I am just going crazy! I feel like I have lost control of everything in my life! It's like BOOM! I woke up and I have this baby that won't go away and I have so few people to help me. My husband works what seems like all the time. It's not his fault. He comes home and he is sad because ds is already in bed but then on his days off he has fun with ds and then I still have to do all the work! I feel like I'm getting ready to blow up! On top of that, ds is usually very independent but for the last 2 days he just won't let go of me. He doesn't want to play he just wants to hold on. I can't even put him down to pee even though he's standing right there in front of me. He's teething like never before. I guess he's teething, he spends half the day chewing and then the other half he is just a clingon. He bites me and it HURTS! It's not his fault, he's just a baby. Sometimes he catches me by surprise with a bite and I scream and then I hope I didn't scare him. We watch the same Baby Genius video over and over and over again. It's the only thing we can do. I can't even put him down to play with him on the floor. I guess I can be thankful that the video works. We've been watching it on demand, I think I may actually need to purchase it. I'm not in any danger of hurting him or anything like that I just feel like I'm going to loose my mind! I love my son so much. He really is a fantastic, easy going baby that even sleeps through the night for 11 hours without us. He doesn't even like sleeping with us. UGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!

Thanks for listening.

I understand those feelings! It will get better!

I'd recommend getting out side as much as possible- take a walk with ds in a stroller or backpack. Go to the library. A change of pace can help a lot. If worse comes to worse, watch some PBS kids- atleast it will be new!

I know how you feel. I've been there a couple of times. I agree with Salvia - get out of the house. Go for a walk, go to the park or anything outside of the house. If the weather is bad, try to go somewhere indoors. Sometimes a change in environment does them good. Sometimes a change in environment does you good too!

There is so much to see and experience outside of the house. Do you have a sling???? That could make carrying him around a little easier for you.

Hang in there.
