And so it begins.
The first trimester has been tough? She's spent the entire thing in her dressing gown eating chicken nuggets!
Try having to get up at 6am every day, dropping kid 1 at nursery at the crack of dawn and getting the bus into the office every single day whilst trying not to throw up in your handbag.
If she's found that tough, what is she going to do when she has a baby that wakes her all through the night, and still starts their day at 5am, and needs routine and stimulation every single day. Absolutely no time for a 'day off' or a 'selfcare day' just because you're not feeling 100%.
My husband worked away a lot and I remember crawling out bed with food poisoning to do the nappy changes and make breakfast because parenting stops for nothing. I don't think I've had a 'selfcare day' or a 'day off' in 14 years
Parenting is wonderful but HARD and relentless and exhausting. Amelia finds getting dressed too taxing 99% of the time already. I hope she knows what's to come and she gets her shit together, otherwise it's going to floor her.
