I used to be a working mother. And I found it very exhausting physically, I did not do anything extra. I usually arrive home at 7pm, had dinner, took shower, when I finally settled down with my boy, it would be 8pm already. By then I was extremely exhausted already and can only did a little of playing with him. I wish I could be tensed, but I was too tired to be so or do anything extra with him. I think, mainly because I can't sleep at night, he wakes me up 4-5 times every night. As a result, my weight dropped dramatically, and lighter than before pregnant. I am very 殘 too.
How old is your girl now? Are you a working or full time mother? Do you have any help?
I've decided to become a full time mother (2 months now) because I just can't stretch any more. It is a little better since time is more flexible and can sleep in the afternoon. But of course, can't save as much as before. However, now I can concentrate on my family and pay utility bills promptly! I did not even have time/energy to open letters and pay bills before.
My daughter is 2 yrs & 8 months now. I'm a working mom. The situation is better since 6 months ago. My daughter can't sleep well and wakes me up several times every night. 6 months ago I took her to consult a Chinese Medical Practitioner and he prescribed some herbal tea for my daughter to drink every week. Then my daughter can sleep well and didn't wake up during night time anymore. I can have a better sleeping quality now, but my dark eye circle does not disappear.
