I cannot stand to hear the words; 'it only gets worse'🙇🏼♀️ Thanks! For the support & confidence, I'll bear that in mind that next time I'm struggling🙄
I wouldn’t say “hurtful”, more annoying, but up until recently my mom was on my a** about potty training my son. He’s not even 2 and there’s no real need to potty train him yet. He’s perfectly fine. She just potty trained me early and therefore thinks I’m delaying him or something? She **finally** did some research and realised people are potty training later nowadays & backed off but holy it was driving my insane. As if diapers are harming him?!

It's not really hurtful to me, I was just super confused. I was told I was "spoiling her" because I breastfed, and I held her the whole time I was inside a house that had an aggressive dog and had piss on the floors
