Okay so who has their kids so close in age I have a few questions????
@president.mommy.on.board. no my son tries to help me with his baby sister
@president.mommy.on.board. oh damn I get that my son is almost 2 and always wants my attention
So far I have been with them by myself for about 3 days now and it gets frustrating at times because when they’re both crying at the same time and one can only attend one while the other cries. The easy part of it it’s that my 10 month old crawls and plays with his toys while I feed his baby sister but sometimes he gets jealous and wants me to carry him while I breastfeed her so I am not able to carry him.
@mama.of.2.under.2 right he's not going to like it he act excited but he say his dad have to stay with him
@mama.of.2.under.2 right I didn't just want it to come all on him at once so I'ma just take it slow with him
@mama.of.2.under.2 right im so used to him being here all day and next month he start going full day this month I'm starting him on half a day
@ambrebby2u awe don't cry you gotta be strong for him because if he sees you cry he's not going to want to go.
@mama.of.2.under.2 thanks luv ikr i don't want him to go but he have to he starts kindergarten next year so I want to get him used to the school setting I might cry
@mama.of.2.under.2 yw hun and I know all the episodes and cartoon my son watch cause he be stuck to the TV lol but he starts school Monday so we shall see how this goes
@ambrebby2u thank you and I feel you on that all day I'm watching cartoons with my son... and yeah it's not every day but some days.
@mama.of.2.under.2 right see you got it mama that's good that you get your rest and things done and all is coming together
@mama.of.2.under.2 you can do it mama just try and rest as much as possible in between. I'm not going o lie it will get tiresome and you'll be exhausted that's how I was so I had to manage a couple of things I mean it took away my TV time and things I like to watch but hey to keep the house in order ill give it up and I still get my me time as well
@ambrebby2u oh true I do the same with my son and my daughter I'll even take a nap my self or I'll clean while they sleep
@ambrebby2u oh true and okay it's going to be a challenge with my soon to be 2 year old and 5 month while pregnant but imma make it work
@mama.of.2.under.2 yw hun and another thing I do is when bab naps I'll sometimes make everybody take a nap or I'll do things with them like chill and watch a movie so I'm relaxing in case baby wakes up
@mama.of.2.under.2 no worries I be the same way mama so what I do is get like little things my 4 year old can grab and at time when I'm in the mood I'll make up lil things he can eat and put them in a container. He go and get them and eat it my oldest kids also cook so they will cook food as well i wouldn't trade them being so close in age for nothing. I like the closeness better thou cause with the big age gap I have now it's like I'm all over the place and different ages with different interest and things to do with them...
@mama.of.2.under.2 you'll be able to do it mama before I had them like hell out one another it was always a fiesta in this damn house. It was a straight brawl. Then when I came up with the ideal of getting them involved with helping one another it brought down the chaos a whole lot. I also made printable schedules as to things we are going to do and the time and that work wonders also.
@ambrebby2u yeah I be tired some times and not want to cook and it's hard trying to get my son and daughter on a schedule
@ambrebby2u oh dang and true that's a lot but hopefully I'm able to manage
@mama.of.2.under.2 right its crazy thou cause sometimes when i can't be super mom and im tired from the baby it gets crazy.
@mama.of.2.under.2 it's very easy unfortunately but it gets chaotic at time cause they fight when I make store runs I take a different and they all like doing different things like one like to help cook one like to clean and one likes to sit around so I just kind of go with what type of day it is and they get rough really rough when my oldest two don't like to follow the rules and I have them in extra curricular activities. So sometimes I be about to pull my hair out with all the different personalities but I find it much easier that I do one on one time with them and one on one activities and games cause if I don't I'll be walking around with and head full of gray hair. Also They are daddies boys they worship the ground he walk on and I give each of them a time to watch their favorite show.
@mama.of.2.under.2 I love it thou but since they got older all they do is bump heads like damn what's the problem I thought they would be closer cause of their age but my 4 year old and 10 year old are so close its very weird
@ambrebby2u how did you manage all of them... because I think imma go crazy with 3 under 3
@president.mommy.on.board. yeah
