Yeah I think knowing who you can each out to without them giving you an earful is important.

Asking for help is hard, especially if some have too much of opinion.

Lol it is definitely easier to tell others what to do. I’m pretty good at offering advice that I rarely take myself even though I know better! Crazy how that works.

It’s like we are programmed to think getting help is a sign of weakness. I know some people really have no help options but most people do even if they don’t realize it. I know you just got married so there’s at least hubby to ask!

I do agree with you that asking for help is hard. However in my situation, I have nobody to help me, so even if I wanted/needed help I wouldn’t have any!

It’s so much easier to tell people what they should do instead of actually doing it! And sometimes, you just need affirmation that what you’re doing isn’t going to scar your children for life. Asking for help is tough sometimes but with anything, the more you do it, the easier it gets. See, that was much easier for me to tell you that than actually adopt it myself. ;)

I cannot ask for help, but I am constantly craving it. My husband reminds me all the time that he can’t read my mind. I remind him all the time that he could think for himself! :) I’m even struggling right now with how to ask family members to watch my child so I can date my husband. Why can’t I just be supermom, superwife, and super take care of myself lady?

I can TOTALLY relate (especially with just the one child)! I’ve just really had to learn to have realistic expectations and not freak out – that’s not to say I haven’t. I’m a work in progress. ;)
