Solo Parenting

Oh the dreaded solo parenting nights. I know I'm lucky that I have a present partner and I think that's what makes solo parenting such a challenge. We don't have the easiest baby, even though we lie when people ask, and give the "he's amazing" "we're so lucky" polite bullshit, because when you tell the truth people give you an odd look and never know how to reply.

My husband was going for a boys night to a hockey game, and managed to cleverly disguise it as a business trip because he's taking "clients", or guys that deal with him that he likes and wants to go out with is more accurate. When he tells me he's leaving I always go through various emotions. The first is anger; leaving me alone with a challenging baby and 3 dogs, fml. The second resentment; why does he get to leave and I feel like I can't. That one gets me; I want to have the freedom to leave but don't actually want to go anywhere. I miss the days that I could pick up and just leave with no guilt feeling.

At this point I start to spiral; my husband has never had to solo parent, he's never fed solids, never done bath time, never done the bedtime massage, never washed bottles, the list goes on. I usually take all this on willingly and in a very particular order to make it easy for me the next day when I'm alone again and he's gone to work. But it makes me angry that he hasn't done and never even tried to do it. I'm the kind of person that if he did do it and it wasn't my way I would never say anything negative to him and just have an anxiety attack on my own.

I go deeper and deeper into this rabbit hole getting more and more angry at him for not being the primary parent....but the thing is that I don't want him to be. I don't want to be him. I love that I get to spend every day with my little guy and I don't want to give that up for anything, but I do miss my old life at times.

This always brings up another feeling; I don't want to go back to work after maternity leave, but should I be having these feelings if I want to be a stay at home mom. I feel guilty and like if I don't enjoy every minute of motherhood I should be going to work and contributing financially to the household....but I don't really want to.

I go through 2 days of mixed emotions, not wanting to communicate with my husband, trying to piece together my feelings and figure it all out. I'm not sure that I'm there or ever will be, but for now I just need to get through the next couple days of being alone with my babies.

This is my safe place to post whatever I want🎉

I’m a mom to 2 wonderful girls and married. I’m a SAHM but also work per diem as a Certified Surgical Technologist. I specialize in orthopedic surgeries.

I solo parent during the week.

I love attempting to cook and feeding people my extras.

Food, aesthetic pictures, nature, sunsets, bright art, and many other things I’m looking for on tumblr. Facebook and Instagram are getting boring.

Solo Parenting

So I'm a solo parent to a gorgeous girl who is 9.5 going on 16. I swear, the tantrums and diva like behaviours has gotta be coz of hormones? If not, then I'm in a world of trouble when they do hit.

I burnt my hands the other day and doing everything alone the last couple of days has kinda sucked. I've had offers of help but asking someone to come wash the dishes or stop the washing machine from an uneven load seems a bit pointless.

I just didnt want to feel alone anymore today so I went searching for somewhere to say all this and the anonymity of here seems great.

JESSIE COMPLETES HER ADVANCED DIPLOMA Im so proud of my 19 y.o daughter Jessie (daughter No.1) who just finished her Advanced Diploma of Legal Studies at Kangan Institute today. She finished with a final grade of 98.8 so I presume there is a 1.2% margin for error. Jessie just got accepted and enrolled into a Bachelor of Arts (psychology) at Deakin University so is now all grown up! Jessie is part Aboriginal descent. She wants to to work with immigrant and disadvantaged communities/people in future. She has faced some adversities for her young age: She has been raised solo by me since aged 11, and has helped me look after her little sisters when I've been working. I'm pretty sure she has been more mature than I since forever too. Jessie has faced a lot of criticisms for her strict beliefs and adherence to Islam. Jessie has been put down by ignorant people before, but what makes me proud is that Jessie doesn't care what people thinks. She holds her head high and does her own thing in life. Also, once Jessie gets her degree in psychology, she can finally help me manage my adult ADHD! www.snakehunter.com.au #jessie #daughter #muslim #graduation #school #father #singledad #soloparent #singleparent #proudparent #eldestchild #child #family #teenager #yolo #TAFE #university (at Kangan Institute) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCkizULAQx3/?igshid=h01qqm5xmz8l

Very sick the last week. Fever. Head cold. I feel like a #NyQuil ad. Kids are getting sick too. It goes in waves. One then another then another. No one thinks of this unless they have a #bigfamily, but one cold can wipe a #parentof4out for six or more weeks as it runs through each person. Getting kids to school is a joke (another reason we chose #homeschooling in the USA.) As a #soloparent everything else comes to a standstill when I’m sick, except it can’t. There’s no one else to wipe the noses or clean the messes or do the bills or hold the children an no one is here to support the one here doing all those things. #myvillageistoosmall #ijustwantaliedown #sicksucks #isolation sucks. Grateful for #beppe on Christmas Eve but I’ve been alone for days in this state and I could use more hands and a lot more sleep. #fibromyalgiawarrior #spoonie #onmyown #momofmultiples #notphased #kaitmoonarts
