Sick Sammy for Xmas :(

So Samuel woke up on Sunday 12/18 with a runny nose. It wasn't bad so I wasn't too worried. But by Wednesday he was full on sick, fever and everything. He was sleeping horribly. I'd put him down at 7, he'd wake up at 9, 10:30, 1, 3, and 4:45. Usually at 4:45 he'd be up for the day 🥱😴

I took him to the doctor in Fri the 23rd. Ear infection. Wah! Sadly by that point my mom was getting sick too. So our Christmas plans got thrown off a bit. Mom didn't come to Christmas dinner and our family gathering got rescheduled to Thursday. It is 6am on Tues 12/27 and Sam finally slept through the night!

My meds, my experience and my faith 💗

I resumed it at 19 weeks to get to help my SCH heal  *I take additional magnesium to calm my ...

Never enough

I honestly wish people knew how hard it is for single parents to do basically anything. Getting out of the house, getting everyone to bed, getting free time to my own... all require a lot of coordination and there is NO backup. There is no one to fill in when I'm sick or to step up when I just need 5 minutes or to tell me I'm doing a good job when everyone's asleep and the house is so quiet.  I feel like a failure in so many parts of my life; that I'm just not following up enough, I'm not doing enough, I'm not appreciative enough. It's just never enough. 🤷🏼‍♀️
