It's awful when you're feeling this way, it makes it so hard to enjoy motherhood doesn't it.
I think any 'you' time you can get is really important. I make a point of taking at least an hour every weekend to go out by myself and leave DS with DH, even if it is just to walk up the street to grab a coffee, sometimes I treat myself to a pedicure, or head out for a spot of shopping (or at least window shopping). I find it makes a real difference and when I come home I'm itching to give DS a cuddle.
Oh
10 months was the absolute worst time for us! Teething and unsettledness - awake every 1-2 hours and cosleeping with a thrashing bed-hog. I was workign then too, so no time to catch up during the week, but i always got sleepins on the weekend.
Hoep your little man is well soon - that always makes it so much worse.
honey.
