I went from having 3 kids to almost 6 kids now. My brother in law is in jail and his ex wife is a junkie and constantly in and out of jail. I love them but having this many kids to take care or exhausting 😪
You are super woman! Things will get better. And plus it every child needs a stable home
You are amazing! Make sure to take advantage of state preschool for all those 3+ if they aren’t school age. Summer is about half way over, hang in there!!! Also, if you don’t receive services, see if you qualify now and if you do, see if you can get more to help out. I wonder if there is another family member, that while they might not be able to take them in, could come over and babysit for an afternoon or help contribute in some way.
I have 6. Its slot to handle. You Got this tho. Your doing something good for those kids. I have 6 but I even offered for my niece to come live with me this past year due to poor family conditions. But she declined cause shes a teen..and I have rules lol..❤
@rosemom, @hilligermomx2, @earthymama, thank you guys 😭 my heart breaks for these kids. They don’t eat unless I feed them. Their “mom” made them live off ramen noodles because she was either too drunk or too hung over to cook for them. Their dad was always our dealing drugs so the best he could do was order them take out food. Before he got locked up he got together with some chick and got her pregnant. She was playing mommy for a few months but she dropped them off and ran. Can’t say I blame her. These kids don’t have any stability but I’ll give them what I can.
Ohhh my, those poor kids. My heart breaks for them too but I’m so glad they have you now 🙏
Hang in there, & remember to take time for yourself too 💕
We will have a total of 6 when our baby comes with my two stepdaughters... its like having 2 fulltime jobs back to back lol
I can totally relate lol. Luckily they’re a little older (11 and 14) so they’re not super dependent on me compared to babies/elementary aged kids.
@anap1012 well 12 and almost 8 they are and the 8 yr old throws hr long tantrums, yelling at the top of her lungs, throwing stuff, harming herself, trashing rooms... we got custody of her 2 yrs ago... totally more then a hand full.🥺
Aww I bet but god bless you for stepping up. Those kids appreciate you so much 🙏💕💙
My respect goes out to you. Just think how grateful they’ll be later.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
TWW!!
2dpo and on the tww journey. Anyone on the same dpo or close? Haven't decided if I will test at 12dpo or just wait and see if she shows up!!
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
Like @lana30319 said you’re definitely super woman 💪💕
