I never thought I\u2019d share something like this, but I feel lost and alone. My husband, Matt, and I have been together for eight years and married for five. We always had a strong, loving relationship. But since our twins were born, everything has changed so much that I barely recognize us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMatt and I always wanted kids, and when we found out we were having twins, we were so happy. But no one really tells you how hard it is to raise two babies at once. The sleepless nights, the constant feedings, the endless diapers\u2014it\u2019s all so overwhelming. I love our boys so much, but I feel like I\u2019m sinking under all the pressure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She continued, \u201cSince the twins were born, my whole life has been focused on them. I\u2019m always tired, getting just a few hours of sleep each night. Matt helps, but he has to work long hours, so most of the childcare is on me. I know I\u2019ve been distant, and I feel bad about it, but I\u2019m too exhausted to do anything else. I haven\u2019t had a moment to myself in months, and our relationship has suffered.\u201cLast night, Matt told me he\u2019s thinking about leaving. He said he feels ignored, like I don\u2019t care about him anymore. He said he misses the way things used to be, just the two of us, and now he feels like he\u2019s not important to me. Hearing him say that broke my heart because the truth is, I miss us too. But I don\u2019t know how to be a good mom and a good wife when I\u2019m barely managing to get through the day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Emma added, \u201cI tried to tell Matt this is just a phase, that the boys won\u2019t always need this much attention, and that we\u2019ll find our way back to each other. But he looked so sad, like he had already made up his mind. I don\u2019t want to lose him, but I don\u2019t know how to fix this. How do I show him I still love him when I\u2019m too tired to even think?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow, I\u2019m sitting here, looking at my sleeping babies, wondering how I can choose between my husband and my children. I don\u2019t want to lose my marriage, but I don\u2019t want to fail as a mother either. What should I do?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Emma, a 29-year-old mother, has always been strong for her family, balancing work, home, and relationships easily.
