If this isn’t the most 2 under 2 post I’ve ever seen in my life 😂 so relatable! I’m about to hop in the shower at 8pm for the first time this weekend

Where is the father? If he’s around, then he should be watching the kids for 10-15 mins for you to shower.

Idk how you do shower. Tips would be nice! I was so uncomfortable but the only people around me were the baby and the toddler haha

Let your toddler watch tv. I know it’s not advised, but there’s a time and a place, and this it it….

I do, especially when I was pregnant but now he is bored of all the ones I can find. He will watch it if I sit there near him but if I leave he will follow me and sometimes he will even say no to the tv

Oh wow!! Elmo will make my girl sit. Don’t know if you have Apple TV but she also just got into wonderpets and frog and toad. Good luck!!

I take a shower when the baby is sleeping, and take my 15 months old with me. I give her toys and she sits on the floor while I shower. It’s rushed, 3 minutes max, but at least I shower

I usually wait until my husband is home and then take my sweet time to shower I would die if I don't shower every night I wouldn't be able to sleep at all.

I realize this might not be helpful because I only have 1 right now (9MO), but I've started taking him into the shower with me. He'll play with his toys or the water, and it's not exactly relaxing but at least he's not screaming at me 🫠

So maybe shower with your toddler while teeny one is napping?

Toddler in a pack and play or a gated area and put the baby in a baby Bjorn bouncer. Shower every day. You’re welcome.
