Feeling guilty 🫠

Do you have someone who can help you with her? And are you taking time for yourself? I found that when I got overwhelmed it was because I was putting too much on myself. After forcing myself to ask for my husband in my case to take on more time with baby and forcing myself to go out and grab some coffee, get my nails done things like that it definitely helped me with that feeling of anxiety and overwhelmed when my baby had tantrums. I know there’s no way you can stop yourself from feeling guilty mom guilt is no joke, but I promise you you’re not the only one feeling overwhelmed it’s very common and taking for yourself is also doing good for your baby because a happy baby needs a happy mama💕💕💕💕

I feel you, my son fights sleep like no other and it is so exhausting! But if she’s teething liquid Tylenol has helped us. I also saw this article about first and last 3 minutes—it said to always try to be the most present and loving the first 3 minutes of baby waking, &3 minutes before they go to sleep, apparently their brain absorbs a lot during that time

You’re not alone, I feel the same way with my son. I wish I knew how to age more patience 🥹

Im on the same boat with my son and what I always try to just breath and hold him and he will stop (sometimes) so to help it I give him Tylenol or Motrin, then a warm bath, and he is breastfed so sometimes he wants my breast just for comfort, he is eating but he thinks my boobs are pacifiers 😐😂 I put a movie on (my son loves the good dinosaur and finding dory) and i just hug him since he gets in a koala position and I can just feel him getting heavier which means he is asleep. Everything will be okay momma don’t ever think you are a bad mom we carry a lot on our shoulders, sometimes I lose my patience on both of my kids (7yo and soon to be 9mo) and when I calm down the guilt hits me and I always go and say sorry but I wasn’t feeling alright and that’s why I yelled but I always remind them that I love them so much ❤️ even though my son may not understand what I’m saying my daughter does and she be telling me kind words that makes me feel like I’m not worthy of my daughter 😔

And my mom guilt hits even harder 💔😭

I definitely understand, like the other Moms mentioned try to ask for help so that you can care for yourself more daily! Also I’m praying for your strength ❤️

For me it's usually because he's been fussy a lot lately that I start getting a bit irritated. It's not starting over each new day fresh, it's building on the way I felt the day before. That's why taking time for myself is so important. I hate needing time away from him, but sometimes I do. And if I don't take it on purpose my body will make me take it later.

So much love and strength and gratitude for All you lovely mommas🥹💜 thank you so much for helping me feel so much less alone, I’ll be taking all the advice in💜
