Don't give up on us, friend.
Labels tend to only mater much to those to whom they are assigned. So, for the first few years of my son’s life, I was just “Mama.” That’s it. Nothing more, nothing less. No special identifier.
So here are five things that other Special Needs Mamas like me wish you, our Neurotypical Mama friends, knew about our real lives…even if we are too afraid to ever say it out loud. Extreme parenting is next-level exhausting. Imagine how tired you were in your first and third trimester of parenting. If that level of tired and the kind when you had a newborn and also a toddler had its own baby, that would only serve to demonstrate a fraction of the amount of exhaustion parenting special needs kids really is each day.
So there is usually a VERY short list of people we trust to keep our kids and we are painfully aware of what we are asking someone when we seek childcare coverage. It makes most of us feel bad putting that weight on someone else and we know leaving our kiddos will likely mean we spend our time away just feeling anxious and guilty.
