You've got a toddler and a baby and you're thinking, "Oh my God, how can I cope?" Cut yourself some slack. It's a really hard stage of parenting and I promise you it gets better. Have the expectation that you just need to muddle through. Nothing needs to be perfect. When you're kind to yourself, things feel easier. And also ask for help. Getting help's a strength, not a weakness.
