Hi girls. I haven't posted much on here lately, I have been sooooooooo busy with Brianna! She is 8 months old now and decided she no longer likes to take good naps during the day so i am sooo busy with her, especially when Kenny is at work!

I just got a port placed in my chest because i am on IV antibiotics again. It's just so hard dealing with everything, taking care of myself, taking care of her, doing the normal everyday house "duties" if you will - making dinner, dishes, giving her a bath, doing my nebs & meds - I feel like i am overwhelmed and sometimes i feel like i am just going to lose my mind with everything that i have to do... on top of doing it all while i dont feel good. Kenny helps out A LOT, but for some reason sometimes i wish he would do more. Or maybe do more without me having to ask him. I dont even really know the *reason* for this post, maybe i just need to vent to woman who UNDERSTAND. I mean, I am doing my 8am IV infusions & morning nebulizers, and Brianna is in her walker or playpen whining and wants to be fed or just needs attention and i feel like ripping my hair out sometimes!!!!!!

Do any of you ever feel like, "how the heck am i going to do this????" .. I am just reallyyyyyyy stressed out. Not so much depressed, maybe a little depressed. I just never want to do anything because i am so tired and exhausted all the time. I am taking Zoloft 100mgs (have been for YEARS) because i suffered from depression when i was in my teens.. and i have taken Xanax & Klonopin to help sleep and for anxiety sometimes. I know there is no "magic pill" to make me feel better, but i just am wondering if i am the only one who feels way overwhelmed at times....

Hey tina,
I have felt this way and I don't even have a baby to take care of!! I'm sorry your so stressed. I wish there was an easy fix it that I could suggest to you but theres not. Just take everything on thing at a time as it comes to you. Don't look at your day and ALL you HAVE to get done. Just take it one task at a time and just be content with all you accomplished! Not what you didn't accomplish. Use paper plates, vaccum while you do your meds, I do laundry and pick up while I do my meds. Just quite stressing yourself out about all your not getting done!! =)
As long as all the people in your household are getting attention and love from ya thats all u need to worry about. Oh and I guess its a tad important that Brianna has a meals and clean bottom!! =)
