How does any other single mom cope with having a new baby, studying law, have so many business to put?

up into action such as accountancy etc etc, housework, housewok, housework yeah i know but if the place not clean and tidy i wont be able to work mentally, cooking, cooking,cooking well yeah they have to eat proper,

playtime with baby, shopping, time for self including a bit of mediation which I haven't had the time, dealing with bills, have no support etc.. how do others cope..don't get me wrong its a buzz at least i'm busy but I want to cope with it all,as my studying falting a bit..pls dont say you have to manage time without examples or you have to put yourstudying and child first..plz

What I really should say is anyone studying an intense subject like law and trying to start up several biznesses with children..if Iwasn't studying or setting up my own biz wouldn't be an issue to highlight but I am and I love it as its progression of Self, just wanted to know whether other mothers were doing the same thing?? not just looking after thier kids

My mother had 7 kids and my dad died when the oldest was 12.

She did it.

No car, walked us to school everyday, went shopping for food, worked everyday, had the house clean, and dinner ready for us when we got home.

The thing is.. when you have a child you CAN'T do certin things for yourself if it's just you.

I have 3 and 1 on the way now and I work everyday, I do have a hubby but I still can't do things for myself. No expensive clothes, no hairdos, manicures.. it's all stuff you can live without.

Just keep your head high and concertrate on your child more than anything in the world.

I've seen girls do this and it is quite a feat.

Seek as much support from family as they are willing to give. Baby can spend an afternoon with Grandma sometimes. You go home and sleep.

Decide that you will have so many hours of activity, and what time your day ends. Say, 9 pm, everything stops, you take a shower and go to bed. ....

If you havent filed for child support go to the Family court offices, fill out the paperwork, turn it in, ask for a copy, and go to your court date. You do not need a lawyer for this. CS is retroactive to the day you file. Look into subsidized housing and daycare.

When you cook, make a double (triple) portion. Pull out the second meal when you're stressed for time.

Look into taking a good multi-vitamin daily.

Baby gets bigger. It does get easier. Hang in there. I think you're doing great.

You may get many responses with examples but the bottom line is "You have to organize yourself", nature sometimes plays very cruel and it will NOT grant you more than 24 hours in a day.

See if you can get help from your boyfriend (if he is still around), your parents, brothers, sisters, friends etc.

Reduce or eliminate unnecessary/unimportant work, minimize entertainment time, reduce travel time by planning.

But most of all give priority to your kids over all other businesses.

Best of luck.

How about looking into a Nanny/Personal Assistant? Maybe live-in?
