💛 Day 5 one wish a day 💛

Today, I wish I had more help, even just for a little while.

Some days feel so full taking care of my baby, keeping things together, and trying not to fall behind. It can feel lonely doing so much on my own.

I don’t need everything taken off my plate… just a little support would mean so much.

To the moms doing it all you’re stronger than you think :white_heart:

I feel this! My husband and I have NO support from our family who lives far away :frowning:

I feel like I am constantly falling behind as well and wish I had a little help but I try to give myself a little grace and will get to the laundry piles eventually :joy: wishing for help for you!

Chores are a constant game of catch up. Some days I get an entire room cleaned. Others I don’t do any cleaning at all. I’m so afraid to miss out on my daughter’s development if I’m cleaning all the time. It’s okay to let things go for a little while. I don’t have much support either, but I have learned to either use a playpen, barricade baby in the room I’m cleaning, or carry her as I do chores. Everything just takes a little longer, but that’s okay. This is also the only time my daughter gets to use her toy box. If I’m not cleaning, all she gets is the 9 toys I keep on rotation in the living room.
