Re: Moms in pain w/small kids-how do you deal?

hi, i am there too. i have severe joint pain in my knees, combined with pain from a car accident where i hurt my back about 4 years ago. i am 32 yrs old and i have a 15 month old and it is so hard to keep up with her. my husband is very supportive, but i am not sure he understands how hard it is for me. the days i am home alone with her (i also work full time outside the home), its all i can do just to keep up and nothing gets done around the house. on my husbands days home with her, he manages to clean the house too (what a honey, huh?) but i kind of feel like he doesnt get why i cant clean too on my days off. it is difficult and i do wish i had help, and i only have ONE little one. my other is near 15 and while not physically demanding, the emotional stress certainly keeps my xanax prescription flowing.
sigh, so i hear you mamas...
take care...
