Kimmy you are so sweet to apologize, I hope you are feeling better today and a bit rested (if possible). Is little man feeling better?--- I hope he is.
I've been away camping so I've missed a lot these past 4 days here at PC.
Sorry your daughter has to deal with TMJ--- it can be so painful-- I have it also, since I was in my early 20's. I wear a nightguard to help. If her problem persists maybe you could look into that with her?... just an idea.
You said this regarding your mom: </font><blockquote><div id="quote"><font class="small">Quote:</font>
Then she gets frustrated because the baby might need me at the same time

Isn't it something when the mother gets upset at us for being there for a child that absolutely NEEDS the care. I'm sorry your mom was like that to you. My mom was angry at me -- 6 months after my dad passed away, my hubby was transferred 450 miles away for 15 months.... then my 5 year old became sick with bronchitus complicted with his asthma..... upon my anguish at the load I had, with working, caring for two small boys, one being real ill and my hubby so far away-- my boss wanting to get close to me since my husband was out of town, I had a weak moment and sobbed to my mom-- how tired I was from everything--- her angry reply was "at least your husband IS coming back"-- that was all she said.
Kimmy-- I understand not getting the support and trying so hard to be there for everyone--- please make sure you give to yourself too.
Kimmy--
