September 2024 Babies 🇺🇸

I have been feeling down lately. My 2-year-old has a speech delay. We started ECI a couple of months ago, and even though I can see some progress, it is honestly still hard because sometimes I feel like it is my fault.

I also hate that every time I take her to gymnastics class, I can’t help but compare her to some of the other kids who are her age or even younger and seem much more advanced. I know I shouldn’t compare, but sometimes it is really difficult not to.

I have also been feeling overwhelmed because I recently enrolled her in daycare part-time, two days a week, so she could socialize and learn from other children. But by only her fourth day there, during her second week, the daycare director started telling me that she is the second oldest child in the class but is very behind compared to the others. I ended up taking her out of the daycare.

I just feel like there are so many milestones, steps, and checklists that children are expected to meet, and it can make motherhood feel so overwhelming. Sometimes it feels like people are so quick to judge your child or your parenting without knowing how much effort, love, time, and energy you are putting into helping your child every single day.

Motherhood is already hard enough without constantly feeling like you or your child are being compared to everyone else.

Just venting.
