only add a alcoholic narcissist to the mix. Recently I’ve been shutting down emotionally because I’m pushed to my limit. So many needs all the time. I’m here if you ever want to chat!

Step back and let him take charge..let him see how much work it is and he'll either open his eyes or become mute to the reality. Parenting is a hell of a job..also take some alone time and go on a date and reconnect at least once a week if you can..remind each other why you had kids and why you got married and that your a team and it's gonna be ok.
