RESPITE!!
I had a 14 yr, 7, 4, and 2 fosters aged 5 months and 3 days. I managed for 2 months (barely) before I called the social worker and said since one of the fosters was going to be available to adopt he should go to a home where they were waiting for a baby boy. I used another foster home as respite for the newborn just so I could sleep a couple of nights all night...
I think alot of people just do respite. I paid the respite woman (she was a pediatric nurse) directly.
Good luck and get a break!
Oh, the baby boy we had for 2 months is getting adopted!
