Sleepless Mom

A blog for moms

May 10, 2017

Can I Survive The Terrible Twos?

With all the excitement of my daughter, Sophie, turning 2, I can’t help but wonder about everyone telling me to be aware of the terrible twos! I mean, how bad can it be? I already see a sassy side to her and the word “no” being used a lot more.

Is there anything to do to prepare? Can I do anything, or do I just let them happen and wait ’til she turns three?

The terrible twos - is there anything to do to prepare? Can I just let them happen and wait 'til she turns three?

The Terrible Twos

So many questions and so many people telling me scary stories of the “terrible twos,” and I’ve come to the realization that I can’t do anything!

She’s my daughter. I’m doing the best job I can, so bring it on twos!

It can’t be worse than cracked bloody nipples while breastfeeding or countless nights of zero sleep, can it?

In the end I’m just gonna embrace the twos and go with the flow. The fact that I have a baby coming in a few months isn’t gonna even allow me to realize the first stages of having a two year. I’m going into survival mode.

I’ll check back in with you all and let you know if I survived.

Jessica — Mom of Sophie

About Jessica

Jessica Sleepless Mom Welcome sleepless moms! I haven’t had a full nights rest in over 2 years. Why, you ask? Because like you, juggling a toddler and a baby, working, and finding time for myself has left me sleepless, yet full of joy.

The inspiration for my blog came from tirelessly searching online for the answers new moms have, just to find out there is no right answer. My hope and vision is to create a community for moms to comment and share real life stories with one another when Google just isn’t cutting it. Whether you have specific questions or just want to comment and relate, this is your space to ask your fellow moms advice and know you’re not the only one that screws up from time to time.

I have assembled a well-rounded team that’s here to share their struggles and successes with you, as well as offer support in any way possible. This is an interactive site and we are here to cater to your mom needs. Please feel free to contact our team members with new topics you want us to tackle or even simple questions about motherhood. That’s what we are here for….
