Yes my two are 4 and 5 now and are best friends (in between trying to kill each other)!!

Never knew how hard I would work pleasing two kids with completely different needs on pretty much zero sleep. The little one was a terrible sleeper and the older one starting waking at 5am. I recall thinking of ways to hurt myself so I could have some time in hospital for a holiday! At 6 and 4 they are still bickering and trying to kill each other but the age gap is really good. They always have someone by their side (even if its to annoy) and my nappy days are gone!

My advice? Lower your standards and expectations until they’re on the floor! Like you say, get up and keep everyone alive. That’s winning!

That’s great that you find it all so ‘easy’ but you mention how you laugh at others who are struggling. Twice. It isn’t helpful. Wonder why you replied (other than to gloat). This is meant to be a supportive piece.

A similar thing happened to me when my first was nine months and I hadn’t slept for more than three hours at a time for over a year. It turned out I’d had an epileptic fit. UTIs are dangerous when you’re weak. I hope you got checked out and made a full recovery x

I am similar. A 20 month age gap (they are now 16 weeks and 2) and a pre teen (11.5) and it’s definitely hard work at times!

Or she can play with the kids while you do a bit of work. And you get to talk with a grown up that isnt your partner!
