Ugh. Hoping someone can tell me this is temporary, and the kids will be okay...
I have three kids - 9, 5, and 2. And I'm pregnant. 14 weeks. I have been lying in bed most days, doing NOTHING. The kids' homeschooling consists of watching Netflix and playing video games as they learn the "lessons" of how to make your own snack, and oh, something for your brother and sister, too. :-(
I feel so guilty and awful. The house is a wreck, and my husband is really doing as much as he can. He gets short with our nine yo bc he's so stressed with the burdens of huge work stuff, plus me being sick all the time. It is just too much.
Plus, our sweet middle boy needs a surgery, which could potentially make him deaf in one ear, and we are all super stressed about that!
I like to give my kids lots of different supplements bc they have some issues, and I make my own vitamin c gummies bc in order to reach the dosage I like, I don't want to buy premade gummies (way too much sugar at that dose), I love my kids and hate myself for not being able to just get up and make the damn vitamins!
I made them GF chicken nuggets in the toaster oven and even managed to overcook those! Can I do anything right?
I want to feel better! I WANT to be a good mom. Why can't I make myself do it?
