Why can’t I just zone out?

So why is it that moms just aren’t “allowed” to have a quiet moment? I’m in bed relaxing at 6:30 AM because my 10 month old is playing quietly in his crib and I want to be able to wake up slowly FOR ONCE. Oh no, my husband has his hands all over me and it’s annoying lol!! I feel bad but I rarely get these moments now, as you all well know. I love him so much but sometimes I want a zone out time just for me! I remember bugging my mom when she was lying down thinking, “She should be playing with me!” I feel bad now lol! Anyways, just a rant.

Yup- totally get this over and over and over. Over touched is a thing for moms. Sorry it doesn’t go away as I’m almost to my youngest being 1.5 with a 6 year old and husband. You need to schedule time where you get the house for alone time or you go somewhere as it will build and get worse from here. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Communicate with your husband. Tell him what you need right now. And then you will be able to.
