I will say this very loudly and possibly more than once: I wish I could write like that.

Take care of you first.

I know how you feel (not the cumalative sleep deprivation, thankfully once past the first few months both of mine are OK sleepers – barring the odd bad patch) but feeling so torn, between love for them and just sometimes needing to wish selfishly for what you need most – a break away from them.

Typically the days that we feel most in need of another adult are always the days when there is nobody else at home to take over and give us a few hours sleep. I hope that you get a good nights sleep soon, or at least lots of tea and TLC from your other half. x

This really took me back to when we went through a tough time at nights with my second. Some nights I coped and some nights I didn’t.
