I feel like an awful mum

I think it's natural to want some "me time" becoming a mum is pretty full on- and sometimes we need a breather. Don't feel bad for that x

Don’t feel awful. Yes you are a mum but you are also human and had an identity before becoming a mum. There is nothing wrong with wanting some time out, as being a mum to a new born can be intense and isolating. In fact I use the time when baby is sleeping and have a contact nap just to stare at my baby and see how amazing they are! ☺️

You’ve known freedom and ability to have ‘me time’ whenever you want, for x number of years do your life and all of a sudden that’s taken from you. I feel the same sometimes - think it’s totally normal and I’m sure you’re doing a great job! So long as your baby is fed, clean, well rested and generally well - I think you’re aceing it and have nothing to worry about. If you feel like this, maybe take more videos of spend 20-30 mins just entertaining and playing with them per wake window? Might make you feel better and less like you’re not making the most of these moments x
