I have 2 babies, my daughter is 18 months and my son is 6 months. I am a stay at home mom, I love it but my whole day is about the kids. I hardly have time to myself, on a lucky day they will take a nap at the same time. I don't really go anywhere because I am very over protective of my babies.i also had postpartum with my daughter which made my extremely over protective. anyway, I just would like to know if their are people out there in my situation and how do you cope daily. Thanks, Ella

My little girl was 6 months old when i got pregnant with the next one. All i could think is boy what a mess. Now that they are older 7 and 8 they fight all the time. so you better enjoy it while you can. I never went anywhere with mine either cuz i was the one that had to do everything get the kids ready and get myself ready and then get them in the car. Lock everything. so it was just better to stay home and let hubby go himself. I don't think i ever had postpartum. But I really dont know.

I will probably stay home until the kids start school. Thats another issue though, if I can gain some more patience we were thinking of homeschooling to at least preserve their innocence. Ella

My kids are 8 years and 2 weeks apart. My oldest brother and my sister are 2 days shy of a year apart though. My mom had 6 kids in 9 years. She was ALWAYS busy taking care of the kids. She stayed home until I was like 6.
