I just survived my worse night as a mother it was horrible. I don't wish it on any woman. D day had been stressful enough, I was the only one at home with the kids and both were in a very clingy mood, they wanted to be carried at the same time and they kept crying if I didn't comply with their demand.
Finally them to bed, when suddenly David woke with a sharp cry and refuse to go back to bed no matter how i tried. so i began rocking him after a while he started dosing off but once I move him to d bed he wakes and start crying. this went on all night till early hours of the morning when I had to leave him on my chest to let peace reign. at that point my sleep disappeared and i had to keep petting him each time he rolls off. its morning now and it doesn't look like it will be better.
I wonder our mothers used to cope without a maid. cos each day am stressed out. feed them, wash bottles, sterilize bottle, bathe them, play with them wash clothes, cook home-made meals for them. this is a full time job that am not enjoying at the moment. am just plain tired.
Thanks for adding me to your blog list! Your boys are so handsome. I love their names. I am very partial to biblical names. You are a beautiful mama!
ReplyDeleteI know how exhausting taking care of two little one is. My first year with the boys was really, really hard. It is a very physically and emotionally demanding job. I had other twin moms encourage me that it got better after the first year and I have found that to be true. They become more self-sufficient and become better at communicating their wants and needs. Hang in there! You can do this!
Thanks a lot, i find that rather encouraging. i love my boys to bits and they have seriously improved. I think it was a teething thing. I keep praying for strength and its been getting better.
