I'm 33 nearly 34 and a mother of 2 children. A boy aged 4 and a girl who will be 3 in November. I work full time so both of them are in a creche. My little boy started pre school in September so he'll be going to big school September next year (please god). I will be getting married in June 2011 after been together with my OH for nearly 14 years. I have found it hard to cope at times trying to deal with children and life in general. My partner works in another county doing shift work so it's left to me to get them up in the morning, be with them in the evenings and most weekends. He does help when he's home but I don't think it's fair on him and I usually end up spending time outside the house doing jobs I should have been doing but couldn't.
They are good children and I get great enjoyment out of them, but sometimes there is just no time for myself or for my partner. Does anyone else feel like this. We have tried to make changes, like good a nice meal at least twice a month. It gives each of us something to look forward to.
Anyway this is me and best of luck to others who are TTC and who have children already.
Hi there caroline, welcome to the site!
I totally understand how hard it is to make time for yourself and your h2b, it's really important that you take an evening every once in a while to just be a couple and enjoy each other's company. We're all here for you if you ever need to have a good chat about it hun.
