My family has moved to Europe and we will be here for 3 years. I am unable to work while we are here, and am now a full time stay at home mom. Our kids are almost 1 and 3. Not to minimize the parenting challenge for anyone working full time outside of the home, but this has been far more challenging for me personally than when I was working and I didn’t realize how much I needed that mental break, even when I was struggling in a career I didn’t love. So, my “crazy weekends” have turned into 24/7 craziness…and I feel like I’m really struggling to find a good routine for my toddler. I miss the structure daycare provided and find it nearly impossible to replicate with a baby thrown into the mix. It definitely seems to be impacting my toddler’s behavior and sleep sometimes. I will take any and all advice!
