Mum guilt…
Just really hoping I’m not alone in this one.. I’m currently 39 weeks pregnant so I’m exhausted! But with a 21 month old toddler on board it’s tricky somedays, feeling so guilty and deflated this week as my toddler has been playing up and just not listening, (almost as if he knows lots of change is coming) I don’t have much patience and it’s wearing so thin I often feel myself shouting and then sitting and cuddling, feeling bad straight afterwards! Anyone else or am I just been the worst mum🥺

38 weeks here with a very active, climbing toddler! It’s really rough so give yourself some grace. My partner has had to step up more this last week and the mum guilt is real. I’m now desperate for baby to arrive so I have energy and more patience with my toddler. I don’t have any advice but you’re not alone, all I keep thinking is we don’t have long now , we’ve done so well as pregnancy with a toddler is HARD!! X
I’m 34 weeks pregnant and I’ve got terrible pelvic pain and the guilt is horrible! I can’t wait to have make energy to play with him!

Pregnancy was straight up hell for me and I can’t imagine doing it again with my toddler right now Our May babies are at such a difficult time of learning they can think for themselves and so close to the terrible twos which is just them pushing boundaries constantly Please give yourself some grace you’re creating a little life that sucks all your energy I think you’re allowed to be exhausted I’ve been that exhausted myself recently when we all had flu and i feel so awful after I shout at my boy - I also apologised and gave them a cuddle Are you able to get some alone time to relax?
