I don’t know if anyone looks back at these comments, but I am looking for a specific quote about parenting that I saw on here somewhere in the last little while. I thought the quote was at the end of this post, but apparently not. It is by someone else, and it is about mothering / parenting – the many, many diapers and all the repetitive work, night and day, but the value of it is great. Someday the memory of it will warm the child in sad times or happy. Something like this, but expressed so beautifully. Can anyone tell me where this is? Thanks.If you know where I could find it, please add to these comments, I will check.

!8 months is amazing! It’s hard to find beyond 6 months here. I am so glad you have that time! I hope you can find the right means of support:)

I’m 7 months pregnant and stressed to be swapping places with him next month as I stay home and he heads off to work. We get 18 months maternity leave here in Canada (wohoo!) so we’ve been able to swap on and off taking leaves from work to have someone home with the kids. I remember the toddler tantrums from diverted attention and I’m bracing myself already.

My daughter and i are very close but now naturally the new baby had taken a lot of her time. Before baby we would Cook, do art ,play a lot, go out etc but now my time is sooo limited I’m trying to get into a rhythm and find a balance between her, him, housework, husband and I’m having a hard time. My father had become extremely resentful of the baby she didn’t want him near her or to touch her anything to do with him. She screams at him, grabs him hard and is just not very nice. It’s heartbreaking because I don’t like seeing her like that and also because my son looks at her with such love and so deeply wanted to follow her everywhere she connect with her. So my question is how to deal and hello correct these behaviors so they become extremely cloudy and are best friends and love and respect each other?? Thank you!]]> Hello !
