'If mamma ain't happy nobody is" this is so true! You "Must" get some "Me" time in some how. Your not Mary Poppins sweetie, you will only be making things worse by not allowing for yourself to have a break. Self sacrificing does not do you or the boys any good love, all it does is make you angry and bitter at yourself for not allowing yourself time on your own to rejuvinate and find yourself. You are the motor of the house, so you want to keep that motor running right!
You might have to get bubs into a new routine, wont hurt him, he will learn many new things as life goes by. This new routine could make for much peace in the whole house.
Maybe work out what activities they are doing during the day! Is it enough to make them tired of a night? What foods are they eating, could they be eating foods that make them more hyper during the night?
Men are hopseless mind readers, so have you been direct with him in what help you need? Have you asked him to mind the boys for only a hour while you have a walk along a beach with a friend? That would work wonders for you, you would come home ready to take on everthing again.
I know how you feel, I dont get much help either, but my hubbie works hard and I dont want to burden him when he is working. But I am a fool for that because he needs to have daddy kids time too. Sometimes I have all six kids pulling me this way and that way and I could scream my nut off. And he sits in his office merely typing away while all the noise is rotating through the house.
Be daring, tell dh what you want and let him know your not going to sacrifice your whole being and mind anymore.
And in regards to the yelling at the kids, heck I should ring docs on you lmao, what a terrible person you are for having a "moment" of weakeness. Your boys love you with everything that they are, you could never lose that.
