In The Trenches of Motherhood.

[@Jennifer-bv4ku]

I only have one child, 17 months old boy, but definitely feel exhausted sometimes and needing a break. Feel like some days are non stop between sorting house bits, cooking, shopping and all that while trying to be there to entertain my toddler. I have little time to myself and it's not easy all the time. You are doing extremely well and I am so impressed by your approach especially with 3 kids! Superwoman ❤️

[@BethanyFontaine]

I find it such a challenging age. I have felt it with all 3 but I know it’s just a season. You’re doing great Jennifer! 🤍✨

This video came in time 🤗 totally same mood. So good to know I’m not alone…

[@BethanyFontaine]

Right there with ya. 🤍✨

[@tiamon03]

I 100% do the same thing when making dinner. It’s the kids tv time!

[@mamatofive1]

Love you, friend! ❤ Sometimes a ten minute escape to my bedroom is huge. I can come back out with renewed patience! Time outdoors can also change our day around in a big way. Thanks for sharing this today. So many mamas need to hear that they’re not alone 🥰

[@jessicaladd85]

Yes! Same. When its me in the kitchen my kiddos watch a show.

[@PocketTrailblazer]

Thank you for being so honest, this is just 100% true 🥰

Embracing the 'and' helps so much, i.e. I love my kids AND this is hard.

[@lifeacademyy]

Hi Bethany! I am also homeschooling my 4 year old. And I just came across your channel. Loved the last video u posted.

[@BethanyFontaine]

Thanks so much! Glad you're here!

Hi Bethany, thank you for this video. I was crying watching it because the last couple days with my 2y old have been tough, and on top of it the last two weeks have been really busy and I'm just feeling stressed, behind on housework and lacking "me" time. ♥️ It's always nice to know we're not going through motherhood alone.

[@loriyensho2053]

Thank you for sharing from your heart! I really needed this today. I have tears. Motherhood isn’t easy, but it’s worth it. ❤

[@BethanyFontaine]

SO WORTH IT! 🤍✨ Glad you felt encouraged.

[@calliejay8246]

💯💯💯 It's so hard because social media is constantly telling us, LOVE EVERY MOMENT, BE SO GRATEFUL, THEY ARE GETTING BIGGER EVERYYYYYY DAY! Sometimes the thick of it is just rough! The monotony and tantrums are so hard and the sweet moments are so precious. Both are true 😅😅😅 We got this mama 💪

[@BethanyFontaine]

Absolutely! There are two sides and it’s okay to feel both! ✨🤍

[@Kayla-on4lk]

Thank u, I needed this and u are an amazing Mama ❤

[@HiccupGirl234]

I’m right where you are right now (but with 2 kids). Thank you for sharing. And yes 4pm to bedtime is the HARDEST

[@victoriaf.]

I am right there with you! It’s been especially hard lately since I’ve been back to work and my husband and I work opposite shifts :(

[@BethanyFontaine]

I’m so so sorry. 😢 Those are hard seasons! We’ve gone through a season where we hardly saw my husband and I was basically a single parent. I hope things feel lighter for you soon. 🤍

[@hannahhensley8497]

Really needed this today. Feeling so overall crappy because I feel like I can't give enough of myself to any one obligation but simultaneously I'm completely depleted at times?

[@paularodriguez4378]

You’re the best!💝💝

[@PRAELIA_6]

I needed this. ❤

[@LucieVilimova]

This is what I needed to hear today ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I love your apron top. Where did you get it? Momming is hard sometimes that's for sure! I sometimes just stand looking around at everything needing done and feel so overwhelmed that I can't even start to get it done! It will pass and then the work gets done eventually lol The one thing that I have learned over the past 23 years of being a mom is this, no matter how I feel, I have to get the laundry done! I can't let that get out of control because then it's over for me lol

[@BethanyFontaine]

Yes absolutely. Just doing the next thing helps. Here’s the link for my apron! amzn.to/3I9B6ca

@@BethanyFontaine thanks so much 🙏

[@victoria_ann]

Survival mode is what I've been in. It's hard but all I can do is breathe and pray and now tomorrow is a new day. I get overstimulated everyday as well. 🤍
