Somedays I wish I could go back to just me sitting in my CLEAN 1 bedroom unit eating ice cream for dinner ( the full tub) not having to share with anyone , drinking a 6 pack while watching what ever I want on tv (abc for kids banned) having a shower and going to the toilet on my own , going to bed and sleeping all night ohh the memories of sleeping all night ( haven't slept for 5 years and counting)! Going out for lunch with a friend, somewhere nice that no one would take kids, having a conversation without being interrupted 100 times, how easy was life!
I have no question I'm just sitting in my house with 3 kids , mess everywhere, throbbing headache remembering the good old days lol
Does anyone else have these days??

HELL YEAH!
Yes we all have those feelings at some point! A sure sign you need to organise a sitter and go out for a night with friends, us mums all need timeout! we work better and have more patience, at times when you feel like this just mentally tell yourself our kids aren't little forever there's going to be a time when they are independent and don't want anything to do with you! Hard to picture at this moment but they will grow up! Just enjoy each stage of their life, and every mum has a messy house at some stage it's just a FAMILY HOME and if they say they don't they are lying (or have a nanny lol) go have a girls night out its amazing how you'll feel after it
Yes!!! Definitely my husband and I look back fondly at the days you could do what ever you wanted when ever you wanted.
Definitely have those days! On holiday with baby and cannot wait to get back home so she can be babysat.
They're cute little things but even cuter when they are asleep or being babysat!
HELL YEAH MUMMA!!!
I feel guilty as hell for thinking this.
Thank you for posting this and for those that reply feeling the same.
There is no me time, there is no us time for me and hubby - unless we stay up late and then Im the one out of bed early and cranky as f#*k the next day.
I know my kids will grow quick and I know one day I long for them to need to me again, but sometimes I just wish someone would walk in understand my unspoken need and tell me to take the night off, pack a bag, some food and drinks and me and hubby go camping. No people, no kids, no tv. Just us and a camp fire, swag and the stars. Or a cheap motel I really don't care.
Again thank you thank you THANK YOU for this post. You are amazing xoxoxoxo
All the time…. Don't worry this phase passes. Guess our parents thought the same raising us.
