Hopefully you are able to take a nap this afternoon or late morning to regain some lost sleep! It's so hard to function with one eye open 
Hang in there! I keep reminding myself that my little ones won't be little forever. One day I will miss a crowded bed!

| This morning was a real blunder, my son was tired it was 6 in the morning but he wouldnt sleep and he wanted to sleep ontop of the blankets with us, that caused another problem since its freezing cold right now and trying to get blanket when he is on top isnt that easy .. phew.. what a morning

| I thought i wouldnt peak at my weight until the 9th, but i did today and lost something, i guess that a tag encouraging in a way. I really enjoy my family but my weight is a barrier to be able to enjoy my kids, i want to loose it whilst they are still young so i can enjoy the things they like to do, like how my son would tug my hand and run around in the area we are i want to be able to keep up with him and do that more often without having to take a break from all that speed and energy that he has and wants to share with his mother. I feel so sorry for him for the way i am, because he wants me to have fun to do the things he wants to do but my weight is a crucial facotr to this all, bless his soul that he doesnt see it that way. I just wish......

Hang in there! What you are going through is so common and so normal. Be patient with yourself. It's so difficult to not want immediate results but the truth is that if you take it slow but consistant on the front end, the weight will be more likely to stay off in the long run. Enjoy your children and feel free to reach out when you feel frustrated and overwhelmed. You are not alone in wanting to make your health a priority while juggling a family. We can all do it together and learn a few things along the way too!
Hug your angels and keep smiling!

The thing with my weight is that i gained my weight plus few more kilos when i was pregnant with my son, i had pre clamsia and the doctors over here didnt do anything about it and then when i thought i was loosing weight i became pregnant before my son's first birthday. So pre pregnancy weight times 2 im trying to acheive i think. I don't know anymore.
Thanks for the feedback kelly.

Hi Fluver,
Welcome to SparkPeople and congratulations on your new little one. Hang in there...an eight week old and a soon to be 2 year old can be a handful for sure. I wouldn't start any activity until you get the ok from your doctor. Take things one day at a time and don't be so hard on yourself. You will find a routine that works for you and your family. Focus on the right food choices and try to get as much sleep as you can. My girls are 18 months apart and I remember the constant chaos we lived in for a while. Once a sleep routine has been established for your infant, it all gets more manageable from there. You may want to check out our sister site (www.babyfit.com) as well. There are so many great women over there going through the same thing you are. Hug your angels and make time for yourself too. Things will fall into place!
Be well,
Kelly

| I just had a daughter 2 months ago, she was one month early, and now i have this weight on me and i think i probably still have my pregnancy hormones with me too, i have not received my period yet. I have also a 21 month old son. I am a stay at home mother. My husband works though. How do i manage the household, the kids, the husband and on top of this loose weight? Any suggestion. All feedback is welcome.
