I'm having a bad day. A very bad day.
I want my baby back. Please. You can take this clingy, teary, whiney thing that looks like my sweet angel. I can't handle much more of this.
She has been crying all morning. She won't nap, won't eat much and just wants to cry. I, being the emotional pregnant woman that I am, am crying right along with her. I actually had to walk away from her to fling myself atop the bed and wail. Very dramatic. But, then again, very me.
I know this will pass and is probably some sign of teething or growing or something, but I feel like my life is over a little bit right now. I feel like shit and like a shitty mother because I can't fix what is wrong. I don't even know what is wrong and that makes me mad.
I find myself really resenting (hating) my husband right now. Like a child, I want to scream how unfair it is that I have to stay home every day and how I have to take care of this screaming mini-me every day. And, those days when he comes home and has the nerve to say "boy, what a day I had, I'm soooo tired" it's all I can do not to pack my bags and run away to...to...somewhere with no husbands and no children.
The day is half over and I'm counting the minutes to bedtime. Hopefully, tomorrow will be a better day.

I wish that I could come and babysit for you one afternoon a week, but I live a bit far.
I agree with Toni, you need to try to find something for yourself. It is important to have that time to re-group and go on with the next day.
It will make for a much happier wife and mommy!
I can definitely relate. Dooce had a recent post where she put leta in the sink and gave her some tampons to chew on to shut her up. That cracked me up. I for one go straight to the bath when my smallest in inconsolable. He is a water boy and calms down immediately. Funny, a warm bath works for me too. Maybe you could bathe together! Ha! I am a frequent one for losing my shit, so don't feel bad, people reassure me all the time that I'm a great mother, so they must be right!! Have a good rest of the day.
