Parenting three small children w/o outside help is... extremely taxing. I’m gaining weight, losing sleep, losing mental sharpeness/clarity. And there is zero time to attend to anything else. This is not a parenting style I ever would have forseen as necessary.

hard same. we (3 kids - ages 4 and under) have been without our usual 25hrs/week childcare for a month and have no idea how this can go on for more months. time just turned into a painful everlasting present - the timeline of the damned.

Exactly the same here. 4 y.o., 3 y.o., 2 m.o. No daycare, no babysitter, no cousins, no time at grandma’s house. The baby keeps us up at night, the toddlers are non-stop during the day. We’re managing, but it’s relentless.

I don't blame you! I knew it would be hard, I've been parenting burnt out before, sometimes I feel guilty for buying more childcare than strictly necessary and have tried to earn more to accommodate that.

If we were still in our little apartment I would have walked out in the middle of the night 2+ weeks ago. we're still paying for it bc no one's renting but I almost don't care

Umm that suggests.. an option? Take turns taking breaks at old place? How far away is it?

it's occurred to me, only 1 mile away, but the building is large and I'm still in the facebook group, seems people are not distancing well there, not sure worth the risk to sit in a completely empty room for an hour
