It's an extension of mom guilt. We feel like if baby cries in front of other people, we're doing something wrong, and they're judging us. But you'll find as you spend time around people that most of them understand. I've had so many strangers smile sympathetically or offer consolation and solidarity when my daughter is crying in public. There may be a few who get annoyed, but they're the minority who don't understand. It's no hardship to them, they'll get over it.
The first time you go out is the hardest. But you get used to it. Now he's 1 year old and I can't wait to go out with him 😂
My 6 week old screamed down TKMaxx cos she wanted a cuddle, they’re only babies and people who have kids know what it’s like
I felt the same! The first outing for us was a walk. I was dreading it but turned out to be so lovely and even though she was awake the whole time, she was so settled and looking around. Of corse nodded off as soon as we got home Ha. You will feel empowered once you’ve done it! Take pictures and enjoy it xxx
I felt the exact same and still feel it sometimes at 4 months but just keep trying. Exposure therapy 💓 you’ll get used to it and become more brave x
It happens. They're a baby. It just means they want something. If anyone gives you grief, tell them to grow up and get a life
