Mum guilt
Does anyone else ever feel like the worst mum in the world? My LO is the absolute best thing to ever happen to me and I love them with everything I have. Sometimes I do get stressed out and lose my temper.. I have never properly shouted at LO, just sternly told her no but I live with my parents and siblings and they always make comments and it makes me feel guilty and then they call her a brat and tell me I need to discipline her. Sometimes when I take her up to bed I just sit there silently crying to myself once she's asleep. Sorry for the rant, I just feel horrible.

I genuinely am so exhausted and lonely. I don't have a partner to help so it's just me and her and I don't have anyone supporting me (I have no friends) its so horrible, I always thought I would be fine with being a single parent and I think I am.. but nothing prepared me for the exhaustion and loneliness.
I have my family but they make me feel more lonely than if they weren't there x
Understandable. I am now close to my sis and mum and I do have a best friend but she’s so exhausted and busy. Not her fault. Poor woman has too much on her plate. My point is, I feel lonely in people’s presence as I feel unseen and not understood. Sometimes people fail to realise, comments are not advice.
You can dm anytime. I will be here.

It’s the worst feeling ever. I feel so guilty and ashamed afterwards. Especially when she goes all silent. Like it’s just worst feeling in the whole universe. Unfortunately it’s very difficult to control as you are severely exhausted, lonely, and just overwhelmed. It makes me cry so much and I feel like I am always crying within
