Do you ever feel that you are just "existing" that you are just here for everyone's convenience ?
I feel that im just here to make life easier for everyone else !
I get up and get the kids ready, get them to school, come home and clean then cook before getting the kids again. Feed them, clean them and put them to bed. Oh then the next day do it all again .
I love being a mummy, girlfriend, daughter and friend but at some point i would like to be ME

thats exactly how i feel i never go out i dont get anytime to myself. Its the same thing everyday i get kids ready 2 take to the childminders monique fights me all the way through being washed dressed cleaning her teeth brushing her hair she fights everything i drop them off go 2 work pick them up get them ready for bed they eventually drop off then i pass out usually on the sofa watchin somethin
That just sounds like my life also. Have u told your other half how your feeling tho? Maybe even sugest having a girls time out where you have just a few hours to yourself or with a friend for a good chat and coffee. Its amazing how much just a hour a week to yourself makes you feel. I know this sounds really stupid but i gave up smoking for 3 yrs and started again... when i sat and thought about it i stupidly started again because it was the only time i got to myself as i smoked outside. Now i have stopped but have 1 hour a week with my friend at asda having a coffee and chat. It just gives me the chance to be me! X

This is how I feel alot of the time. I get up, get Rohan washed, dressed, breakfast out to nursery, go to work, work all day, pick him up, story, bath bed, then I go about ironing, wahsing up, uniforms ready, lunch packed, hoover, clean, then bed. Wake up and do it all again. I work full time and am a single parent. Honestly ?- this is why I dont want anymore kids, because one is enough!!!

If you are in need of a fantastic, totally kid-focused, fun packed family adventure, an overnight stay at LEGOLAND Windsor is definitely the place to go!
Cot death is a subject that terrifies most parents, and new research has confirmed a major link between co-sleeping and sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).
