Im pretty sure you're doing a wonderful job, cuddle that little one as much as you can whilst hes still little. It takes a while to get into routine, Remember to still look after yourself too and ask for support whenever you need it🥰
Also just to add, there was a point when I was able to tell what my baby needed and then there were days I’d feel really confused because I wasn’t picking up what he wanted from his cues but we aren’t always going to know! I say all of this but I was really hard on myself too, I then realised it’s all a learning experience and we will all eventually get through it x
He is still so young and you’re still adjusting to life as a mum. I use to get a bottle ready every three hourish to make sure one was ready and tried her with it before she got to the crying stage. It’s not easy, as Yasmin is said, don’t be hard on yourself
You are not a bad mum at all. It's a huge journey and none of us have it together, I still don't and my little one is 2. You're not a bad mum cause a bad mum wouldn't care. You will eventually find your own normal and you'll get through the new baby fog, just give yourself some slack and remember to take care of yourself too. You're doing a great job xxxx
Thank you ladies, your words are kind and helpful xxx
Sending a huge hug, I have exactly the same with my son where he is sick often and I find him lying in it I feel awful but he is ok!
Sweetie I'm on baby number 6 and he is 12 weeks Old and I'm not perfect even after all My practice as mum's we learn as we go there isn't a manual and your wee boy isn't going to be affected by a bit of sick you mop it up and carry on there be mistakes and hiccups it's part of being a mum don't be so hard on your self the other night I was so tired my little man didn't even have the bottle in his mouth it was more or less up his nose lol
You're doing a great job, trust me. I was in the same situation and still having a hard time, my baby has reflux, she's sleeping just on my chest, she loves being held, but sometimes I have to put her down as she's nearly 5kg, I can't hold her all day and all night, she's crying but sometimes you need to get some energy and some time.. it is like a full time job, but there's a break as well. 🤍
Sooo many times I looked over to my baby laying in sick on her play mat and it was in her ear or all in the back of her hair! She was a secret spitter we said! She did it in the 1 second I wasn’t looking at her 😂 she was absolutely fine apart from smelling of sick! If that’s the worst thing that’s happening I’d say your doing amazing ❤️
My baby has silent reflux and there’s been times when I’ve woken up to him being some of his sick but these things happen! The fact you care this much shows you’re a brilliant Mum. Please don’t be hard on yourself, it’s not easy being a parent xx
