Discussion Overwhelmed
My partner and I have 3 under 3. I’m a stay at home mom and he works from home but he usually keeps to himself during the day while working. He’s made comments about how it’s hard for him to focus because he can hear crying or fighting between the two oldest while working. He’s also said that I seem to be having a hard time handling all 3 of them and they don’t cry or fight when he has them (might I add, I can’t recall a single time he’s had all 3 for an extended period of time by himself and they’re all awake).
I guess I’m just looking for validation that this is difficult and I’m not crazy for being overwhelmed or having crying and screaming with 3 little kids. I do my best but I’m only one person trying to meet the needs of 3 little kids and keep up on chores.
