Does anyone else ever feel so fed up, worthless, angry, upset. But most of all invisible.
I’ve never felt it so much, but today. I feel it. I feel alone in a family of 4. I’m a mum and a partner. A mum to 2 beautiful girls. One with a very rare medical condition, the other with server CMPA and other allergys. They are always Ill (well it feels like they are). A partner to the man I adore for 8 years.
Why do I feel like this?
Tonight, from 16pm I’ve fed the baby, walked to the shop because my partner Didn’t want what I planned for tea, cooked tea, done dishwasher, fed the family, got the eldest ready for bed, (my partner did her milk for the 1st time in a very long time. He didn’t even use the right bottle or teat. He used the one for our baby who is allergic. But he didn’t even know how she liked her milk. I had to redo it). Then I’ve done 5 loads of washing, washed bottles, ironed everyone’s clothes, cleaned kitchen, sorted the baby out (she’s got high temperature, thrown up on herself, poo all up her back), fed her, got her to bed. I’ve done all this in 4 hours. While my partner sits, eats his tea, plays Xbox and chills. Even asks me to bring food in.
Yes he does work 40 hours a week but he works 3 days one week then 4 days other week. (Hours spread out).
He moans I don’t have a job & I don’t deserve time to myself because looking after the girls and being a mum is the life I had chosen. I adore my little girls, I don’t regret anything. But it’s taken me till now to release I’m so invisible. He doesn’t see what I do. 😔 How does this get fixed? I’m only 23.

All I can tell you is this. The harsh reality is, you’re not gonna get a medal for doing what you do on a day to day basis BUT, it’s down to you if you want the rest of your time to be happy. If he doesn’t appreciate you or make you happy, then you need to sit and talk it through with him. He does need to muck in with house duties more, regardless of his work hours, cos you don’t have the luxury of “clocking off” after so many hours per week.
