What is it like to cook with children alone?

When is the most helpless time as a mother? I think it should be when cooking and eating. If you regularly cook a meal, it will take several times to complete it. I can't help but have a clingy baby who cries whenever I walk away.

Every time I see my child willing to play by himself or sleeping soundly, I rush to prepare vegetables and meat for soup. During this period, it took several times to complete it, so it was difficult to complete it in one go. Because the vegetables have to be washed and picked, and the meat needs to be washed and washed. During this time, the child is crying, and I can come over and watch and call her a few words. If the child does not cry, try to wash it once and put it aside for later use before playing with the child. Usually I make one dish and one soup. Occasionally I make soup and fried rice. One pot of soup is for lunch and dinner.

When it is almost time to eat, put the child in a safe place, put the soup down and cook the rice, and then continue to accompany the child. By the time the rice is cooked, the soup is almost done. You can start cooking. This is the time when it collapses most. There are vegetables being stir-fried in the pot, but I can't always step away and take a look, for fear that the vegetables will burn as soon as I leave. I could only listen to her cries in the kitchen. I had put her in a safety seat before cooking. I didn't worry about her falling, so I could only cook as quickly as possible. Quickly cook it, watch the child coax her, and then bring the vegetables and soup bowl over to eat.

After I left just now, it is already difficult to have a good meal. I can only hold her for a while, play with her, and wait until she is more willing to play by herself before going to have a bowl of soup. Then we continued to play with him, and later served a bowl of rice. During the meal, the child became impatient and refused to play by himself. When eating, I can only wolf it down, and I really can’t tell whether the food tastes good or not.

I used to like eating fish, but now I haven’t eaten fish for a long time. I am no longer allowed to eat and taste the food slowly. Eating fish takes too much time, and if I am not careful, I may get fish bones stuck in my throat.

Often when I come over to cook the dishes, the children will burst into tears. I feel really distressed and helpless, but I can’t help but eat. Originally, the mother of a baby had no income, and the father of the child did not earn much. My strength did not allow me to eat takeout often, and I was still breastfeeding. It was not healthy to eat takeout often.

I don’t know what it’s like to take care of your children alone to buy groceries and cook? This is what happened to me. Maybe it’s because my kids are clingy, so I’m so tired!
