Hi all mummies! I am a mother of 3 young ones, 4.5yo, 3yo and 14.5mo. Am currently 27yo. Since #3 arrived, I have been feeling tired all the time. I'm really at my wits end. These feeling of exhaustion is killing me. I don't feel productive & makes me feel like a lousy mother. FYI I have been the only one handling night shifts to look after baby & kids alone since #1 arrived. Most of the time I look after all of them myself even if husband at home. I am so tired looking after them all the time and feeling exhausted and lethargic, my chores have been left untouched. How do you mummies get the energy to be up and about without feeling exhausted and lethargic if you have more than 2 kids with close age gaps and looking after them by yourself?

On top of all the great suggestions offered by the parents above, perhaps you can try taking a natural supplement of sorts to help you boost your energy? I find that royal jelly supplements help for me but be sure to check if it's safe to take if you're still breastfeeding. Naps whenever you can will also help and know that you're being a great mom regardless of how tired you may be. Take care mommy!
