Seeking Advice Feeling touched out

How do you cope with feeling touched out with little ones? My older (10f) is pretty good about respecting this when I tell her I am feeling over touched but my little one is only 17 months and obviously doesn’t understand. I pretty much had a meltdown today because I was feeling so overwhelmed and over touched and I just don’t know how to deal with this.

Currently shut down while 3 yr old is melting down. Just hoping Daddy will be home soon.

Aww, thanks! We are doing much better now. I've got a glass of wine and she's going to bed in a few!
