Ladies-please remember to take time for yourselves. I find this to be difficult and then I get overwhelmed and lose it. I don't mean that you have to go out but just sit and breathe or take a hot bath. I sometimes will try to go to my mom's just to chat if I know one of our teenagers will be home. This site is great to come to just to read and connect with others in the same situation. It reenforces the fact that others have been where we are now and they've come through. Sending out strength and hope to you.
